Wrist Imaging: Ligaments and Triangular Fibrocartilage
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MR arthrography are both effective means to evaluate the instrinsic and extrinsic ligaments of the wrist, as well as the triangular fibrocartilage (TFC) [1-6]. High resolution detail of the wrist can be achieved with a variety of magnet strengths, with 1.5 Tesla (T) and 3T being the most commonly utilized in current practice. Dedicated wrist coils are critic...
متن کاملTriangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC)
ANATOMY The TFCC is a fibrocartilage-ligament complex which stabilizes the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), transmits axial load between the carpus and the ulna, and stabilizes the ulnar aspect of the carpus. The TFCC is comprised of the disc proper (articular disc), meniscus homologue, ulnolunate ligament, ulnotriquetral ligament, proximal ligamentous component, volar and dorsal radioulnar liga...

متن کاملTriangular fibrocartilage complex tears: a review.
Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears are a common source of ulnar sided wrist pain. Originally described by Palmer, in 1981, as a complex of several structures, our understanding of the anatomy and the function of the TFCC has been refined by histologic studies. The TFCC plays an important role in load bearing across the wrist as well as in distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) stabilization...
متن کاملTriangular fibrocartilage complex lesions: a classification.
Based on anatomic and biomechanical studies and review of our clinical experience of the past 10 years, a classification of injuries to the triangular fibrocartilage complex is presented. This classification is based on the clinical examination, routine x-ray films, wrist arthrograms, wrist arthroscopy, and wrist arthrotomy. The classification recognizes both traumatic and degenerative lesions....
