Multiple MRI sections of the wrist joint show a full-thickness tear within the central triangular fibrocartilage that displaced toward the volar aspect of the distal radioulnar joint and was associated with fluid accumulation around this region. These features are consistent with a displaced tear of the triangular fibrocartilage complex.

Triangular fibrocartilage complex displaced tear
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_examine_pipeline_reports":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/139963/annotated_viewer_json?lang=us"}
Selected MRI images clarified the displaced component of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (yellow arrow).
Case Discussion
The triangular fibrocartilage complex is a complicated structure and needs careful evaluation by MRI imaging.
