Complications and Prevention

Complication	Prevention
Chondral injuries and osteolysis due to protrusion and implant loosening	Precision should be used in the placement of the implant, and the surgeon should ensure its complete introduction into the articular surface.
Rupture of ligament flap on passing the suture through the tissue	Care should be taken when passing the suture through a flap that must have sufficient tissue. The surgeon should attempt to pass the suture with a precise movement and, if possible, in a single attempt.
Entrapment of extensor digitorum communis tendons on performing the dorsal capsular reinforcement	The surgeon should ensure that the recovery of the suture, as from the midcarpal joint and the radiocarpal one, is performed through the interval between the dorsal capsule and the tendons and not through the subcutaneous space.
Recurrence of the initial injury due to the distension or rupture of the repair	The surgeon should adhere to the indications and protocols of immobilization and rehabilitation.
