  3. Monteggia fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monteggia_fracture

    Direct blow on back of upper forearm would be a very uncommon cause. In this context, isolated ulnar shaft fractures are most commonly seen in defence against blunt trauma (e.g. nightstick injury). Such an isolated ulnar shaft fracture is not a Monteggia fracture. [citation needed] It is called a 'nightstick fracture'.

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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.

    Colles' fracture – a distal fracture of the radius with dorsal (posterior) displacement of the wrist and hand; Smith's fracture – a distal fracture of the radius with volar (ventral) displacement of the wrist and hand; Barton's fracture – an intra-articular fracture of the distal radius with dislocation of the radiocarpal joint.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. Lidström classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidström_classification

    Lidström classification is a system of categorizing fractures of the distal radius, one of the two bones of the forearm. In the Lidström classification system there are six types of fractures . The classification system is based on fracture line, direction and degree of displacement, extent of articular involvement and involvement of the ...
