Forearm instability is a complex problem resulting from traumatic disruption of the forearm
stabilizers: the radial head, the interosseous membrane, and the triangular fibrocartilage …

Forearm instability results from trauma, which disrupts the radial head, the interosseous
membrane, and the triangular fibrocartilage complex. Inadequate treatment of injuries to …

The forearm unit consists of the radius and ulna, a complex and interrelated set of joints
(distal radioulnar joint, proximal radioulnar joint) and the soft tissue stabilizers between the 3 …

Longitudinal instability of the forearm resulting from an Essex-Lopresti injury is a surgical
challenge, and no technique has yet met universal success. A new technique is presented …

Radio-ulnar dissociation can result from high-injury trauma that the compressive forces
traverse the wrist forearm and elbow. This injury can be thought of as an “unhappy triad” of …

Forearm longitudinal instability results from an axial load to the forearm with fracture or
dislocation of the radial head and disruption of the interosseous membrane and that of the …

Purpose In the last two decades, a strong interest on the interosseous membrane (IOM) has
developed. Methods The authors present a review of the new concepts regarding the …

This study investigated the relative roles of the interosseous membrane (IOM) and triangular
fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) in the transmission of force from the hand to the humerus. Our …

Background: Longitudinal instability of the forearm (the Essex-Lopresti lesion) following
radial head excision may be difficult to detect. This cadaveric study examines a stress test …

Background The Essex-Lopresti injury results from injuries to the stabilizing structures of the
forearm, the radial head, the interosseous membrane, and the triangular fibrocartilage …
