Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), also called median wrist mononeuropathy, is the most frequent nerve compression reaching up to 90%. Objective: To detail current information related carpal and its management, as well analyze conservative surgical treatment of this disease. Methodology: A total 27 articles were analyzed in review, including review original articles, clinical cases, wh...

BACKGROUND The radioulnar carpal joint is critical for hand and wrist function. Radioulnar deviation indicates distal radioulnar joint flexibility and reflects the structure and function of the carpal bones, ulna, radius and ligaments. The present study examined whether radioulnar deviation is affected by gender, manual labor, playing a musical instrument, playing sport, handedness, previous fr...

From a kinetic point of view, the wrist is considered stable when it is capable of resisting load without suffering injury. Several prerequisites are necessary for the wrist to be kinetically stable: bone morphology, normal articulating surfaces, ligaments, the sensorimotor system, the muscles crossing the wrist, and all nerves connecting to ligaments and muscles. Failure of any one of these fa...

Providing suitable analgesia following diagnostic and therapeutic arthroscopic surgeries, that areconsidered to cause some degree of postoperative pain, is a necessity in equine practice. The aim of thepresent study was to evaluate the equine synovial fluid biochemical and cytological changes as well asclinical assessments of the joint following intra-articular administration of ketamine. Six a...

We present a case of carpal tunnel syndrome caused by systemic tumoral calcinosis. A 54-year-old woman experienced hand numbness that persisted for nine months. She had no family history or medical problem. A plain radiograph of her right wrist showed a calcified mass on the volar side of the wrist joint. The patient also experienced pain in her contralateral wrist joint and both right and left...

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common pathology among disorders of peripheral nervous system related to median nerve compression. To our knowledge, there are limited data on effect tendon movement This study focuses understanding carpal by simulating impact tendons caused fingers flexion Finite Element Analysis. Therefore, such modeling step toward development a personalized technique...

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this cadaver study was to evaluate the effect of triangular ligament tears on distal radio-ulnar joint instability by motion analysis. The amount of the distal radius displacement against the ulnar head was measured during passive wrist motion to simulate daily activities of the hands, and three clinical tests for the evaluation of distal radio-ulnar joint instabili...
