Subtalar joint instability

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2015
Subtalar joint instability may frequently be overlooked and erroneously be integrated under the diagnosis of ankle joint instability. It was the scope of this review to characterize the present state-of-art with regard to the adequate diagnosis and treatment.While the clinical picture is mostly inconclusive for subtalar joint instability, a high degree

Familial joint instability syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1980
AbstractWe describe a family in which many persons have generalized joint laxity frequently complicated by dislocation of major joints. The condition is an autosomal dominant trait, with high penetrance. The disorder observed in this family and in others from the literature appears to be a specific syndrome that can be distinguished from other familial

Sternoclavicular Joint Instability and Reconstruction

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2022
Chronic instability or degenerative arthritis of the sternoclavicular (SC) joint may occur after traumatic or spontaneous dislocation of the SC joint. Most commonly, chronic instability of the SC joint occurs anteriorly; however, posterior instability has an increased risk of serious complications because of proximity to mediastinal structures ...

Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma
Summary: The distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is vital to the stability and function of the wrist and forearm. The osseous morphology is variable and provides little stability. A complex of confluent soft tissues is the primary stabilizer; however, the contribution of each component has yet to be elucidated.

Distal radioulnar joint instability

Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation, 2017
Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability is a rare but disabling problem. Surgical treatment remains a challenge. The advent of arthroscopic techniques has helped to rebuild the triangular fibrocartilaginous complex (TFCC), especially its deep part. However, isolated TFCC damage is not responsible for instability.

Chronic Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability

Hand Clinics, 2020
The distal radioulnar joint is inherently unstable, relying primarily on ligaments for stability. Disruption of the joint-stabilizing structures can occur in isolation or concomitantly with osseous trauma. Instability can result from dislocations, fractures, ligament injuries, or malunions.

Classification of Glenohumeral Joint Instability

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2002
Shoulder instabilities have been classified according to the etiology, the direction of instability, or on combinations thereof. The current authors describe a classification system, which distinguishes between static instabilities, dynamic instabilities, and voluntary dislocation.

DISTAL RADIOULNAR JOINT INSTABILITY

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2006
The distal radioulnar joint is inherently unstable. Pathologic instability can be acute or chronic; it can be dorsal, palmar, or multidirectional; and it can result primarily from soft-tissue injury or osseous malunion. Recognition of the type and cause of instability is fundamental to provide effective treatment.
