A case of ulnar positive variance found on x-ray.
A briefcase report is presented that demonstrates the advantage of the therapist's viewing of a series of wrist x-rays in guiding the clinical management of a patient with an ulnar plus configuration. The positive findings revealed on these images facilitated an improved outcome. This case is offered to encourage therapists to routinely look at x-rays in their clinical practice.
