Description[edit | edit source]
The triquetrum is one of eight carpal bones that forms part of the wrist joint. It is a pyramidal shaped bone that can be found in the medial side of the wrist.[1] The name triquetrum is derived from the Latin word “triquetrus” which means three-cornered. Sometimes it is also called triquetral bone, triangular bone or cuneiform bone.
