An Extremely rare case of periscaphoid and perilunate dislocation of the wrist is reported. The reported case is a young man with trauma following a motor cycle falling down. At first referral closed reduction and six weeks of long arm cast had been performed. The patient reffered to our hospital because of painful and limited range of motion. He underwent open reduction and internal fixatio...

Aiming at the control of a powered prosthetic hand, this paper reports development tactile sensing system that estimates motion intention hand user. Tactile sensors using Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) film were developed to detect forearm surface features caused by muscle contraction forearm. A neural network was used classify motions as inputs. Number and location on discussed in depth pape...

Flexor carpi radialis (FCR) tendonitis is described as an uncommon condition that causing pain at the palmar aspect of radial wrist. FCR a middle-aged which tends to affect dominant hand. Patients with usually presents and swelling over side Resistance against deviation wrist may illicit tenderness. tendinitis can be diagnose clinically, however, radiographs MRI help confirm diagnosis. Manageme...

There was no difference in the incidence of recurrence of superficial digital flexor tendinitis in horses treated conservatively compared with those treated by intralesional sodium hyaluronate, glycosaminoglycan polysulfate, or systemic glycosaminoglycan polysulfate.

BACKGROUND OnabotulinumtoxinA has demonstrated significant benefit in adult focal spasticity. This study reviews the injection patterns (i.e., muscle distribution, dosing) of onabotulinumtoxinA for treatment of adult spasticity, as reported in published studies. METHODS A systematic review of clinical trials and observational studies published between 1990 and 2011 reporting data on muscles i...

This review describes a series of experiments in which sarcomere length was measured in human wrist muscles to understand their design. Sarcomere length measurements were combined with studies on cadaveric extremities to generate biomechanical models of human wrist function and to provide insights into the mechanism by which wrist strength balance is achieved. Intraoperative measurements of the...

Sir, The importance of flexor carpi radialis (FCR) as a donor muscle in tendon transfers,[1,2] as a tendon graft[3,4] and as an anatomical landmark has been well established. The anatomical variations of FCR are very rare but can have great significance in such cases.[5,6] We report a rare case of congenital absence of FCR muscle found during an elective surgery of bone grafting for scaphoid no...

The purpose of this study was to determine muscle tissue oxidative capacity and recovery in intermediate, advanced, and elite rock climbers. Forty-four male participants performed (a) sustained and (b) intermittent contractions at 40% of maximal volitional contraction (MVC) on a sport-specific fingerboard until volitional fatigue. Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to assess muscle tissue oxyg...

Palmar ganglion is rare. Deep palmar ganglion usually arises from the wrist joint and may cause compression neuropathy. Superficial palmar ganglion may arise from the flexor tendons of the wrist. The chance of compression neuropathy is expected to be less than deep palmar ganglion. However, there is a higher chance of perforation through the skin and the ganglion may affect hand grip. Open rese...
