Abstract
Kienböck's disease is a type of avascular necrosis which disrupts the biomechanics of the wrist as a result of the changes it creates in the lunate bone. Its treatment generally consists of osteotomies intended to relieve the pressure on the bone, pedicle bone grafting applications aiming to increase bone blood supply, and salvage procedures. Capitate forage is a safe and simple-to-apply surgical treatment method which is intended to enhance neovascularization of the lunate much like a radius osteotomy or core decompression
