Abstract

Ulnarsided wrist pain represents one of the most common problems in hand surgery. Due to the close relationship between the ulnocarpal wrist compartiment, the distal radioulnar joint and its adjacent soft tissue structures numerous pathologies can be the cause for those symptoms. An exact understanding of the anatomic structures and their specific diagnostics is inevitable. The most common sources of ulnarsided wrist pain are instability or osteoarthrosis of the distal radioulnar joint and the ulnocarpal impaction syndrome. The pathologies were addressed with a broad audience during the third web symposium of the German-speaking Working Group for Hand Surgery (DAH) on the 3rd of December 2025. This article summarizes the key messages of the websymposium and provides a guideline for the diagnostics and stage-dependent therapy of the individual pathologies.
