title: Traumatic ulnar variance in Kienböck's disease.
abstract: A case of unilateral ulnar minus variant, almost certainly caused by trauma to the distal ulnar growth plate, and ipsilateral Kienböck's disease is described. The contralateral wrist was normal in all respects. This constitutes additional evidence for the etiologic relationship between Kienböck's disease and the presence of the ulnar minus variant.
