Extensor tendon rupture caused by instability of the ulnar head with an osteoarthritic distal radioulnar joint: a case report
INTRODUCTION Although spontaneous extensor tendon rupture often occurs in association with rheumatoid arthritis, extensor tendon rupture associated with osteoarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint has been rarely reported. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of a 74-year-old Asian woman with a fourth and fifth extensor tendon rupture caused by instability of the ulnar head associated with...
متن کاملA suspension procedure using the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon for distal radioulnar joint disorders.
Recently the Sauve-Kapandji (S-K) procedure has become popular for the treatment of various distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) disorders. However, some complications, especially pain over the proximal stump of the ulna due to instability of the ulna have been reported in more recent follow-up studies. To prevent the occurrence of this pain, we devised a modified S-K procedure, which we called the s...
متن کاملThe distal radioulnar joint.
The distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) acts in concert with the proximal radioulnar joint to control forearm rotation. The DRUJ is stabilized by the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC). This complex of fibrocartilage and ligaments support the joint through its arc of rotation, as well as provide a smooth surface for the ulnar side of the carpus. TFCC and DRUJ injuries are part of the common pa...
متن کاملDistal Radioulnar Joint Instability
Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability is a common clinical condition but a frequently missed diagnosis. Both surgical and nonsurgical treatments are possible for chronic cases of DRUJ instability. Nonsurgical treatment can be considered as the primary therapy in less active patients, while surgery should be considered to recover bone and ligament injuries if nonsurgical treatment fails to ...
متن کاملStabilisation of the distal radioulnar joint with a double-breasted slip of the extensor retinaculum.
We describe a method for stabilising the distal radioulnar joint using a double breasted slip of extensor retinaculum. This is a retrospective series of 30 patients with a painful wrist secondary to instability of the distal radioulnar joint. The results were assessed by a modified Mayo Score. The mean follow-up was for 38.1 months (13 months to 8 years). Twelve patients had excellent, 16 good ...
