Journal ArticleDOI

The triangular fibrocartilage complex of the wrist-Anatomy and function

TL;DR: The TFCC was found to be perforated in 53% of specimens dissected, and all of the wrists with a demonstrable perforation showed evidence of damage or erosion of the cartilage of the lunate and/or distal ulna.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanics of the distal radioulnar joint.

TL;DR: Better understanding of the anatomy and newer knowledge of the biomechanics of the distal radioulnar joint should herald an ulnar wrist renaissance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional wrist motion: a biomechanical study.

TL;DR: The wrist joint was found to have three degrees of freedom (flexion-extension, radioulnar deviation, and rotation), which is outside the normal functional range of wrist motion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ulnar variance determination.

TL;DR: A template utilizing curves of various radii has been developed for accurately measuring ulnar variance from standard posterioranterior radiographs of the wrist and it is determined that this measurement can most accurately and consistently be performed with the forearm in neutral rotation and the elbow flexed 900°.
