The hominoid wrist joint

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1969
AbstractIn a previous study of the primate wrist joint the author has shown that this articulation is uniquely modified in the Pongidae by the interposition of a meniscus between the ulnar styloid process and the carpus. This meniscus (which in gibbons contains a bony lunula) partially isolates the ulnar styloid process in a proximal synovial ...

Wrist Joint Motion

1991
Kinematics, that branch of dynamics that deals with motion apart from considerations of mass and force, has been grafted by surgeons into that branch of treatment attempting to return injured joints to functional parameters in accord with range of motion required for performance of patient activities.

The Wrist Joint

1974
The most frequent fracture in this region, and perhaps the most frequent fracture in man, is the Colles fracture. In German this fracture is called “the fracture of the radius loco classico or loco typico” and in French “Pouteau-Colles fracture”. It is a compression fracture of the distal end of the radius with a dorsal and/or radial tilt of the ...

The Wrist Joint

1991
The hand is a highly accident-prone area because of its frequent use in almost every sport. Furthermore, it is part of a protective reflex on impacts and in falls. Injuries to the wrist range from mild ligamentous injuries to dislocations that frequently require surgical reduction; major tendon injuries may terminate careers. Bone injuries of the wrist

Attritional lesions of the wrist joint

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1987
One hundred anatomic specimens of wrists were dissected to assess the incidence of perforations in the ligaments and triangular fibrocartilage of the wrist. The age of the specimen appeared to have a positive correlation with the incidence of perforations.

Denervation of the wrist joint

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1977
A collective review was made of the results of denervation of the wrist joint for painful restrictiorn of motion done in 313 patients and follow-up studies on 195 (average 4.1 years, ranging from 9 months to 14 years). Complete denervation was done in only 30, partial denervation in the others being done after testing with local anesthetic blocks ...

The Wrist Joint

1981
The wrist joint unites the hand with the forearm and is a complex articulation which affords two degrees of freedom to the hand: antero-posterior and transverse. These movements, together with those of pronation-supination of the forearm, position the hand for its delicate prehensile function. The wrist associates mechanically the radiocarpal joint and

Wrist joint arthrodesis. Technique and outcome

Der Orthopäde, 1999
Arthrodesis of the wrist joint is indicated in degenerative joint desease, instability and restricted and painful range of motion. Further indications are: failed reconstruction, partial arthrodesis or arthroplasty/total joint replacement. The surgical technique depends mainly on the quality of bone substance and degree of joint degeneration ...
