  2. Distal radius fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distal_radius_fracture

    A distal radius fracture, also known as wrist fracture, is a break of the part of the radius bone which is close to the wrist. [1] Symptoms include pain, bruising, and rapid-onset swelling. [1] The ulna bone may also be broken. [1] In younger people, these fractures typically occur during sports or a motor vehicle collision. [2]

  3. Ulna fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulna_fracture

    An ulna fracture is a break in the ulna bone, one of the two bones in the forearm. [2] It is often associated with a fracture of the other forearm bone, the radius. [1] [3]An ulna fracture can be a single break as in a so called nightstick fracture, which can be caused by someone being hit on the inside of the forearm often by a stick, notably when they are holding their arm up to protect ...

  4. Galeazzi fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galeazzi_fracture

    The Galeazzi fracture is a fracture of the distal third of the radius with dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint.It classically involves an isolated fracture of the junction of the distal third and middle third of the radius with associated subluxation or dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint; the injury disrupts the forearm axis joint.

  5. Classification of distal radius fractures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of_distal...

    Ulnar impaction syndrome is a painful condition of excessive contact and wear between the ulna and the carpus with an associated is a degenerative tear of the TFCC. Positive, neutral, and negative ulnar variance. Relationship between radial length and ulnar variance. Radial length is the measure from distal ulna to radial styloid process.

  6. Monteggia fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteggia_fracture

    The ulna fractures in the proximal one-third of the shaft due to extreme dislocation. Depending on the impact and forces applied in each direction, degree of energy absorption determines pattern, involvement of the radial head and whether or not open soft tissue occurs. Direct blow on back of upper forearm would be a very uncommon cause.

  7. Smith's fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith's_fracture

    A Smith's fracture, is a fracture of the distal radius. [1] Although it can also be caused by a direct blow to the dorsal forearm [2] or by a fall with the wrist flexed, the most common mechanism of injury for Smith's fracture occurs in a palmar fall with the wrist joint slightly dorsiflexed. [3] Smith's fractures are less common than Colles ...

  8. Wrist osteoarthritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist_osteoarthritis

    Wrist osteoarthritis is gradual loss of articular cartilage and hypertrophic bone changes (osteophytes). While in many joints this is part of normal aging (senescence), in the wrist osteoarthritis usually occurs over years to decades after scapholunate interosseous ligament rupture or an unhealed fracture of the scaphoid.

  9. Ulna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulna

    The ulna or ulnar bone (pl.: ulnae or ulnas) [3] is a long bone in the forearm stretching from the elbow to the wrist. It is on the same side of the forearm as the little finger, running parallel to the radius, the forearm's other long bone. Longer and thinner than the radius, the ulna is considered to be the smaller long bone of the lower arm.
