  2. Distal radioulnar articulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distal_radioulnar_articulation

    The distal radioulnar articulation [1] (also known as the distal radioulnar joint, [2] or inferior radioulnar joint [1] [3]) is a synovial pivot joint between the two bones in the forearm; the radius and ulna. It is one of two joints between the radius and ulna, the other being the proximal radioulnar articulation.

    To cover the ulna head by extending the articular surface of the distal radius. Load transmission across the ulnocarpal joint and partially load absorbing; Allows forearm rotation by giving a strong but flexible connection between the distal radius and ulna. It also supports the ulnar portion of the carpus.

  4. Ulnar notch of the radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulnar_notch_of_the_radius

    The articular surface for the ulna is called the ulnar notch (sigmoid cavity) of the radius; it is in the distal radius, and is narrow, concave, smooth, and articulates with the head of the ulna forming the distal radioulnar joint.

    A fracture within the capsule of the elbow joint results in the fat pad sign or "sail sign" which is a displacement of the fat pad at the elbow. Illustration showing radius shaft fracture. Essex-Lopresti fracture – a fracture of the radial head with concomitant dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint with disruption of the interosseous ...

  6. 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.

  7. Interosseous membrane of forearm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interosseous_membrane_of...

    The interosseous membrane of the forearm (rarely middle or intermediate radioulnar joint) is a fibrous sheet that connects the interosseous margins of the radius and the ulna. It is the main part of the radio-ulnar syndesmosis , a fibrous joint between the two bones.

  8. Essex-Lopresti fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essex-Lopresti_fracture

    The injury can be difficult to diagnose initially as medical attention is usually focused on the injury to the radial head, leading to the distal radio-ulnar injury being overlooked. The examination finding of tenderness of the distal radio-ulnar joint suggests an Essex-Lopresti injury in patients who have sustained high energy forearm trauma.

  9. Wrist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist

    The distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is a pivot joint located between the distal ends of the radius and ulna, which make up the forearm. Formed by the head of the ulna and the ulnar notch of the radius, the DRUJ is separated from the radiocarpal (wrist) joint by an articular disk lying between the radius and the styloid process of the ulna.
