Abstract

Dorsal SLIOL sectioning produced load-dependent (dynamic) SL instability, whereas subsequent DSTL sectioning was associated with progression to static instability, supporting the DSTL as an important dorsal restraint. The DISA may provide an additional CT-based measure of dorsal scaphoid subluxation; however, clinical validation is required.
