Hand Clinics, 1987
Reconstructive surgery of the distal radioulnar joint should be considered for those in the age range of 20 to 50 years, particularly in those patients having sustained a high-energy injury and in cases where there is a great demand on the wrist joint for heavy work and sports activities.

ARTHROSCOPY OF THE DISTAL RADIOULNAR JOINT
Hand Clinics, 1999Arthroscopy of the distal radioulnar joint is a natural extension of radiocarpal arthroscopy and can be a useful tool for certain conditions that affect this small joint. Arthroscopy provides a minimally invasive means of evaluating the distal radioulnar joint and enables visualization of the articular surfaces, synovium, and undersurface of the ...

Disorders of the Distal Radioulnar Joint
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2015The distal radioulnar joint is responsible for stable forearm rotation. Injury to this joint can occur following a variety of mechanisms, including wrist fractures, ligamentous damage, or degenerative wear. Accurate diagnosis requires a clear understanding of the anatomy and mechanics of the ulnar aspect of the wrist. Injuries can be divided into three

Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability
Journal of Orthopaedic TraumaSummary: The distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is vital to the stability and function of the wrist and forearm. The osseous morphology is variable and provides little stability. A complex of confluent soft tissues is the primary stabilizer; however, the contribution of each component has yet to be elucidated.

Evolution of the Distal Radioulnar Joint
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1992The evolution of the wrist joint began 400 million years ago with the pectoral fins in primitive fish. The five-rayed extremity with 13 carpal bones and a syndesmotic distal radioulnar joint first appeared in the primitive amphibian, Eryops, some 230 million years ago.

Imaging the Distal Radioulnar Joint
Hand Clinics, 2010Imaging the DRUJ requires knowledge of the complex bony, muscular, and ligamentous anatomy that contribute to this unique joint. Standard well-positioned radiography is always the appropriate first step in any imaging evaluation of the wrist. High-resolution MRI of the wrist, preferably performed at 3T, helps to delineate the important ligamentous ...

Instability of the distal radioulnar joint
Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2014The distal radioulnar joint is a complex structure necessary for forearm motion and force transmission across the wrist. Anatomic and biomechanical advances have revealed broad contributions to distal radioulnar joint stability and refined our understanding of the forces acting across it.

Distal Radioulnar Joint Dysfunction
Hand Clinics, 1987Dislocations of the DRUJ, when diagnosed promptly, may be successfully treated by closed reduction and immobilization. Symptomatic tears of the TFCC may be decompressed by ulnar shortening with or without debridement of the tear. Several operations are available for the treatment of derangements of the DRUJ.

Arthroscopy of the Distal Radioulnar Joint
Handchirurgie · Mikrochirurgie · Plastische Chirurgie, 2014Wrist arthroscopy is now widely indicated for diagnosis and treatment of acute or chronic wrist pain, especially for triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) lesions, as a gold standard. In most cases radiocarpal and midcarpal arthroscopy was performed, while DRUJ arthroscopy has been rarely performed because of its difficulties.

DISTAL RADIOULNAR JOINT INSTABILITY
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2006The distal radioulnar joint is inherently unstable. Pathologic instability can be acute or chronic; it can be dorsal, palmar, or multidirectional; and it can result primarily from soft-tissue injury or osseous malunion. Recognition of the type and cause of instability is fundamental to provide effective treatment.
