A Novel Technique in Treatment of Midcarpal Instability: HammockTechnique

ABSTRACT
Background Midcarpal instability (MCI) is a relatively uncommon yet disabling condition that manifests with wrist pain, weakness, and diminished grip strength. Diagnosis is primarily clinical, supported by dynamic imaging modalities such as video fluoroscopy and 4D CT. Initial management typically involves non-operative measures including patient education, activity modification, pain control, dynamic splinting, hand therapy, and proprioceptive training. Surgical intervention is considered in cases refractory to conservative treatment.
