BACKGROUND A connection between lunate type has been described for medical conditions like Kienbock's disease as well as for wrist osteoarthritis, e.g. STT osteoarthritis. Aim of the Study to investigate the possibility of a relationship between lunate type and the type of wrist injury mainly localised to the scaphoid bone. MATERIAL AND METHODS 394 PA and lateral radiographs of the wrist (n = 394) were subjected to a detailed assessment by two independent surgeons. The X-rays were selected…

Lunate morphology: association with the severity of scapholunate ligament injuries and carpal instability patterns.
TLDR
To evaluate the frequency of different lunate types and their influence on the prevalence and severity of scapholunate ligament (SLIL) injuries and the development of DISI, Fisher's exact test was applied and Cohen's kappa was calculated.

TLDR
Fasciotomy treatment was associated with a higher likelihood of patients presenting with forearm compartment syndrome to experience unfavorable outcomes, which can help guide awareness of potential sequelae of treatment choices in forearm compartment Syndrome, and clinical decision-making for wise patient selection for surgical intervention, when necessary.

The hamate facet of the lunate: a radiographic study in an Arab population from Bahrain
TLDR
The data indicate that osteoarthritis of the hamate or lunate is less likely to be a cause of ulnar-sided wrist pain in Bahraini Arabs, which could be attributed to a genetic variation in the Arab population in Bahrain.
Population variation in the incidence of the medial (hamate) facet of the carpal bone lunate.
TLDR
The prevalence of type II lunate might vary in different population groups and further studies could be necessary to confirm this observation, but osteoarthritis of the hamate or lunate may play a less significant role in causing ulnar-sided wrist pain in Malays.
Arthroscopic lunate morphology and wrist disorders
TLDR
A variable incidence of lunate type in wrist disorders was revealed and was significantly lower for the Kienböck’s disease and ulnar wrist pain groups than for the trauma and degenerative groups.
Wrist anatomy: incidence, distribution, and correlation of anatomic variations, tears, and arthrosis.
The scaphotrapezio-trapezoidal joint. Part 1: An anatomic and radiographic study.
TLDR
The presence of degenerative changes had a significant correlation with a higher anatomic and/or radiographic TT inclination and/ or underdevelopment of the capitate-trapezium ligament.
Medial (hamate) facet of the lunate.
Type I versus type II lunates: Ligament anatomy and presence of arthrosis.
TLDR
One hundred-seventy embalmed cadaver wrists were dissected to identify the type of lunate, the incidence and location of arthrosis in the lunohamate joint, and the anatomic relationship of the volar triquetrocapitate (T-C and T-H) ligaments.
Variations of capitate morphology in the wrist.
