A well-corticated ossific density is projected overlying the dorsal aspect of the scapholunate articulation, consistent with an accessory ossicle (os hypolunatum).
Case Discussion
Given the well-corticated features of this ossific density, it is unlikely to be a result of trauma. The imaging features are consistent with os hypolunatum.
