“…The lunate, considered the critical point of the wrist, integrates the wrist, and its distal surfaces articulate with os hamatum during the adduction move (Balci et al, 2023). Localized in the middle of scaphoid-triquetrum bones, this bone structure has a smooth-surface at proximal side that connects with the crescent-shaped Lower radio-ulnar articular disc (Yakkanti et al, 2020).…”

“…Analyzing regional and populational differences with radiographic imaging will protect physicians from unforeseen clinical and surgical surprises (Dharap et al, 2006a). The actual literature indicates that European, Asian, and Arabian populations have the most studies for incidence of type-I and type-II (Dharap et al, 2006;Madani et al, 2022;Balci et al, 2023). There is no report for the Anatolian population represented by Turkey, which combines the geography of Europe and Asia.…”

The present study aimed to evaluate wrist (lunate) anatomy in terms of the incidence of lunatum morphology on plain-radiographs among the Anatolian (Turkey) population, accompanied by demographic analysis. We obtained all the patients' data regarding demographical features, diagnosis, and posteroanterior (PA) X-ray imaging. Two radiograph-reviewers repeated the analysis twice, one month later, blinded to their findings before the previous review. The lunatum structure was determined as Type-1 (n:293) and Type-2 (n:207) for each radiograph. Most of the 500 wrists' radiographs [n:293 (58.6 %)] were type-I lunate. The mean age was 36.7±13.3 (range:18-90) years. Sex distribution was as follows: 185 (63.1 %) males to 108 (36.9 %) females. Type-2 lunate was seen in 207 participants (41.4 %). The mean age for type-2 was 41.6±15.2 (18-88) years. 142 (68.6 %) participants were male sex, while 65 (31.4 %) were females. The mean age of subjects with type-I showed a difference with type-II (p=0.007). There was no relationship in terms of sex (p=0.206) between the groups. In the Anatolian region, type-1 lunate was dominant compared to type-2. The incidence rate of lunate type in Anatolian population was similar to the Arab population.
