Abstract:
The TFCC bears axially applied load and stabilizes the distal radioulnar joint. Palmer's classification of TFCC lesions into traumatic and degenerative injuries allows a rational approach to treatment. Wrist arthroscopy provides both diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities in the treatment of these lesions.
