Abstract：
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of arthroscopic scapholunate (SL) and/or lunotriquetral (LQ) laxity and triangular fibrocartilaginous complex (TFCC) injuries in patients who have an intraarticular fracture of the distal radius and to correlate these lesions with fracture type. Fifty-seven intraarticular radius fractures, whether or not they were associated with an ulnar styloid fracture, were evaluated and treated by arthroscopy. Scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligament injuries were classified according to the EWAS classification. TFCC lesions were assessed according to Palmer\'s classification. Each injury was documented through preoperative X-rays and a CT scan. Fracture type and soft tissue injury were not significantly associated one to another. Arthroscopic examination revealed at least one soft tissue injury in 39 intraarticular fractures of the distal radius (68.4%). Twenty-five percent of arthroscopic SL laxities (including severe EWAS 3 injuries) were not detected on standard radiographs. Arthroscopic SL laxity was present in 8 of 11 cases (72.7%) of radial styloid fracture and in 15 of 25 cases (60%) of fractures with at least one radial styloid component. There was no association between LQ integrity and fracture type. Ulnar styloid fractures (base or tip) and TFCC lesions were significantly correlated (P<0.0001). The prevalence of soft tissue lesions secondary to intraarticular fractures of the distal radius was 68.4%. However, there was no statistically significant relationship between the different types of radius fractures and soft tissue injuries. On the other hand, ulnar styloid fracture was predictive of TFCC injury.
