ABSTRACT
Wrist and hand anatomy may present several clinically relevant variants that involve bones, muscles, tendons, and nerves. Thorough knowledge of these abnormalities and their appearance in imaging studies is useful for proper management. In particular, it is necessary to differentiate the incidental findings that do not represent a trigger for a specific syndrome from those anomalies causing symptoms and functional impairment. This review reports the most common anatomical variants encountered in clinical practice and briefly discusses their embryogenesis, related clinical syndrome if present, and their appearance using different imaging techniques. The information each diagnostic study (ultrasonography, radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) may provide is described for each condition.
