Imaging Finger Joint Instability with Ultrasound

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2013
Closed injuries affecting the metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints and their stabilizers in the thumb and fingers occur very commonly in athletes, possibly leading to finger joint instability and long-standing or permanent disability. This article reviews the spectrum of joint injuries of the thumb and fingers that are common in the athletic ...

The Coordination of Finger-Joint Motions

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1963
An anatomical study of finger movements has been reviewed. It has been shown that the function of a muscle with respect to a certain joint cannot be inferred from the position of the muscle with respect to that one joint alone. In the fingers, especially, the tendons bridge more than one joint; a number of joints must be analyzed before it can be ...

Finger joint contact areas and pressures

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1985
AbstractAlthough the joints of the index finger are similar geometrically and kinematically, the occurrence of degenerative joint disease is more frequent and severe in the distal interphalangeal joint. Much circumstantial evidence exists to suggest a mechanical cause for the observed differences in frequency.

Fracture Dislocation of the Finger Joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2014
Fracture dislocations of the hand are difficult and often unforgiving injuries. Keys to treatment include early recognition, stable concentric reduction, and protected early active range of motion maintaining joint stability. The balance between stability and mobility is difficult to manage; therefore, surgeons need a wide array of treatments to tailor

Marketing Finger-Jointed Timber

1982
The paper makes the point that a finger-joint in itself is not useful to end users or specifiers, it is what the manufacturer can achieve by using finger-jointing which is useful. Therefore the marketing effort has to be aimed at making finger-jointing acceptable to end users and specifiers so that a manufacturer can use the process whenever convenient

Hyperextension injuries to the finger joints

The American Journal of Surgery, 1950
FIG. I. Dissection specimen showing intact interphaIangea1 Iigaments (I) and the bony protuberances at the insertion of the extensor tendon at (2) the distaI phaIanx and (3) the proximal phalanx; note that the interphaIangea1 ligaments are sturdy structures. FIG. 2.

Joints of the Fingers

2002
The metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joints of the fingers, like the joints of the toes (see Chap. 12), have become accessible to arthroscopic examination and treatment.

RESTORATION OF RHEUMATOID FINGER-JOINT FUNCTION

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1963
Metallic hinged prostheses have been used in an attempt to restore some function to the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints of fingers involved by rheumatoid arthritis. Indications for prosthetic replacement at the proximal interphalangeal joint are considered to be: (1) gross joint destruction, (2) persistent swan-neck deformity ...

Oxidation of Silicone Elastomer Finger Joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2007
We analyzed the oxygen content of 19 retrieved implants and 6 packaged implants to further understand the mechanism of degradation of silicone elastomer finger joints while in vivo.Nineteen Swanson (Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, TN) silicone elastomer finger joints were retrieved at revision surgery at an average of 7 years of use. Six packaged
