The aim of this study is to report outcomes of DSR using the Mini-TightRope\u2122 for STT arthritis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods: We retrospectively evaluated four female patients (four wrists; mean age: 71 years) who underwent this procedure between 2018 and 2020, with a mean follow-up of 72 months. Clinical and radiographic outcomes, including pain (visual analogue scale [VAS]), grip strength, DASH-JSSH scores, trapezial subsidence and dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI), were assessed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results: The mean VAS improved from 6.0 to 1.0 and the DASH-JSSH score from 59.0 to 19.5. Grip strength was 13.9 kg (97% of the contralateral side), and the trapezial height was well maintained with minimal subsidence. DISI developed in all patients (mean radiolunate angle: 9.3\u00b0\u201332.7\u00b0) but remained asymptomatic, and no complications or revisions occurred.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions: This simple, tissue-preserving technique provided satisfactory outcomes for isolated STT osteoarthritis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Level of Evidence: Level IV (Therapeutic)<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s2424835526500554","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,12]],"date-time":"2026-10-12T02:15:36Z","timestamp":1791771336000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Distal Scaphoid Resection with Suspensionplasty Using the Mini-TightRope\n                    <sup>TM<\/sup>\n                    for Scaphotrapeziotrapezoid Osteoarthritis: A Case Series"],"prefix":"10.1142","author":[{"given":"Takanobu","family":"HIGASHI","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe University, Kobe, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Atsuyuki","family":"INUI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe University, Kobe, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yutaka","family":"MIFUNE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe University, Kobe, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ryosuke","family":"KURODA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kobe University, Kobe, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,8]]},"container-title":["The Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume)"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S2424835526500554","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,12]],"date-time":"2026-10-12T02:15:39Z","timestamp":1791771339000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/10.1142\/S2424835526500554"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,8]]},"references-count":0,"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S2424835526500554"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s2424835526500554","relation":{},"ISSN":["2424-8355","2424-8363"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2424-8355","type":"print"},{"value":"2424-8363","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,8]]},"article-number":"S2424835526500554"}}
