15 صفحه اولThe distal radioulnar joint in rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis commonly affects the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). This can result in pain, instability, or tendon rupture. The goals of surgical reconstruction of the DRUJ are to relieve pain, stabilize the joint, and prevent tendon rupture. We review many of the previously described procedures and report our experience with distal ulna excision and soft tissue reconstruction with a dis...
متن کاملSurgical approaches to the distal radioulnar joint.
For the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) to be stable, not only do the articulating surfaces need to be congruent and well aligned but also the capsule and ligaments need to be mechanically and sensorially competent. According to recent investigations, ligaments should not be regarded as simple static structures maintaining articular alignment but as complex arrangements of collagen fibers contai...
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...

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 ...
