Ulnocarpal impaction syndrome is a common cause for ulnarsided wrist pain caused by an abutment between the ulnar head and the lunotriquetral complex. This pain is typically triggered by load bearing and rotation of the forearm. Radiographic examination is often associated with positive ulnar variance and cysts in the lunate, edema of the ulnoproximal lunate is shown in MRI. Operative treatment aims to reduce load on the lunate, either by open ulnar shortening osteotomy or arthroscopic wafer procedure.
