Abstract
The triangular fibrocartilage complex is an intricate anatomic structure located at the ulnar aspect of the wrist. The triangular fibrocartilage is important to the stability and biomedical function of the ulnar carpus and distal radioulnar joint. This article reviews the anatomy and biomedical function of the triangular fibrocartilage. Diagnosis and treatment of traumatic injuries to the triangular fibrocartilage are also discussed.
