Injury to the triangular fibrocartilage complex is the most common cause of ulnar-sided wrist pain. This functionally related complex of anatomic structures can be a source of pain secondary to acute injury or chronic degeneration. Strategies for the treatment of these injuries involve determining the anatomic location of the tear, the presence of associated distal radioulnar joint instability, and the presence of associated degenerative changes. Surgical management with open and arthroscopic techniques have been described, both with successful results. Copyright © 2010. Published by Elsevier Inc. DOI: 10.1016/j.hcl.2010.07.003
