Abstract

Eleven patients with chronic pain on the ulnar side of the wrist and roentgenographic evidence of a hypertrophic ulnar styloid nonunion were treated with subperiosteal excision of the nonunion fragment. This procedure relieved the localized pain without changing either radiocarpal or distal radioulnar joint stability.
