Biomechanics of the Wrist

Journal of Hand Therapy, 1995
This article summarizes six years of studies with an experimental model, which uses a static positioning frame, pressure-sensitive film, and a microcomputer-based videodigitizing system, to characterize the biomechanics of the human cadaver wrist by measuring the contact areas and pressures in a variety of normal, simulated traumatic, and surgically ...

Stiffness of the Wrists

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968
To the Editor:— InQUESTIONS AND ANSWERS( 203 :814, 1968) the problem of stiffness of the wrists after a night's sleep was raised. These symptoms are often due to the carpal tunnel syndrome (compression of the median nerve at the wrist).

Wrist Arthrofibrosis

Hand Clinics, 2006
Wrist arthrofibrosis is a condition of decreased range of wrist motion due to intrinsic adhesions and extrinsic contracture. It is clinically characterized by restricted wrist range of motion, pain, swelling, and a plateau in improvement after at least 6 months of intensive physiotherapy. Other conditions must be excluded, such as articular incongruity,

Wrist Fractures

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002
The benefits of a well-reduced and well-healed wrist fracture are predictable. This knowledge has prompted the development of myriad treatment methods and fixation devices. The choice of open versus closed reduction and the devices used to maintain that reduction could most often be determined with a well-defined and reproducible closed reduction ...

Wrist Arthrodesis

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979
Arthrodesis of the wrist is an excellent procedure indicated only in carefully selected and evaluated cases. Eleven patients with various pathological lesions were treated by a modification of standard surgical techniques. Good stability and bone graft placement was secured by an easily removed internal fixation device.

WRIST ARTHROGRAPHY

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1981
Wrist arthrography is an adjunctive procedure that may be valuable to the clinician. Although it is sensitive to particular abnormalities, it lacks the specificity to completely diagnose a given condition. Information gained by arthrography can be used a supportive evidence, in conjunction with clinical and laboratory findings, to aid in the management

The ligaments of the wrist

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1976
The ligaments of the wrist were studied by dissecting ten fixed and seven fresh frozen wrists. In three other specimens multiple cross-sections were prepared. These studies show that the wrist ligaments can be classified into two groups: extrinsic and intrinsic.

Wrist Arthrography

Acta Radiologica, 1993
The ligaments of the proximal row of carpal bones and the triangular fibrocartilage (TFC) strongly influence the function and stability of the wrist. Injury to the ligaments may result in chronic wrist pain or instability. Wrist arthrography is valuable in the investigation of such damage when surgical intervention is considered and plain radiography ...
