Ligaments and muscles stabilizing the radio-ulno-carpal joint

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2021
The technical simplicity of the Darrach procedure may explain why it has been so popular. Excising the distal ulna, however, may have potentially undesired consequences to the biomechanics in two areas: the distal radioulnar and the ulno-carpal joints. These conjointly define the radio-ulno-carpal joint (RUCJ).

Load distribution on the radio-carpal joint for carpal arthrodesis

Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2016
Carpal fusions are useful for treating specific carpal disorders, maximizing postoperative wrist motion, hand strength, reducing pain and instability of the joint. The surgeon selects the appropriate treatment by considering the degree of stability, the chronicity of the injury, functional demands of the patient and former patient's outcomes as well ...

Histoplasmosis Involving the Carpal Joint

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1963
A case is reported of histoplasmosis in which focal involvement of the synovial membrane of the wrist and the os triquetrum dominated the clinical picture. One other case of bone and synovial infection was found. Histoplasmosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of focal bone and joint lesions occurring in the age groups when primary ...

Carpal accessorioulnar joint fusion in a dog

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1989
Traumatically induced lateral subluxation of the accessory carpal bone in a dog resulted in chronic lameness with weight-bearing instability. Accessorioulnar carpal joint arthrodesis was performed, using one interfragmentary lag screw and a cancellous bone graft. The lameness subsided and clinical function has remained excellent for 32 months.

Relationship Between Joint Laxity and Radio-Ulno-Carpal Joint Morphology

Journal of Hand Surgery, 2003
The relationships between wrist laxity, ulnar variance, sigmoid notch inclination, and lunotriquetral motion were analysed in 60 normal volunteers. A strong correlation between ulnar length and sigmoid notch inclination was found for the entire group. Joint laxity was found to correlate with ulnar variance and lunotriquetral mobility in women, but not

Carpal joint injuries in cats – an epidemiological study

Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2013
SummaryObjective: Injuries of the carpal joint are rare in cats. The most common cause is a fall from a height, known as ‘high-rise syndrome’. So far, only limited data about carpal joint injuries (CJI) in cats are available. The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology, aetiology, location, and type of CJI in cats.Methods: Case records of

The carpal stretch test at the scapholunate joint

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1998
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the principle of the carpal stretch test. Eleven upper extremities from 6 fresh cadaver specimens and 40 normal wrists from 20 volunteers were used in this study. Changes in intercarpal distances (carpal interval ratio of the radioscaphoid, radiolunate, and lunocapitate joints) and step-off deformities at the ...

The Mechanism of the Carpal Joint

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986
The morphologic features of the carpal bones and their contacts play a highly significant role in the mechanism of the wrist joint. Displacements of the proximal carpal bones in both flexion and deviation of the hand take place in longitudinal articulation chains that are linked one to another.
