A patient who had suffered from ulnar wrist pain for 3 years was diagnosed arthroscopically as having triquetrohamate impaction syndrome. Improvement of symptoms was obtained by arthroscopic treatment. This syndrome and the use of midcarpal arthroscopy are discussed.

Article Synopsis
- Ulnar-sided wrist pain is a complex issue that often poses diagnostic challenges due to various underlying conditions.
- Midcarpal impaction syndromes, particularly Hamato-lunate and Triquetro-hamate impingement, are rare but notable causes of this type of wrist pain.
- The article aims to clarify the recognition, diagnosis, and management of these syndromes by reviewing existing literature on the subject.

Purpose Of Review: Impaction syndromes are frequently a source of ulnar-sided wrist pain and patient disability. Differentiating between these entities can be difficult due to significant overlap in their clinical presentations. This manuscript reviews the diagnosis and treatment of three different impaction syndromes: (1) ulnar impaction syndrome, (2) hamate arthrosis lunotriquetral ligament syndrome, and (3) triquetrohamate impaction syndrome.

Background: The aim of this review was to further define the clinical condition triquetrohamate (TH) impaction syndrome (THIS), an entity underreported and missed often. Its presentation, physical findings, and treatment are presented.
Methods: Between 2009 and 2014, 18 patients were diagnosed with THIS.

Over the last 2 decades, arthroscopy has assumed a greater role in the treatment of disorders of the wrist. The arthroscopic treatment of radioscaphoid arthritis and ulnar hamate impaction provides the benefits of being minimally invasive, with less morbidity, earlier motion, less recovery time, early return to work, and greater patient acceptance. Both procedures are performed easily using standard arthroscopic techniques without any significant learning curve.
