1. Bony Anatomy of the Wrist: Ulnar Side
This chapter explores the bony anatomy at the ulnar side of the wrist including the distal radius and ulna as well as the ulnar and central carpals. Understanding the bony anatomy sets the stage for understanding the need for ligamentous support.
2. Ligamentous Anatomy of the Wrist: Ulnar Side
This chapter unravels the ligamentous anatomy at the ulnar side of the wrist including the extrinsic, interosseous, and DRUJ ligaments. We develop an understanding of how these structures allow for, but also restrict motion and set the stage for, what happens when injury occurs.
3. Assessment of Ulnar Wrist Pain
This chapter explains the main components of a systematic wrist exam. This includes obtaining a detailed history, performing an active screen, assessing passive mobility to determine if a capsular pattern is present, and completing resisted testing.
4. Assessment of Ulnar Wrist Pain: Special Tests
The final chapter will build upon the basic clinical assessment by outlining and demonstrating the special tests that may be needed to conclude your exam, complete differential diagnosis, and improve your confidence in your findings. Tests for TFCC pathology, L-T instability, and midcarpal instability will be discussed.
