description Carpometacarpal boss is a symptomatic bony prominence on the dorsal surface of the wrist at the base of the second and/or third metacarpal. Wedge excision of the carpometacarpal boss is indicated if conservative treatment fails to relieve the symptoms. Complications of wedge resection include symptomatic recurrences and carpometacarpal instability. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the technical details of endoscopic resection of carpometacarpal boss and synovectomy of the second carpometacarpal joint. This may reduce the amount of bone and joint resection and risk of carpometacarpal instability.
