Abstract
Many injuries to the hand and wrist may be seen in the practice of sports medicine. Most of these injuries are well known and the details of their diagnosis and treatment are well documented. However, even among this group, certain injuries frequently escape detection or are not monitored carefully enough to detect their frequent residual complications. These injuries are particular sources of problems. Some little known diagnoses are seldom considered, but any diagnosis, even a presumptive one, is better than applying vague, descriptive, but nondefinitive terms to an athlete's injury. Although the ideal treatment is not yet available for any of these injuries, a lack of diagnosis will often mean that treatment is haphazard or nonexistent.
