Estimating elbow loading conditions through the motion behaviors of subchondral bone density during joint movements
Evaluating complicated stress across the elbow under joint motion remains difficult. Here, we aimed to evaluate the distribution of the subchondral bone density in the normal elbow bones and further characterize their spatial relationships during elbow motion to estimate the loading stress across the articular surface using three-dimensional computed tomography bone models.
Lidocaine may reduce pain at time of corticosteroid injection for hand, wrist conditions
Patients who received lidocaine at the time of corticosteroid injection for hand and wrist conditions experienced lower pain intensity compared with those who did not receive lidocaine, according to presented results.
Surgical Management of Lateral Epicondylitis: A Scoping Review of Published Literature
Surgical intervention for lateral epicondylitis remains a controversial topic, with its purpose being debated. Recent guidelines have concluded no benefit from surgery when compared to conservative management.
11 Exercises to Reduce de Quervain`s Tenosynovitis
De Quervain’s tenosynovitis is a painful condition that occurs when two of the thumb’s tendons—located on the thumb side of your wrist—become overused or irritated.These tendons are covered by a slick coating called synovium that allows them to smoothly slide back and forth through the sheaths that enclose them. Occasionally, overuse of the hand or wrist causes swelling and inflammation in these tendons or in the sheaths themselves.
Primary Elbow Arthroplasty in the Management of Complex Distal Humerus Fractures
Complex distal humerus fractures pose significant challenges in orthopedic surgery, especially when traditional open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is not feasible. Primary elbow arthroplasty has emerged as an alternative treatment option for these fractures, but its application remains limited.
