Traumatic subtalar joint dislocation

British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2023
Although uncommon, subtalar joint dislocations remain a frequently missed orthopaedic emergency. Detailed soft tissue and neurovascular assessment is important and these should be documented as appropriate. Failure of urgent reduction might lead to increased risk of conversion to an open injury as a result of pressure necrosis of the overlying skin ...

Metacarpophalangeal Joint Dislocation

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2009
Traumatic dislocation of the metacarpophalangeal joint is a relatively uncommon injury. The dislocation may be easily reducible (ie, simple) or require surgical intervention (ie, complex). The flexor tendons, lumbrical muscle, natatory ligament, and superficial transverse metacarpal ligament combine with the displaced volar plate to create a tight ...

Proximal interphalangeal joint dislocations and fracture-dislocations

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2023
Although proximal interphalangeal joint dislocations are generally straightforward to treat, fracture-dislocations are among the most difficult hand injuries to manage. Fracture patterns range from simple to treat palmar plate avulsion fractures to complex, unstable pilon fractures of the base of the middle phalanx, where achieving adequate reduction ...

Subtalar Joint Dislocations

Foot & Ankle International, 1995
Dislocations of the subtalar joint are rare injuries. The anatomy, pathophysiology, treatment, and prognosis of subtalar joint dislocations have been well described in the literature. The purpose of this paper is to review the current literature on subtalar joint dislocations, as well as outline those aspects of the anatomy, pathomechanics, and ...

Anterior Glenohumeral Joint Dislocations

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2008
The glenohumeral joint is the most mobile articulation in the body and the most commonly dislocated diarthroidal joint. Anterior dislocation is by far the most common direction and can lead to instability of the glenohumeral joint, which ranges from subtle increased laxity to recurrent dislocation.

‘Inverse’ temporomandibular joint dislocation

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation can be classified into four groups (anterior, posterior, lateral, and superior) depending on the direction of displacement and the location of the condylar head. All the groups are rare except for anterior dislocation.

Posterior Sternoclavicular Joint Dislocation

The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1999
Posterior sternoclavicular (SC) joint dislocations are rare but can have serious complications, such as hemorrhage or tracheal rupture or compression. Described here is the case of a 21-year-old college football player who fell on his right shoulder and, on the basis of a physical exam and plain radiographs, was first diagnosed as having an apophyseal ...
