INTRODUCTION: The diagnostic value of clinical tests and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the investigation of triangular fibrocartilaginous complex (TFCC) lesions is not clear due to a lack of clinical data.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 908 patients who underwent clinical tests and arthroscopy for suspected TFCC lesions at our institution. Further, MR imaging findings concerning the TFCC were gathered. We correlated clinical tests and MR imaging findings with those obtained during arthroscopy, and we calculated sensitivity, specificity, as well as positive and negative predictive values.
RESULTS: In the whole cohort, the positive predictive values of all clinical tests were low, ranging from 0.53 to 0.55. The ulna grinding test had the highest sensitivity, but lowest specificity. Sensitivity and specificity of the ulnar fovea sign and magnetic resonance imaging were similar, ranging from 0.73 to 0.76, and from 0.41 to 0.44, respectively. To some degree, the diagnostic value seemed to depend on the Palmer class of TFCC lesion.
CONCLUSIONS: According to this study, clinical tests and MR imaging findings are of very limited diagnostic value for the diagnosis of TFCC lesions.
