Ulnar Deviation of the Fingers

Ulnar deviation of the fingers.

Ulnar deviation of the fingers at their metacarpophalangeal joints is perhaps the most characteristic deformity of rheumatoid arthritis. Nineteenth-century clinicians, among others Garrod (1859) and Charcot (1881), were impressed by its occurrence in chronic arthritis, but no views on the development of the deformity were recorded. The current opinion, that it results from gravity, is open to o...

Ulnar deviation is not always rheumatoid.

Normal ranges of ulnar and radial deviation with reference to ulnar variance.

We aimed to determine the normal ranges of radial and ulnar deviation of the wrist in relation to the ulnar variance. A total of 102 healthy subjects (204 wrists) were included in the study. The ranges of radial and ulnar deviation of the wrists were measured using a universal goniometer. Ulnar variance was assessed manually or radiographically, and recorded as ulna minus, ulna plus or ulna min...

Ulnar paddlefish carpometacarpal dislocation of the three lesser fingers: a case report

The long fingers' paddlefish carpometacarpal (CMC) dislocation is exceptional. Most dislocations occur after high energy trauma. Untreated, these lesions can result in chronic instability of the CMC joints and early osteoarthritis. We report the case of a 20-year-old patient presenting with an ulnar paddlefish CMC fracture-dislocation of the three lesser fingers resulting from a hand trauma in ...
