摘要
To determine the congruency of the distal radioulnar joine, 100 standardized normal wrist x-ray films were made and the following measurements taken: ulnar seat inclination, sigmoid notch inclination, and ulnar variance. The inclination angles were different in all but two cases. Relative to the long axis of the ulna, the sigmoid notch inclination averaged 7.7 degrees and the ulnar seat inclination averaged 21.0 degrees. There was a moderate correlation between the two inclination angles as well as between both sigmoid and ulnar seat inclination and ulnar variance. The data show that a wide variation between the inclination of the sigmoid notch and ulnar seat exists, which may explain why symptomatic articular incongruity can occur following ulnar shortening.
