Definition/Description[edit | edit source]
MCI is characterized by a lack of support of the proximal carpal row and the midcarpal joint and loss of normal joint forces between proximal and distal carpal rows. Midcarpal instability can be palmar less common dorsal and extrinsic. [1]
Clinically Relevant Anatomy[edit | edit source]
The arcuat ligament complex is the most important stabilizer of the midcarpal joint and exist of an ulnar arm, the triquetrohamatecapitate ligament and a radial arm who extends distal of the radioscaphocapitate ligament. The dorsal radiolunotriquetral ligament is also an important stabilizer of the proximal carpal row.
