All-arthroscopic repair of Palmer 1B triangular fibrocartilage complex tears using the FasT-Fix device.
J Hand Surg Am. 2011; (5): 836-42
The FasT-Fix device (Smith and Nephew Endoscopy, Andover, MA), initially developed for knee meniscal tears, is described for all-arthroscopic triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) repairs. Potential benefits of this technique are ease of use, the lack of prominent suture knots, and strength of repair. This case series evaluates the early clinical outcomes of this technique.
