    Ulnar carpal translation following palmar locking plate fixation for distal radius fractures: a retrospective analysis

    Ulnar carpal translation (UCT) is a sequelae that mainly results from wrist ligament injury or attenuation, commonly seen in rheumatoid arthritis [ 1 ]. Post-traumatic UCT, first described by Linscheid et al. in 1972, is relatively uncommon [ 2 , 3 …]. The radioscaphocapitate and palmar radiolunate ligaments play a key role in preventing UCT. Injuries to these ligaments can occur in various wrist injury mechanisms, and multiple ligaments may be involved [

    Morphometrics of the coronoid process and the radial notch of the ulna: implications for fracture assessment

    The coronoid process (CP) of the ulna is an important stabilizer of the elbow joint. Biomechanical and clinical studies have highlighted the crucial role of the coronoid process as an anterior buttress in the elbow joint, preventing joint …

    MDCT evaluation of distal radius fractures and their association with carpal and distal ulnar fractures

    The wrist joint has a complex anatomy consisting of articulations between the distal radius and ulna and the carpal bones with many surrounding ligaments and soft tissues reinforcing the joint surfaces. Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are most …

    The Radiographic Union Score for ulnar fractures (RUSU) predicts ulnar shaft nonunion

    Isolated ulna shafts fractures are commonly caused by a direct blow to the raised forearm, known as a nightstick fracture [ 1 ]. Studies have shown that these injuries occur at a rate of 4 to 20 per 100,000 population per year [ 2 , 3 ]. One of the …

    Retrospective interobserver agreement on diagnoses of 4th and 5th carpometacarpal fracture-dislocation and hamate fracture in plain X-ray – Is CT essential after ulnar carpometacarpal pain?

    Fracture-dislocation or subluxation of the 4th and 5th carpometacarpal joints (FD CMC 4–5) can be associated with other hand injuries such as hamate fracture [ 1 ]. Hamate fractures represent 2–15% of all carpal fractures [ 2 ], and were classified …

    “Mother and baby plate”: a strategy to improve stability in proximal fractures of the ulna

    Comminuted fractures and fracture fixation in poor bone quality confront the surgeon with major challenges. Particularly in regions close to joints with high physiological loading of the bone, such as distal femur fractures or proximal tibial …

    Ulna hook plate osteosynthesis for ulna head fracture associated with distal radius fracture

    Fracture of the distal head or neck of the ulna is an uncommon injury [ 1 – 3 ]. These fractures are rarely isolated, and are frequently associated with distal radius fractures. Distal ulna fractures are combined with distal radius fracture in 5.6% …

    Ulnar shaft stress fractures in fast-pitch softball pitchers: a case series and proposed mechanism of injury

    Given the current popularity of organized sports for children and adolescents, awareness and recognition of skeletal stress injuries are important for sports medicine physicians and radiologists alike. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of …

    Outcomes of distal ulna locking plate in management of unstable distal ulna fractures: a prospective case series

    The distal ulna and the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) are essential structures for forearm rotation. Loss of supination and pronation impedes the function of the upper limb and, subsequently, activities of daily living. The restoration of forearm …

    Radial distraction may reduce the incidence of ulnar-sided wrist pain in ulna-plus morphology intraoperatively following distal radius fractures fixation

    Residual ulnar-sided wrist pain (USWP) is not uncommon following treatment of distal radius fractures (DRFs) [ 1 ]. Many of the symptoms that patients with USWP coexisting with the DRFs may be caused by ulnar impaction syndrome [ 2 ] …

    Comparison of the midterm result between locking plate and elastic intramedullary nail treating oblique ulnar fracture Bado type I acute monteggia fracture in pediatric patients

    Monteggia fracture was first described by an Italian surgeon, Giovanni Batista Montage, in 1814 as an ulnar fracture, usually in the proximal edge with an associated radial head dislocation [ 1 ]. In 1967 Bado classified Monteggia fractures into …

    Correction to: Comparing radial lengthening osteotomy with ulnar shortening osteotomy to treat ulnar impaction syndrome after distal radius fracture malunion

    The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake. Affiliation details of Yi‑Chou Chen and Yi‑Chao Huang were incorrect.

    Ultrasound assistance in treatment with elastic stable intramedullary nail fixation in radial and ulnar fractures in children

    Radial and ulnar fractures are the most common fractures in children, accounting for approximately 5–10% of all paediatric fractures [ 1 ]. To treat these midshaft fractures, closed reduction and immobilization by cast are the first choices [ 2 ].

    Distal radius fracture with concomitant ulnar styloid fracture: does distal radioulnar joint stability depend on the location of the ulnar styloid fracture?

    Distal radius fracture (DRF) is one of the most common fractures in the upper extremity [ 1 ]. Previous studies have reported that concomitant ulnar styloid fracture (USF) and combined triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury are present in …

    Distal ulna fractures in adults—subcapitular, transverse fractures did not benefit from surgical treatment

    Falling over on an outstretched hand with an extended wrist is a common cause of injury seen in every emergency department. This trauma can cause a multitude of injuries in the wrist, most commonly fractures of the distal radius. Fractures of the …
