Intersection Syndrome

Intersection Syndrome

Intersection syndrome is a condition that affects the first and second compartments of the dorsal wrist extensors. The condition is thought to occur as a result of repetitive friction at the junction in which the tendons of the first dorsal compartment cross over the second, creating a tenosynovitis. This is typically noted as a pain just proximal and dorsal to the radial styloid, or also noted anatomically by 4 cm – 6 cm proximal to Lister’s tubercle. This activity reviews the presentation and diagnosis of intersection syndrome and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management.
