We describe a method for stabilising the distal radioulnar joint using a double breasted slip of extensor retinaculum. This is a retrospective series of 30 patients with a painful wrist secondary to instability of the distal radioulnar joint. The results were assessed by a modified Mayo Score. The mean follow-up was for 38.1 months (13 months to 8 years). Twelve patients had excellent, 16 good and 2 fair outcomes. One patient had experienced temporary numbness in the distribution of the dorsal branch of the ulnar nerve. The modified Mayo wrist score increased from a pre-operative mean of 23.89 (10 to 50) to a final mean of 94.4 (85 to 100). Stabilisation of the distal radioulnar joint by the method of using a double breasted slip of the extensor retinaculum gives satisfactory results. The procedure is simple and reproducible.
