    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Hand Surgery
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Ulnar carpal instability is an underdiagnosed condition affecting wrist function.
    • Instability primarily involves the triquetrolunate and triquetrohamate articulations.

    Observation:

    • Pathomechanics of ulnar carpal instability are complex.
    • Diagnostic challenges exist in identifying subtle instability patterns.

    Findings:

    • Triquetrolunate and triquetrohamate instabilities represent significant patterns of ulnar carpal dysfunction.
    • Review synthesizes current knowledge on pathomechanics, diagnosis, and treatment.

    Implications:

    • Improved understanding aids in accurate diagnosis and timely intervention for ulnar carpal instability.
  • Case reports highlight clinical presentations and management strategies for these specific joint instabilities.
