Autologous blood injection around the articular capsule and/or into the articular cavity, which is one of the treatments for recurrent temporomandibular joint dislocation, was recently reintroduced. Here, we present the management of recurrent temporomandibular joint dislocation by autologous blood injection in an 84-year-old female. After the treatment, although the right condylar process had ...

We describe a case of isolated proximal tibiofibular joint dislocation in a 20 years old girl following trauma. Dislocation was reduced through a new and simple reduction technique after failure of classic reduction maneuver. This technique by using isokinetic movements lead to relax the fibular collateral ligament and allow the biceps tendon to snap the proximal end of the fibula back into the...

Isolated dislocation of the distal radio-ulnar joint and isolated dislocation of the radial head in adults are not common injuries. A simultaneous dislocation of the radial head and distal radio-ulnar joint with no other injury seems to be extremely rare since only one report was found in the English literature. A similar case, but with some differences in presentation and treatment is reported.

Purpose of the study: This study analyzes the incidence on hip dislocation of a posterior minimally invasive approach that combines the suture of the capsular joint and the preservation of the piriformis muscle. Material and methods: A first prospective series of 98 patients having undergone hip prosthesis by a posterior minimally invasive approach that combines piriformis preservation and caps...

This study proposes and tests a novel theoretical mechanism to explain increased selfdisclosure intimacy in text-based computer-mediated communication (CMC) versus face-to-face (FtF) interactions. On the basis of joint effects of perception intensification processes in CMC and the disclosure reciprocity norm, the authors predict a perceptionbehavior intensification effect, according to which pe...

. Historically, 96% of shoulder dislocations have been attributed to a traumatic episode with anterior dislocation accounting for 97% of these. . Traumatic dislocation of the glenohumeral joint is the most common joint dislocation with an incidence of 8.2 to 23.9 per 100,000 per year. The male to female ratio is 2.55: 1 with almost 50% occurring in patients between the age of 15 years and 29 ye...

Shoulder joint dislocation is the most common joint dislocation seen in the emergency department.Traumatic dislocation may cause damage to the soft-tissues surrounding the shoulder joint and sometimes to the bone. The treatment, which aims at restoration of a fully functioning, pain-free and stable shoulder, includes either conservative or surgical management preceded by closed reduction of the...
