57-year-old male with pain in wrist. LIGAMENTS: The scapholunate ligament appears abnormally thickened which may reflect prior injury but no contrast extends through the ligament to indicate a tear. The lunotriquetral ligament appears intact. There is a small amount of contrast entering the midcarpal joint via what we believe to be communication with the radiocarpal joint along the lateral supporting structures of the wrist; the clinical significance of this is uncertain. TRIANGULAR FIBROCARTILAGE COMPLEX: Contrast extends from the radiocarpal joint into the distal radioulnar joint via a tear of the articular disc of the triangular fibrocartilage complex near its radial attachment.TENDONS: The tendons appear intact.BONES: There is mild cartilage degeneration affecting the wrist, particularly at the capitolunate and lunohamate articulations. Bone marrow signal intensity is otherwise unremarkable.
Tear of the articular disc of the triangular fibrocartilage complex and other findings as described above.
