Chondrocalcinosis, osteophytes and osteoarthritis.
An association between osteoarthritis (OA) and radiographic evidence of chon-drocalcinosis (CC) has been recognised for years. Crystals of calcium pyrophos-phate dihydrate (CPPD) may be found in synovial fluid from patients with OA who are relatively asymptomatic as well as from those who are experiencing an acute flare up of joint pain due to an attack of pseudogout. Whether CC is the cause of...

This article will review the pertinent ligamentous anatomy of the wrist and carpal kinematics. There will be a discussion of the clinical presentation, examination, and diagnostic testing of the patient suspected of having scaph...
متن کاملOsteoarthritis and articular chondrocalcinosis in the elderly.
One hundred consecutive admissions to an acute geriatric unit were examined for clinical and radiographic evidence of osteoarthritis (OA) and articular chondrocalcinosis (ACC). Thirty-four patients had ACC. This was age related, the prevalence rising from 15% in patients aged 65-74 years to 44% in patients over 84 years.

متن کاملScapholunate instability: proprioception and neuromuscular control.
From a kinetic point of view, the wrist is considered stable when it is capable of resisting load without suffering injury. Several prerequisites are necessary for the wrist to be kinetically stable: bone morphology, normal articulating surfaces, ligaments, the sensorimotor system, the muscles crossing the wrist, and all nerves connecting to ligaments and muscles. Failure of any one of these fa...
متن کاملBlatt's capsulodesis for chronic scapholunate instability.
Nineteen patients underwent a scapholunate interosseous ligament repair combined with a Blatt's capsulodesis for scapholunate instability between 1994 and 1999. The diagnosis was based on clinical, radiographic and arthroscopic assessments. Mean follow-up was 22 months (range: 8 months to 5 years). Fifteen patients were available for follow-up. Most (13 of 15) of the patients presented with pre...
