    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Ulnar impingement syndrome, a painful wrist condition, results from a shortened ulna impacting the distal radius. This often follows wrist injuries and requires careful management to avoid further complications.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Hand Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Ulnar impingement syndrome is a painful condition caused by a shortened ulna.
    • It leads to pseudarthrosis due to the ulna impinging on the distal radius.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinical presentation and radiographic findings of ulnar impingement syndrome.
    • To discuss the management of distal radio-ulnar joint dysfunction.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 11 cases of ulnar impingement syndrome.
    • Clinical examination and radiographic analysis.

    Main Results:

    • Ten cases resulted from distal ulna excision post-injury; one from growth arrest after fracture.
    • Symptoms include painful, clicking wrist and weak grip.

  • Radiographs often show distal radius scalloping.
  • Conclusions:

    • Ulnar impingement syndrome is a disabling condition often linked to prior wrist trauma.
    • Excision of the distal ulna is not recommended for young patients with traumatic distal radio-ulnar joint dysfunction.
