Abstract
Pain on the ulnar side of the wrist is a complex diagnostic dilemma. This is mainly due to the small size and complexity of the anatomical structures. The issue is compounded by the occurrence of positive imaging findings that are clinically asymptomatic. This pictorial essay deals with the imaging manifestations of different causes of ulnar-sided wrist pain.
