MULTIDIRECTIONAL INSTABILITY OF THE GLENOHUMERAL JOINT

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2000
The concept of multidirectional instability (MDI) was introduced as an important clinical entity in 1980. Previously, it had received little mention in the literature and was not considered to be clinically relevant. MDI is a symptomatic glenohumeral subluxation or dislocation occurring in more than one direction.

Instability of the Proximal Tibiofibular Joint

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2003
Injury to the proximal tibiofibular joint is typically seen in athletes whose sports require violent twisting motions of the flexed knee. Instability of this joint may be in the anterolateral, posteromedial, or superior directions. With acute injury, patients usually complain of pain and a prominence in the lateral aspect of the knee.

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

The instability of the sternoclavicular joint

Der Orthopäde, 1998
Instability of the sternoclavicular joint is a rare diagnosis and will mostly be found after motor vehicle accidents or sports injuries. Depending on the severity of the trauma open reduction is rarely required, and most cases will be treated successfully with conservative management.

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.

Instability of the distal radioulnar joint

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2014
The distal radioulnar joint is a complex structure necessary for forearm motion and force transmission across the wrist. Anatomic and biomechanical advances have revealed broad contributions to distal radioulnar joint stability and refined our understanding of the forces acting across it.

Rehabilitation of Shoulder Joint Instabilities

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1987
The overall goal of the rehabilitation period is a return to full range of motion and a strengthening of the muscles that have a role in protecting the shoulder from injury. Rehabilitation is accomplished gradually and is performed initially in a limited range that excludes the terminal 30 degrees at either end.

Lateral Instability of the Ankle Joint

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1992
Acute lateral ankle ligament ruptures are successfully treated nonoperatively with physiotherapy, peroneal strengthening, and coordination training. About 10-20% of patients may develop functional instability despite adequate nonoperative treatment.

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.
