Kienbock Disease

Kienbock Disease

Kienböck disease refers to avascular necrosis of the lunate carpal bone, known as lunatomalacia. It was first recognized and described by Austrian radiologist Robert Kienböck in 1910. Kienböck disease is the second most common type of avascular necrosis of the carpal bones, preceded only by avascular necrosis of the scaphoid. The typically affected population is males aged 20 to 40 years. This activity reviews the etiology, presentation, evaluation, and management of Keinbock disease and reviews the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating, diagnosing, and managing the condition.
