Keinbock’s disease or Avascular Necrosis of lunate bone is a rare disorder leading to abnormal carpal motion. Although difficult to diagnose, detection in early stages of the disease and appropriate management can lead to a good functional outcome. Here, the authors present a case of 36 year old male who presented with Avascular necrosis of lunate bone of right wrist with Lichtman’s stage IIIA. The patient underwent joint levelling procedure by radial shortening osteotomy and associated benign cyst or geode drained and bone grafted. At 1 year follow up, patient had complete relief of pain and improved range of movement at the wrist joint without any further progression of the disease.
