Radiograms of the hand were studied in 247 patients undhemodialysis. Among the 247 patients 143 were maie and 104 wrer female, with a mean age of 53.3 years (range: 23 to 88 years). Cystic lesions of wrist joints carer found in 41 patients (16.5%). Cyst positive patients were significantly older and had been receiving hemodialysis for longer periods than cyst negative patients. More cyst positive patients (22%) had carpal tunnel syndrome, which was statisfically significant. In 7 cases of cyst positive patients carpal collapse was found.
