Scapholunate Instability
Scapholunate instability is the most common carpal instability. The evaluation and treatment of scapholunate instability is controversial and the outcome unpredictable. 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 کاملAcromioclavicular joint instability: anatomy, biomechanics and evaluation.
Acromioclavicular (AC) joint instability is a common source of pain and disability. The injury is most commonly a result of a direct impact to the AC joint. The AC joint is surrounded by a capsule and has an intra-articular synovium and an articular cartilage interface. An articular disc is usually present in the joint, but this varies in size and shape. The AC joint capsule is quite thin, but ...
متن کاملThe Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness is Related to Severity of Parkinson’s Disease
Introduction: We investigated correlation between the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and the severity of Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: In this study, the RNFL thickness of 23 patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) was compared to normal controls (NCs). PD severity was assessed by the MDS-UPDRS (movement disorder society Unified Parkinson Disea...
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 کاملScapholunate instability--a spectrum of pathology.
Five cases of scapholunate instability are reported. The condition is commonly misdiagnosed in accident and emergency departments. The importance of a complete clinical assessment of the suspected scaphoid injury and the need to measure the scapholunate distance and the scapholunate angle on the radiographs is stressed.
