Background: The purpose of this study is to describe the medium-term results of arthroscopic resection of dorsal wrist ganglia using the “dry technique". Methods: Twenty two patients (22 wrists) were retrospectively evaluated with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Eleven women and 11 men with an average age of 29 years (18-57). In all cases a clinical evaluation was performed preoperatively, at 1 month, and at the last control. Comparative wrist motion and grip strength, pain and function according with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), functional scores QuickDASH and Wrightington, labor return and intra-postoperative complications were evaluated. Mean follow-up was 42 months (24-60). Statistical analysis was performed by testing T. Results: Two cases of ganglion recurrence appeared. No other intra-surgical complications was reported. Wrist motion and grip strength improved significantly, reaching 99% and 100%, respectively. Pain and function also improved significantly, as the functional score QuikDASH. According to the score of Wrightington, 18 cases were excellent, 3 good, and 1 poor. Twenty one of the 22 patients returned to their tasks without limitation, referring 20 of them to be satisfied with the final result. Conclusion: Arthroscopic resection using the "dry technique " represents a safe and effective alternative for the treatment of dorsal wrist ganglia, achieving pain relief, and functional and aesthetic improvement in most patients with early rehabilitation and a low incidence of recurrence. Level of Evidence: IV Key words: wrist arthroscopy, dorsal wrist ganglia, ganglionectomy.
