The Contribution of the Distal Oblique Band to Distal Radioulnar Joint Stability

CONCLUSIONS: The current results indicate that the DOB may not substantially contribute to DRUJ stability in the presence of a disrupted TFCC.CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Stability of the DRUJ after TFCC injury may not be substantially improved by the presence of a DOB. Thus, the clinical importance of DOB reconstruction remains unclear.PMID:38597836 | DOI:10.1016/j.jhsa.2024.03.001
