The Intercalated Segment: Does the Triquetrum Move in Synchrony With the Lunate?
To quantify the relative motion between the lunate and triquetrum during functional wrist movements and to examine the impact of wrist laxity on triquetral motion.Comparative Analysis of 3 Techniques of Scapholunate Reconstruction for Dorsal Intercalated Segment Instability
The combination of scaphoid rotatory subluxation, dorsal intercalated segment instability, and dorsal scaphoid translation (DST) constitutes stage 5 scapholunate dissociation in the modified classification system of Garcia-Elias. The purpose of this study was to compare the static radiographic outcomes of reduction and association of the scaphoid and lunate (RASL), three-ligament tenodesis (TLT), and anatomic front and back (ANAFAB) reconstructions for stage 5 scaphoid and lunate malrotation and translation.Is the Dorsal Fiber-Splitting Approach to the Wrist Safe? A Kinematic Analysis and Introduction of the “Window” Approach
To compare the kinematic effects of the dorsal fiber-splitting approach for scapholunate ligament repair to a dorsal “window” approach that spares all ligaments.Outcomes of Microneurolysis of Hourglass Constrictions in Chronic Neuralgic Amyotrophy
Wide variability in the recovery of patients affected by neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is recognized, with up to 30% experiencing residual motor deficits. Using magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound (US), we identified hourglass constrictions (HGCs) in all affected nerves of patients with chronic motor paralysis from NA. We hypothesized that chronic NA patients undergoing microsurgical epineurolysis and perineurolysis of constrictions would experience greater recovery compared with patients managed nonsurgically.
