Conversion of a Surgical Elbow Arthrodesis to Total Elbow Arthroplasty

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2015
Arthrodesis of the elbow joint addresses pain due to intra-articular pathology, but with significant functional limitations. Loss of motion at the elbow is not completely compensated by the wrist and shoulder joints and elbow fusion is thus purely a ...

Finite Element Analysis of the Mouse Proximal Ulna in Response to Elbow Loading [PDF]

, 2018
Bone is a mechano-sensitive tissue that alters its structure and properties in response to mechanical loading. We have previously shown that application of lateral dynamic loads to a synovial joint, such as the knee and elbow, suppresses degradation of ...

Validation of the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System for the Elbow, Wrist, and Finger Joints in Children With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to validate the Pediatric Arthritis Ultrasound Scoring System (PAUSS) for upper extremity joints in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methods Children with JIA were evaluated for elbow, wrist, or finger arthritis by clinical examination (CE) and musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) with images scored according to the ...

Elbow joint biomechanics during ADL focusing on total elbow arthroplasty - a scoping review

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Overloading is hypothesized to be one of the failure mechanisms following total elbow arthroplasty (TEA). It is unclear whether the current post-operative loading instruction is compliant with reported failure mechanisms.
