The Critical Size of Ulnar Styloid Fragment for the DRUJ Stability

Conclusion In this study, ulnar styloid fractures involving the fovea resulted in significantly greater DRUJ instability comparted to tip and base fractures alone. This study provides important biomechanical data regarding the critical size of ulnar styloid fractures that result in DRUJ instability and may aid in the surgical decision-making algorithm in these patients.
