Abstract

There is little in the way of surface architecture to explain the complex anatomy of the wrist. Confidence in x-ray examination, especially the lateral, is essential to primary accurate diagnosis. The primary care physician will have a great impact on the end-result of wrist injuries because late care is difficult and has a guarded prognosis.
