Several reconstructive procedures have been described for the complete defect of the distal radius that is created after a wide excision of a giant-cell tumor of bone, including hemiarthroplasty using the vascularized fibular head and partial wrist arthrodesis between a vascularized fibula and the scapholunate portion of the proximal carpal row. The objectives of this study are to compare clinical and radiographic results between the partial wrist arthrodesis and the wrist arthroplasty, and to discuss which procedure is superior. Four patients with giant-cell tumors involving the distal end of the radius were treated with en bloc resection and reconstruction with a free vascularized fibular graft. The wrists in two patients were reconstructed with an articular fibular head graft and the remaining two patients underwent partial wrist arthrodesis using a fibular shaft transfer. There was radiographic evidence of bone union at the host-graft junctions in all cases. In the newly reconstructed wrist joint, there was palmar subluxation of the carpal bones and degenerative changes in both patients. Local recurrence was seen in one patient. According to the functional results described by Enneking et al., the mean functional score was 67 percent. The functional scores including wrist/forearm range of motion in the cases with partial wrist arthrodesis were superior to those with wrist arthroplasty. A partial wrist arthrodesis using a vascularized fibular shaft graft appears a more useful and reliable procedure for reconstruction of the wrist after excision of the giant-cell tumor of the distal end of the radius than a wrist arthroplasty using the vascularized fibular head, although our study includes only a small number of patients. 相似文献

Purpose
Chronic hand and wrist pain is a common clinical issue for orthopaedic surgeons and rheumatologists. The purpose of this study was 1. To analyze the interobserver agreement of SPECT/CT, MRI, CT, bone scan and plain radiographs in patients with non-specific pain of the hand and wrist, and 2. to assess the diagnostic accuracy of these imaging methods in this selected patient population.Materials and Methods
Thirty-two consecutive patients with non-specific pain of the hand or wrist were evaluated retrospectively. All patients had been imaged by plain radiographs, planar early-phase imaging (bone scan), late-phase imaging (SPECT/CT including bone scan and CT), and MRI. Two experienced and two inexperienced readers analyzed the images with a standardized read-out protocol. Reading criteria were lesion detection and localisation, type and etiology of the underlying pathology. Diagnostic accuracy and interobserver agreement were determined for all readers and imaging modalities.Results
The most accurate modality for experienced readers was SPECT/CT (accuracy 77%), followed by MRI (56%). The best performing, though little accurate modality for inexperienced readers was also SPECT/CT (44%), followed by MRI and bone scan (38% each). The interobserver agreement of experienced readers was generally high in SPECT/CT concerning lesion detection (kappa 0.93, MRI 0.72), localisation (kappa 0.91, MRI 0.75) and etiology (kappa 0.85, MRI 0.74), while MRI yielded better results on typification of lesions (kappa 0.75, SPECT/CT 0.69). There was poor agreement between experienced and inexperienced readers in SPECT/CT and MRI.Conclusions
SPECT/CT proved to be the most helpful imaging modality in patients with non-specific wrist pain. The method was found reliable, providing high interobserver agreement, being outperformed by MRI only concerning the typification of lesions. We believe it is beneficial to integrate SPECT/CT into the diagnostic imaging algorithm of chronic wrist pain. 相似文献3.

The changes in carpal bone alignment secondary to the aplication of an axial compressive load through the major wrist motor tendons while the wrist is kept in neutral position (isometric loading) have been investigated on 13 fresh cadaver specimens using a biplanar radiographic method of kinematic analysis. The scaphoid, lunate and triquetrum rotate an average of 5.1, 4.2 and 3.8°, respectively, around different ‘screw displacement axes’, all implying flexion, radial deviation and supination. Based on these findings, a new interpretation of the mechanism by which the wrist remains stable under physiologic loads is provided. 相似文献

The eight small and complexly shaped carpal bones of the wrist articulate in six degrees of freedom with each other and to some extent with the radius and the metacarpals. With the increasing number and sophistication of studies of the carpus, a standardized definition for a coordinate system for each the carpal bones would aid in the reporting and comparison of findings. This paper presents a method for defining and constructing a coordinate system specific to each of the eight carpal bones based upon the inertial properties of the bone, derived from surface models constructed from three-dimensional (3-D) medical image volumes. Surface models from both wrists of 5 male and 5 female subjects were generated from CT image volumes in two neutral wrist positions (functional and clinical). An automated algorithm found the principal inertial axes and oriented them according to preset conditions in 85% of the bones, the remaining bones were corrected manually. Six of the eight carpal bones were significantly more extended in the functional neutral position than in the clinical neutral position. Gender had no significant effect on carpal bone posture in either wrist position. Correlations between the 3-D carpal posture and the commonly used 2-D clinical radiographic carpal angles are established. 3-D coordinate systems defined by the anatomy of the carpal bone, such as the ones presented here, are necessary to completely describe 3-D changes in the posture of the carpal bones. 相似文献

The wrist joint is frequently affected by rheumatoid arthritis, resulting in wrist pain, deformity and ultimately loss of function. Artificial wrist implants have been introduced to treat the rheumatoid wrist, to attempt to alleviate pain and restore some function to the joint. The aim of this study was to predict the likely lubrication regimes that occur in wrist implants with spherical bearing surfaces. The implant was modelled as an equivalent ball-on-plane. Elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory was used to determine the minimum film thickness for the implant under different load, entraining velocity, lubricant viscosity, size of implant and material combinations. The results show that the highest film thickness is found in large implants, with high viscosity, high entraining velocity and low load. Hard-on-soft material combinations will operate with a boundary lubrication regime. Material combinations involving ceramic bearing surfaces have the potential to operate with a mixed lubrication regime. 相似文献

Although carpal tunnel syndrome associated with injury to the wrist is common, it is possible to overlook symptoms of median nerve compression caused by an ascending tenosynovitis secondary to trauma distal to the wrist. One should look for these symptoms in such patients who complain of pain and weakness of the hand, and release the carpal tunnel if nerve compression is suspected. 相似文献

We describe 4 patients who complained of pain over the course of the flexor carpi radialis tendon at the wrist, and who presented with point tenderness there. These 4 patients presented a spectrum of non-specific tenosynovitis involving the flexor carpi radialis tendon at the wrist, ranging from slight tenderness and swelling to complete disruption of the tendon. Their clinical course and treatment is presented. 相似文献

Despite the large number of procedures available for treatment of Kienbock's disease, no single method has emerged as being clearly superior. Ultimately, the goal of treatment must be the relief of pain and maintaining wrist range of motion. The authors' experience with 45 consecutive wrists that had undergone capitohamate fusion for treatment of Lichtman's stage 1, 2, or 3 Kienbock's disease is presented. Average follow-up was 32 months (range, 4 to 107 months). All arthrodeses healed with an average time to fusion of 1.9 months. Postoperatively, 93 percent of patients had either no pain or less pain than they had preoperatively, with preservation of wrist range of motion and improved grip strength (52 percent of normal preoperatively to 72 percent of normal postoperatively). The authors conclude that capitohamate arthrodesis relieves pain in 93 percent of patients with stage 1, 2, or 3 Kienbock's disease and is an effective treatment for this disease. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis affects approximately 1 percent of the adult population. Bilateral symmetric involvement of the wrist occurs in 85 percent of these patients, with recurrent flares and relentless progression. Anatomic changes consist of radiocarpal, intercarpal, and radioulnar subluxation and joint destruction. For advanced disease, both wrist arthrodesis and arthroplasty have been recommended. Arthrodesis has been successful for pain relief at the expense of motion. Implant arthroplasty has been unreliable, with failure rates of 25 to 50 percent at 2 to 9 years. Palmar shelf arthroplasty was introduced in 1970 as a resectional fibrous arthroplasty. The results were good but the series was small. Subsequent reports of this procedure have been inconsistent. In 1990, I initiated and have since followed a series of patients treated with the palmar shelf arthroplasty. To the basic procedure, I added joint distraction by external fixator, collagen/bone wax interposition, scapholunate stabilization, and increased immobilization time. Fourteen consecutive patients were enrolled in this study. Each carried a diagnosis of rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis of the wrist. There were 11 women and 3 men. Age ranged from 28 to 56 years. Follow-up ranged from 2 to 7 years (average 4.2). The patients were interviewed, examined, and x-rayed. A questionnaire using an analog scale as well as the Hospital for Special Surgery scoring system was completed to assess the clinical outcome of the wrist postoperatively compared with its preoperative status and with the contralateral wrist. No patient has requested or required a revision procedure. All patients experienced improvement with both pain and function; no wrist spontaneously fused. Patient satisfaction was high. Patients with ipsilateral arthroplasty and contralateral arthrodesis preferred the arthroplasty. Hospital for Special Surgery score increased from 53 to 91 out of 100 points (p < 0.001). Range of motion averaged 50 degrees flexion, 30 degrees extension. Palmar shelf arthroplasty remains a viable option for severe rheumatoid disease of the wrist. Ideally, the procedure is performed on the dominant wrist of a patient with bilateral wrist involvement in the setting of inflammatory arthritis. 相似文献

Third-generation total wrist arthroplasty devices have provided joint stability, relief from pain and increased wrist motion for patients suffering from severe arthritis. While reports of clinical follow-up appointments describe improved wrist function, the improvement in overall upper extremity function and patient perception remains a question. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess the upper extremity function in patients that received the Universal 2 total implant system. Eight patients participated in the complete protocol, which included testing activities of daily living as well as surveys to assess patient perception. The findings of the current study suggest that although patients exhibit motion that exceeds the needed amount, many still have a perceived disability. 相似文献

Studies on the wrist joint have shown two types of the carpal bone lunate. In type II lunate there is a facet on the medial side of the lunate for articulation with the proximal pole of the hamate; such a facet is absent in type I lunate. Type II lunates have different kinematics, are more prone to clinically relevant degenerative changes in the hamato-lunate joint and are an uncommon cause of ulnar-sided wrist pain. Ninety plain radiographs showing postero-anterior views of the wrist (52 right and 38 left wrists) were studied in a population of Malays from Malaysia (mean age 48 years; age range 23 to 67 years) to determine the incidence of type I and type II lunates. Our findings were compared with those in other reports in the literature. In Malays, only 24 wrists (26.7%) showed a type II lunate compared to a reported incidence of 50% or more in populations from the Western world. Such a low incidence of type II lunate has not been reported before and may represent a genetic variation in Malays. Consequently, osteoarthritis of the hamate or lunate may play a less significant role in causing ulnar-sided wrist pain in Malays. In conclusion, the prevalence of type II lunate might vary in different population groups and further studies could be necessary to confirm this observation. 相似文献

The carpal tunnel syndrome, or compression neuropathy of the median nerve at the wrist, is a common cause of burning pain, numbness and tingling in the hand. The diagnosis is suggested by nocturnal paresthesias in the thumb, index and long fingers associated with signs of irritability of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel at the wrist. Surgical treatment in the form of incision of the transverse carpal ligament should be performed before irreversible motor and sensory changes occur. 相似文献

Short stature as well as tall stature can have a wide variety of causes. Tall stature is usually experienced as a less important problem than short stature, but for both clinical presentations it is important to make a correct diagnosis as to etiology. The identification of the diagnosis frequently relies on radiological criteria. However, no international uniformity exists with respect to the radiographic evaluation of children with growth problems. We recommend that in patients with a possible diagnosis of a skeletal dysplasia a skeletal survey must be performed. In patients with a proportionate stature, radiographic analysis of the hand and wrist will be sufficient in most cases. However, whenever there are clinical abnormalities with a possible underlying bone anomaly, a modified skeletal survey is appropriate. The combination of clinical and biochemical features and an appropriate skeletal survey can often lead to the correct diagnosis and/or guide the subsequent molecular analysis. 相似文献

A four-corner arthrodesis of the wrist is a salvage procedure for the treatment of specific wrist disorders, to achieve a movable, stable and pain free joint. However, a partial arthrodesis limits the postoperative range of motion (ROM). The goal of this study is to understand the mechanism of the reduction of the ROM and to evaluate the effect of the orientation of the lunate in the four-corner arthrodesis on the range of motion by using a biomechanical model, containing articular contacts and ligaments. Multi-body models of a normal wrist and a four-corner arthrodesis wrist with different orientation of the lunate were used for simulations of flexion-extension motion (FEM) and radial-ulnar deviation motion (RUD). The ROM of the postoperative wrist was reduced from 145° to 82° of the total arc of FEM and from 73° to 41.5° of the total arc of RUD. The model simulations show that the range of motion reduction is caused by overtension of the extrinsic wrist ligaments. Different positioning of the lunate changes the balance between the contact forces and ligament forces in the wrist. This explains the effect on the postoperative range of motion. The 20° flexed lunate did not give any gain in the extension motion of the wrist, caused joint luxation in flexion and limitation in RUD. The 30° extended lunate caused overtension of the extrinsic ligaments attached to the lunate. The ROM in this case is dramatically reduced. The model simulations suggest that the neutral position of the lunate seems to be most favorable for mobility of the wrist after a four-corner arthrodesis procedure. 相似文献

The authors compare the functional outcome of 8 patients treated by distal scaphoid resection arthroplasty for scaphoid nonunion with symptomatic wrist arthritis before surgery and after a minimum follow-up of 6 months. There was a significantly better range of radial deviation and grip strength at the time of re-examination. Significantly fewer patients complained of resting pain. By contrast the change of radiolunate angle measured before the surgery and at the time of re-examination was statistically insignificant. Our preliminary results show that distal scaphoid resection arthroplasty seems to be a useful treatment method of scaphoid nonunion with symptomatic wrist arthritis. 相似文献

Primates adopt diverse hand postures during terrestrial and above-branch quadrupedal locomotion--knuckle-walking, digitigrady, and palmigrady--that incorporate varying degrees of wrist dorsiflexion (i.e., extension). Although relationships between hand postures, wrist joint range of motion, and the external properties of wrist bones (e.g., surface morphology) have been examined, the relationship between hand postures and the internal properties of wrist bones (e.g., bone density) remains largely unexplored. Because articular joint surfaces transmit mechanical loads between conjoining limb bones, measures of density (e.g., magnitudes and patterns) in the subchondral cortical plate of bone of the distal radius can be used to evaluate load regimes experienced by the wrist joint in different hand postures. We assessed apparent (i.e. optical) density patterns in several extant catarrhine primate taxa partitioned into different hand posture groups: knuckle-walking apes, digitigrade monkeys, and palmigrade monkeys. Computed tomography osteoabsorptiometry (CT-OAM) was used to construct maximum intensity projection (MIP) maps of apparent densities. High apparent density areas were characterized relative to a dorsal-volar reference plane and compared across hand posture groups. All groups had large percentage areas of high apparent density in the dorsal region of the distal radial articular surface. Only knuckle-walking apes, however, had a large percentage area of high apparent density in the volar region of the distal radial articular surface. These patterns are consistent with radiocarpal articulations in specific hand postures as evidenced by available radiographic data and suggest that the different habitual hand postures adopted by monkeys and African apes during quadrupedal locomotion have different stereotypic loading patterns. This has implications for understanding the functional morphology and evolution of knuckle-walking and digitigrade hand postures in primates. 相似文献

Two cases of acute attack of pseudogout associated with primary hyperparathyroidism are reported. Case 1 suffered from acute pain and swelling of the right ankle and dorsal of the right foot. Case 2 suffered from unknown fever and pain of the bilateral jaw, shoulder, elbow, wrist and knee joints. Postoperative radiological studies revealed the association of chondrocalcinosis in both cases. Synovial fluid in case 2 was aspirated and analyzed for calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal by microscopic examination. 相似文献

This investigation was an extension of a previous study conducted in our laboratory in which we showed that 1 month of treatment with a topical cream (Celadrin) consisting of cetylated fatty acids was effective for reducing pain and improving functional performance in individuals with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee (Kraemer et al., Journal of Rheumatology, 2004). We wanted to verify that the addition of menthol to the compound would produce a similar percentage of improvement in therapeutic effects. We used a single treatment group with a pre-post experimental design to examine % treatment changes. Individuals diagnosed with OA of the knee (N = 10; age, 66.4 +/- 11.5 years) and severe pain (e.g., OA, rheumatoid arthritis) of the elbow (N = 8; age, 59.1 +/- 18.2 years) and wrist (N = 10; age, 60.3 +/- 16.8 years) were tested for pain and functional performance before and after 1 week of treatment with a topical cream consisting of cetylated fatty acids and menthol applied twice per day. In individuals with knee OA, significant improvements in stair-climbing ability (about 12%), "up-and-go" performance (about 12%), balance and strength (about 16.5%), and range of motion (about 3.5%) were observed, as were reductions in pain. In individuals with severe pain of the elbow and wrist, significant improvements in dynamic (about 22 and 24.5%, respectively) and isometric (about 33 and 42%, respectively) local muscular endurance were observed, as was a reduction in pain. Neither group demonstrated significant changes in maximal grip strength or maximal force production. One week of treatment with a topical cream consisting of cetylated fatty acids and menthol was similarly effective for reducing pain and improving functional performance in individuals with arthritis of the knee, elbow, and wrist. The % changes were consistent with our prior work on the compound without menthol. Further work is needed to determine the impact of menthol in such a cream. Nevertheless, our data support the use of a topical cream consisting of cetylated fatty acids (with or without menthol) for enhancing the potential for exercise training in this population. 相似文献

There is a growing body of evidence of changes in corticospinal excitability associated with musculoskeletal disorders, however there is a lack of knowledge of how these changes relate to measures of pain, motor performance and disability. An exploratory study was performed utilizing Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation to investigate differences in corticospinal excitability in the Abductor Pollicis Brevis (APB) between 15 pain-free subjects and 15 subjects with chronic wrist/hand pain and to determine how corticospinal excitability was associated with measures of pain (visual analog scale, AUSCAN™), hand motor performance (isometric and key pinch strength, Purdue Pegboard Test), disability (AUSCAN™), and spinal motoneuronal excitability. Input–output curves demonstrated increased corticospinal excitability of the APB in the affected hand of subjects with chronic pain (p < 0.01). Changes in corticospinal excitability were significantly correlated with pain intensity (r = 0.77), disability (r = 0.58), and negatively correlated with motoneuronal excitability (r = −0.57). Corticospinal excitability in subjects with heterogeneous injuries of the wrist/hand was associated with disability and pain. 相似文献
