Orthopaedic Hand Service, University of Michigan Hospitals, Ann Arbor, USA.

The pectoral girdle and the distal radio-ulnar joint have evolved over a period of 400 million years. Clinical circumstances exist that may represent atavistic development in modern man. Current understanding of this complex area does not explain all clinical situations.
