Scapholunate Instability
Scapholunate instability is the most common carpal instability. The evaluation and treatment of scapholunate instability is controversial and the outcome unpredictable. This article will review the pertinent ligamentous anatomy of the wrist and carpal kinematics. There will be a discussion of the clinical presentation, examination, and diagnostic testing of the patient suspected of having scaph...
متن کاملBlatt's capsulodesis for chronic scapholunate instability.
Nineteen patients underwent a scapholunate interosseous ligament repair combined with a Blatt's capsulodesis for scapholunate instability between 1994 and 1999. The diagnosis was based on clinical, radiographic and arthroscopic assessments. Mean follow-up was 22 months (range: 8 months to 5 years). Fifteen patients were available for follow-up. Most (13 of 15) of the patients presented with pre...
متن کاملRadiographic analysis of anatomic risk factors for scapholunate dissociation.
The aim of this study was to identify anatomic risk factors for scapholunate dissociation. On a PA view of the wrist, in zero position, the scaphoid and lunate diameter and height, lunate tilting angle, lunate uncovering index, lunate fossa inclination, radial inclination and ulnar variance were measured; on a lateral view the scapholunate angle and palmar tilting angle were measured. In a cont...
متن کاملScapholunate instability--a spectrum of pathology.
Five cases of scapholunate instability are reported. The condition is commonly misdiagnosed in accident and emergency departments. The importance of a complete clinical assessment of the suspected scaphoid injury and the need to measure the scapholunate distance and the scapholunate angle on the radiographs is stressed.
