This technique addresses the osseous cause to DRUJ instability and avoids the need for complex soft tissue procedures to treat chronic volar instability or salvage procedures to treat dorsal instability of the DRUJ associated with an impacted fracture of the dorsal rim of the sigmoid notch.enCopyright © 2008, Lippincott Williams & WilkinsSigmoid notchosteoplastyosteotomyDRUJ instabilitySigmoid notch osseous reconstructionJournal article002007442710.1097/bth.0b013e31803309552-s2.0-3424760347346361Bain, G.
