Aims. Patients with midcarpal instability are difficult to manage. It is a rare condition, and few studies have reported the outcomes of surgical treatment. No prospective or retrospective study has reported the results of arthroscopic palmar capsuloligamentous suturing. Our aim was to report the results of a prospective study of arthroscopic suture of this ligament complex in patients with midcarpal instability. Methods. This prospective single-centre study was undertaken between March 2012 and May 2022. The primary outcome was to evaluate the functional outcomes of arthroscopic palmar midcarpal suture. The study included 12 patients, eight male and four female, with a mean age of 27.5 years (19 to 42). They were reviewed at three months, six months, and one year postoperatively. Results. There was a significant improvement in flexion, extension, grip strength, abbreviated version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire score, and pain, in all patients. After telephone contact with all patients in March 2023, at a mean follow-up of 3.85 years (2.2 to 6.25), no patient had a persistent or recurrent clunk. Conclusion. Arthroscopic suture of the midcarpal capsuloligamentous complex represents a minimally invasive, easy, and reproducible technique for the management of patients with midcarpal instbility, with a clear improvement in function outcomes and no complications.
