Abstract

Partial capitate shortening osteotomy represents a feasible surgical approach to reduce load distribution to the lunate in Kienböck disease, with preservation of the scaphoid-capitate articular surface. A surgical procedure, presented here, entails arthroscopic partial resection of the proximal capitate articular surface to alleviate pressure on the lunate.<br />Competing Interests: Conflicts of Interest No benefits in any form have been received or will be received related directly to this article.<br /> (Copyright © 2025 American Society for Surgery of the Hand.
