Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius01:09

Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius

The radius is longer of the two bones that make up the human antebrachium or forearm. At the proximal end, the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus and the radial notch of the ulna to form the elbow joint. At the distal end, the radius articulates with the ulna via the ulnar notch, forming the distal radioulnar joint. Distally, the radius also attaches to the carpal wrist bones (scaphoid and lunate) to form the radiocarpal joint.
The radius has a nail-shaped head, and a short...

Radiocarpal dislocations, though rare, often involve radial styloid fractures and require surgery. Surgical intervention leads to satisfactory outcomes, but long-term monitoring is crucial to prevent radiocarpal degeneration.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Traumatology
  • Wrist Biomechanics

Background:

  • Radiocarpal dislocation is an infrequent yet significant injury in trauma.
  • Understanding its pathogenesis, complications, and treatment is vital for orthopedic management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To elucidate the pathogenesis of radiocarpal dislocations.
  • To describe the associated complications and evaluate treatment outcomes.
  • To identify risk factors for long-term joint degeneration.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of nine cases of radiocarpal dislocation.
  • Analysis of injury patterns, including displacement direction and associated fractures.
  • Assessment of functional outcomes using the Green and O'Brien (modified by Cooney) score.

Development of a Novel Internal Fixation Model for Rat Radial Fractures: Fracture Healing Assessment and Dorsal Root Ganglion Isolation

Published on: March 13, 2026

  • Radiographic evaluation for signs of degeneration at mean 3-year follow-up.

    • Main Results:

    • Seven dorsal and two anterior radiocarpal dislocations were identified.
    • All cases were associated with radial styloid fractures.
    • Surgical treatment was uniformly applied.
    • Functional outcomes were rated excellent (3), fair (4), and mediocre (2).
    • Two patients developed radiocarpal degeneration post-treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical management of radiocarpal dislocations yields generally satisfactory functional results.
    • Associated radial styloid fractures are common.
    • Stabilization of intracarpal and distal radio-ulnar lesions is essential to mitigate the risk of future radiocarpal degeneration.
