Dorsal intercarpal ligament capsulodesis for scapholunate dissociation: Biomechanical analysis in a cadaver model

The purpose of this study was to evaluate in cadavers a new method for treating scapholunate dissociations, dorsal intercarpal ligament capsulodesis (DILC), and to compare its perfomance with that of a previously described soft tissue reconstruction, Blatt capsulodesis (BC). A cadaver model was used...
