The objective of this prospective multi-centre study was to determine functional and subjective outcomes of patients with TFCC-lesions after arthroscopy of the wrist.Out of fourty-two centres, one hundred and thirty one patients were recrutated. Only patients with TFCC-lesion verified by wrist arthroscopy were included. Excluding criteria were infections, wafer-procedure, instability of the distal radio-ulna joint (DRuJ), revision-operations, neurological disorder and abuses of alcohol or drugs. The follow-up was preoperatively, 3 and 12 months after surgery. Objective and subjective parameters were the range of motion (ROM), grip strength, pain (VAS) and the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire (DASH) score.
