“…Factors such as ethnic group, gender and age were reported to affect the ulnar variance (Chan and Huang, 1971; Chen, 2000; Chen and Shih, 1990; Gelberman et al, 1975; Hultén, 1928; Nakamura et al, 1991; Nakayama et al, 1992; Schuind et al, 1995; Schuurman et al, 2001). Several cross-sectional studies noted a correlation of age and ulnar variance, suggesting that ulnar variance increases with age (Bozar et al, 1998; Chung et al, 2001; D’Hoore et al, 1994; Goto and Kobayashi, 1992; Kristensen and Søballe, 1987; Kristensen et al, 1986; Nakayama et al, 1992, 1991; Sanderson et al, 1997). The purpose of our study was to examine the relationship between ulnar variance and age.…”
