Bones of the Lower Limb: Tibia and Fibula

14.7K
The tibia is the main weight-bearing bone of the lower leg. It is larger than the fibula with which it is paired. The tibia is also the second longest bone in the body and is located right below the skin. The proximal end of the tibia forms the medial and the lateral condyle, which articulates with the condyles of the femur to form the knee joint. Between the articulating surfaces is the irregular elevated area known as the intercondylar eminence that serves as the inferior attachment point for...

Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella

8.1K
The femur is the body's longest and strongest bone spanning the thigh region. Its head articulates with the acetabulum of the hip bone to form the hip joint. A minor indentation on the medial side of the femoral head, called the fovea capitis, serves as the site of attachment for the ligament of the head of the femur. This weak ligament spans the femur and acetabulum and supports the hip joint. The narrowed region below the head is the neck of the femur. The inclination angle between the...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics and Sports Medicine
  • Radiology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Pisiform bursitis is an infrequently documented condition affecting the wrist.
  • The pisiform bursa, when present, is anatomically situated between the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon and the pisiform bone.

Observation:

  • The condition causes pain on the medial aspect of the wrist.
  • It is a crucial consideration in the differential diagnosis of wrist pain, particularly alongside flexor carpi ulnaris enthesitis and piso-pyramidal compartment ganglions.

Findings:

  • This report presents the sonographic characteristics of pisiform bursitis in a patient experiencing symptoms.
  • Ultrasound imaging provides a valuable tool for visualizing the pisiform bursa and associated inflammation.

Implications:

  • Accurate sonographic diagnosis of pisiform bursitis can prevent misdiagnosis and guide appropriate treatment.
  • Increased awareness and understanding of this condition can improve patient outcomes in cases of medial wrist pain.
