Steven J. Lee, MD (New York, NY), discusses his experience with the use of the InternalBrace™ procedure for scapholunate ligament injuries.
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
