Posterior capsulitis of the temporomandibular joint

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1986
Posterior capsulitis, which is characterized by pain and inflammation localized above and behind the condyle of the mandible, usually develops as a result of premature contacts in dental occlusion. The pain at the affected side is related to the severe spasm of M. Pterygoideus Lateralis or the splinting action of the masticatory muscles. This condition

The Integrity of the Acromioclavicular Capsule Ensures Physiological Centering of the Acromioclavicular Joint Under Rotational Loading

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2018
Background: The acromioclavicular (AC) capsule is an important stabilizer against horizontal translation and also contributes to the strut function of the clavicle, which guides rotation of the scapula.

Thermally Induced Shrinkage of Joint Capsule

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2000
Thermal shrinkage of collagen currently is being used in orthopaedic surgery to treat ligamentous laxity. Understanding the kinetics of collagen shrinkage is key to revealing the events that take place during application of thermal energy. To elucidate the thermokinetic properties of collagen, punch biopsies of bovine joint capsule were immersed in a ...

Comparative Study of the Properties of the Shoulder Joint Capsule with Those of Other Joint Capsules

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1983
To compare the collagen structure of the shoulder joint with that of other joints, the collagen of shoulder, elbow, and hip joints was examined electron microscopically, electrophoretically, and by its response to mechanical stress. Collagen Types I, III, and V were common to joint capsules.

The medial capsule of the human temporomandibular joint

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1997
Attachments of the medial capsule of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) to structures other than the medial fossa wall are thought to exist and to have functional significance. This study evaluated these relationships.The anatomic relationships between the medial capsule and other medial structures, the sphenomandibular ligament, discomalleolar ligament,

Computed Tomography of the Hip Joint Capsule

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1983
In 95% of cases, computed tomography (CT) enables the articular capsule of the hip joint to be directly visualized. Articular effusion in the hip joint can also be recognized in the CT image. In inflammatory arthritis and active osteoarthrosis of the hip joint, thickening of the articular capsule or articular effusion appears in the CT image.

The joint capsule and joint laxity in dogs with hip dysplasia

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1997
Present knowledge of the complexity of joint diseases makes it difficult to investigate the causes and early pathogenesis of canine hip dysplasia. Clinical signs of canine hip dysplasia including joint laxity may be a result of primary or secondary alterations of the joint.

Insertion of the pectoralis major into the shoulder joint capsule

Anatomical Science International, 2008
The pectoralis major muscle is subject to various morphologies. One presumably very rare variation is insertion of this muscle into the shoulder joint. During the routine dissection of the right upper extremity of an adult male cadaver a distinct separate tendinous insertion into the shoulder joint capsule was identified. This vertical tendon (7 mm x 6

The Relationship of the Glenohurneral Joint Capsule to the Rotator Cuff

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1990
The glenohumeral joint capsules of 23 shoulders in which the rotator cuff was not torn were studied by gross dissection and histologic methods. The cuff tendons were resected, leaving the intact capsule attached to the bones. This dissection method provided a unique overview of the capsule in situ and allowed the areas of cuff tendon and muscle ...

Innervation of the Equine Hip and Stifle Joint Capsules

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1976
SUMMARY The hindlimbs of 3 ponies and 3 horses were dissected. The hip joint capsule was found to receive articular nerve fibers from the femoral, obturator, cranial gluteal, and sciatic nerves. The nerve fibers were distributed to the fibrous joint capsule and associated capsular ligaments.
