Environ 75 % des malades atteints de polyarthrite rhumatoïde ont une atteinte du poignet. [...] Le poignet va se déplacer en dedans, cette «translation cubitale» est due à la perte du support ligamento-capsulaire radiocarpien, à la destruction du ligament triangulaire et au déplacement du tendon cubital postérieur.
