The wrist

• Carpal tunnel syndrome – Dr. Sutker uses a minimally invasive approach to treating this condition. His approach takes about 20 minutes and offers superior clinical results, faster recovery and less recurrence.

• Wrist arthroscopy – By employing advanced technology to tighten loose ligaments and structures in the wrist, Dr. Sutker often can restore function without the need for a partial wrist fusion, which may result in permanent loss of motion. He also does minimally invasive arthroscopic treatment of scaphoid fractures for accelerated recovery. He also works with:

• Instability of the wrist – He uses the latest arthroscopic techniques, which can successfully restore stability to the bones and ligaments of the wrist. Because these techniques are minimally invasive, there is less scarring and faster recovery time.

• Total wrist arthroplasty – By incorporating a state-of-the-art implant, Dr. Sutker can improve your grip strength as well as provide superior range of motion.

• Distal radius fracture – Dr. Sutker treats this with internal fixation, which can help get the wrist moving within days after surgery, not months as with previous methods.

Dr. Sutker also offers specialized treatment for rheumatoid deformities of the wrist, wrist fractures, ganglion cysts, De Quervain’s tendonitis, extensor tendon injuries and the latest vascularized grafts for Kienböck’s disease.
