Abstract

|
It is challenging for orthopedic surgeons to diagnose pain at the ulnar aspect of the wrist due to the small and complex anatomical structures involved. Ulnar-sided wrist pain can also result from tendon problems, including extensor carpi ulnaris tendon and flexor carpi ulnaris tendon. Disorders of the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon include subluxation, dislocation, stenosing tenosynovitis, and tendinopathy. Unlike the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon which is prone to subluxation, dislocation and stenosing tenosynovitis from passing through as sheath, a flexor carpi ulnaris tendon is unsheathed, and calcific tendinitis and crystal deposition disease can occur at the distal tendinous portion of the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon.
