Abstract
Partial capitate shortening osteotomy represents a feasible surgical approach to reduce load distribution to the lunate in Kienböck disease, with preservation of the scaphoid-capitate articular surface. A surgical procedure, presented here, entails arthroscopic partial resection of the proximal capitate articular surface to alleviate pressure on the lunate.
