The Triangular FibroCartilage Complex, or TFCC, is an important structure in the wrist. The TFCC is made of tough fibrous tissue and cartilage. This tissue supports the joints between the end of the forearm bones (radius and ulna), adding to their stability.
TFCC tears are often diagnosed using the fovea test, also called the ulnar fovea sign. To do this, your doctor will apply pressure to the outside of your wrist and ask if you feel any pain or tenderness. They'll do the same to your unaffected wrist for comparison.
There are two main causes of TFCC tears: Injury: The force of falling on your hand or wrist can tear your TFCC. A fall or other injury that fractures your radius can also tear your TFCC. A sudden twist of your arm that over-rotates your wrist can also cause a TFCC tear.Oct 26, 2021

It's not common in people under 30 years old, but it affects about half of those over 70 years old. If you have preexisting conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or gout, you're at high risk of a TFCC tear.Jun 21, 2021
The Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex is the ligamentous and cartilaginous structures that separate the radiocarpal from the distal radioulnar joint. The TFCC consists of an articular disc, meniscus homologue, ulnocarpal ligament, dorsal & volar radioulnar ligament and extensor carpi ulnaris sheath.
Damage to the TFCC is often caused by: A fall on an outstretched hand; A drill-bit injury where the wrist rotates rather than the bit; A distraction force onto the volar forearm or wrist; or. A sequela of a distal radius fracture. Excessive load on the ulnocarpal joint can cause a TFCC tear.
The triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) is a band of cartilage that cushions the area in the wrist where the ulna, lunate, and triquetrum intersect. The TFCC suspends the distal radius and ulnocarpal joints from the distal ulna.
