Treatment of scapholunate ligament injury
The scapholunate (SL) ligament (SLL) is the most commonly injured carpal ligament.1 The SLL is C-shaped and has three structurally distinct parts: volar; membranous; and dorsal (Fig. 1).2 The dorsal part of the SLL is the strongest and the primary stabiliser of the SL joint and can resist forces of up to 260 N.3 The avascular proximal membranous portion does not provide any significant laxity r...
متن کاملRadiographic Parameters in Diagnosis of Posterior Ligamentous Complex Injury
Background and Aim: Diagnosing the status of the posterior ligament complex (PLC) plays an essential role in the management of patients with thoracolumbar fractures. In this study, due to the inefficiency of existing imaging modalities in the accurate detection of PLC damage, we investigated the relevance of some imaging parameters to specific guidelines for rapid PLC injury detection. Methods...
متن کاملUnusual case of isolated lunate fracture without ligamentous injury.
Fractures of the lunate are rare injuries that usually result from high-energy trauma and are typically associated with other carpal and ligamentous injuries. The incidence of lunate fractures has been cited as 0.5% to 6.5% of all carpal fractures. These fractures are not frequently reported in the literature, and no consensus exists on the treatment of these injuries in the acute and chronic s...
متن کاملOpen perilunate injury with lunate revascularization after complete ligamentous avulsion
Perilunate dislocations are a devastating injury to the carpus that carry a guarded long-term prognosis. Mayfield type 4 perilunate dislocations are rare, high-energy injuries that carry a risk for avascular necrosis (AVN) of the lunate. When AVN ensues and the carpus collapses, primary treatment with a proximal row carpectomy or arthrodesis has been advocated. This case reports a successful cl...
متن کاملUnderstanding acute ankle ligamentous sprain injury in sports
This paper summarizes the current understanding on acute ankle sprain injury, which is the most common acute sport trauma, accounting for about 14% of all sport-related injuries. Among, 80% are ligamentous sprains caused by explosive inversion or supination. The injury motion often happens at the subtalar joint and tears the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) which possesses the lowest ultima...
