Hey again, guys. I just wanted to provide you guys a short write up on ulnar variance. Ulnar variance, in a nutshell, is a measurement of how evenly the distal ulnar head and distal radial head line up to each other - it is an integral thing to measure for anyone with acute or chronic wrist pain, and it's easy to do with a gonimeter. Changes in variance as highly suggestive of specific disease and dysfunctions that either dramatically alter our POCs and outcomes, may prompt differential diagnosis, or may require immediate referral back to the referring physician. Take a look and hopefully you'll get something out of this! More to come!
