Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius01:09

Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius

9.0K
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...

Bones of the Upper Limb: Ulna

8.9K
The ulna and radius are parallel bones of the antebrachium or the forearm. The ulna lies medially and consists of a bony tip called the olecranon process at its proximal end. This hook-like projection articulates with the olecranon fossa of the humerus and forms the "hinged" ulnohumeral part of the elbow joint. This joint facilitates forearm extension and flexion while preventing its hyperextension. Similarly, the coronoid process, another bony projection on the proximal/anterior side...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Hand Surgery
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Scapholunate ligament injuries are the primary cause of carpal instability.
  • Undiagnosed lesions can lead to significant wrist dysfunction.
  • Understanding wrist biomechanics is essential for managing these injuries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the anatomy and kinematics of the wrist concerning the scapholunate ligament.
  • To present diagnostic methods for isolated and associated scapholunate ligament injuries.
  • To propose a treatment algorithm based on injury stage.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review focusing on scapholunate ligament anatomy, biomechanics, and injury diagnostics.
  • Analysis of diagnostic techniques for both isolated and combined injuries.
  • Development of a staged treatment approach.

Main Results:

  • Detailed description of scapholunate ligament anatomy and wrist kinematics.
  • Presentation of diagnostic strategies for various injury presentations.
  • An evidence-based treatment algorithm for different stages of scapholunate ligament injury.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of scapholunate ligament injuries is vital for preventing long-term wrist dysfunction.
  • A staged treatment approach can optimize outcomes for patients.
  • Further research may refine diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
