“…Further cases have also reportedpatients with conditions that may have caused altered stresses on the lunate. In particular, two cases have been reported involving carpal coalition (13,14). It was postulated in these cases that carpal coalition caused a progressively increasing stress on the lunate, which in turn led to Kienbock's disease.…”

“…Kienbock's disease is also associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (5-8), antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (9), sickle cell anemia (10), and Crohn's enteritis (11). Multiple hereditary osteochondromata (12), carpal coalition (13,14) and congenital shortening of the ulna in Langer-Giedion syndrome (15), are other anatomic abnormalities that have been reported with Kienbock's disease. Rheumatic diseases, including scleroderma (16)(17)(18), rheumatoid arthritis (19), gout (20,21) and dermatomyositis (22) have been published in association with Kienbock's, but there have been no identifiable cases in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).…”

Kienbock’s disease or osteonecrosis of the lunate is an uncommon cause of wrist pain. Though there have been several reports of cases in patients with various rheumatologic diseases, the precise etiology has currently not been established. We report a case of Kienbock’s disease that occurred in a patient with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. To our knowledge, this is the first case report with an association between these two conditions.

To the Editor:I read with great interest the article published by Cowan and Panattoni in the October issue of the Journal of Hand Surgery entitled, "Kienböck disease and carpal coalitions: a potential correlation." 1 The authors reported 2 cases of Kienböck disease with concomitant capitate-hamate coalitions. The authors claimed that there was no prior report about the association of Kienböck disease and capitate-hamate coalition. 1 However, the association of Kienböck disease and carpal coalitions has been previously noted. Kaneko et al 2 reported a case of Kienböck disease with capitate-hamate coalition and positive ulnar variance.Abe et al 3 reported a patient with Kienböck disease with positive ulnar variance and congenital capitatehamate coalition. That patient had also an ulnar ray defect.The association of Kienböck disease and carpal coalition other than the capitate-hamate coalition has also been reported. Macnicol 4 reported a case of Kienböck disease and coalition between the capitate and trapezium. The patient had neutral ulnar variance.The observation of Kienböck disease and carpal coalition in one wrist is fortuitous. The development of Kienböck disease is probably multifactorial. None of the reported cases of Kienböck disease and carpal coalition had negative ulnar variance. Carpal coalition may alter the kinematics of the wrist joint, and it has been speculated that the capitate-hamate coalition may increase the load stress on the lunate. 1e4
