Arthroscopic Diagnosis and Treatment of Dorsal Wrist Syndrome in Patients With Synovial Hypertrophy

An interventional study of arthroscopic synovectomy and thermocoagulation in Synovial Hypertrophy Hand (Diagnosis), sponsored by Consorci Sanitari Integral. Status unknown at 1 site in Spain. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 65 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-12-01.

Study summary

The objective of the study is to evaluate de results of the arthroscopic diagnose and arthroscopic treatment of the dorsal wrist pain syndrome associated with dorsal synovial hypertrophy.

It is a prospective study of 25 consecutive patients with the diagnosis of dorsal wrist radiographies and MRI) have discarded other concomitant pathologies. After being refractory to the conservative measures consisting in physiotherapy for at least 3 months, a wrist arthroscopy will be performed with diagnostic and treatment objectives. All these procedures will be performed by the same surgical team. Only will be included those patients whose diagnostic arthroscopy show absence of other concomitant lesions as scapho-lunate or luno-triquetral tears, triangular fibrocartilage injuries, chondral injuries, fractures, arthritis or other injuries that will be considered as exclusion criteria. In those cases where a hypertrophy of the dorsal synovial is confirmed, an arthroscopic synovectomy and radiofrequency thermocoagulation of the hypertrophic synovial will be performed. The standard radiocarpal portals for wrist arthroscopy will be performed: 3-4 portal and 6-R portal.

The pain syndrome described as dorsal localized wrist pain, especially reproductible in hyperextension and axial load of the wrist and in whom the complementary tests (plain The following data will be reviewed and analyzed: age, sex, right/left wrist, right/left-handed, anamnesis, physical exam, MRI findings, arthroscopic diagnosis and functional outcome through Mayo score as a main viable and also, VAS(visual analogue scale for pain), DASH score, grip strength measured with jamar dynamometer and articular balance. All these parameters will be registered pre-surgery and post-surgery at 6 weeks, 3 months and 12 months of the follow-up and at the end of follow-up. The minimum follow-up will be at least of 12 months.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in the Mayo wrist score

    Assessment of the changes of Mayo score, before the intervention and at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the intervention. The Mayo wrist score ranges from 0 to 100 with a score of 0 indicating a worse wrist condition and 100 indicating a better wrist condition.

    Time frame: Before intervention, 3 months after intervention, 6 months after intervention, 12 months after intervention

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Dec 1, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
