Deformation of the distal radioulnar ligament during rotation using finite element analysis

The distal radioulnar ligament (DRUL) is a known stabilizer of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) during rotation. However, the mechanism by which the radius is supported by the palmar and dorsal parts of DRUL during rotation remains controversial. Although many studies using fresh cadaver specimens...
