Finite element modelling of a multi bone joint : The human wrist [PDF]
Creating finite element models of various joints in the human body has been extensively researched using computational methods. Validated and verified computational models can give important information about the load transfer through the joint ...

Headless Compression Screw Fixation Alone for Lunate Coronal Fractures in Kienböck Disease. [PDF]
The optimal management of Kienböck disease with lunate coronal fractures remains controversial. Previous studies advocated excision of the fractured lunate followed by scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal (STT) fusion or proximal row carpectomy. In this study, headless compression screw alone achieved fracture healing and satisfactory clinical outcomes in ...

African ape carpal morphology is not too specialized to represent the ancestral hominin carpus. [PDF]
Knuckle walking is one hypothesized behavior of the Pan‐Homo last common ancestor. We analyzed carpal morphology, including Euclidean distances between behavioral pairs, to investigate whether the carpals of knuckle‐walking taxa appear relatively specialized.

A Very Rare Fracture: Isolated Fresh Lunate Fracture [PDF]
Lunate fractures are rare and usually occur together with other fractures, dislocations, or ligament disruptions. We want to report an acute fresh isolated lunate fracture without additional ligamentous injury fixated with early surgical intervention.

Partial Necrosis of the Lunate after a Translunate Palmar Perilunate Fracture Dislocation [PDF]
2014-02We present an extreme rare case of traumatic partial avascular necrosis of the lunate after palmar perilunate dislocation with lunate fracture. A 32-year-old female was injured by motorcycle accident with palmar perilunate fracture dislocation and

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"

The morphology of the proximal carpals (scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum) are linked to the range of motion (ROM) at the radiocarpal and midcarpal joints. While the relationship between ROM and habitual locomotor mode is well established, it has yet to be ...

LUNATE AND PERILUNAR DISLOCATIONS
1. A study of fifty patients with dislocations of the lunate bone or perilunar dislocations has been made. The period of observation was adequate in thirty-eight. 2. The injuries generally occur in young or middle-aged men after unusually severe trauma.
