Purpose: Techniques have been developed very recently with which it is possible to quantify
accurately in vivo 3-dimensional (3-D) carpal kinematics. The aim of this study was to …

Widely recognized as the gold standard reference in the field, Green's Operative Hand
Surgery, 8th Edition, provides complete coverage of the surgical and nonsurgical …

Abstract Learning Objectives: After studying this article, the participant should be able to: 1.
Understand the anatomy and pathophysiology of scaphoid fractures. 2. Understand the risk …

Normal carpal kinematics were studied in 22 cadaver specimens using a biplanar
radiography method. The kinematics of the trapezium, capitate, hamate, scaphoid, lunate …

An analysis of carpal motion after sectioning the ligamentous support of the luno-triquetral
joints was done by use of stereoradiographic methods. The ligaments were sectioned in two …

We reexamined 17 patients at 16 to 57 months (average, 23.4 months) after scaphocapitate
arthrodesis. Surgery was performed for treatment of rotary scaphoid instability, isolated …

The capitate is often considered the “keystone” of the carpus, not simply because of its
central and prominent position in the wrist, but also because of its mechanical interactions …

One hundred and sixty-two patients with a diagnosis of scapholunate instability underwent a
modified Brunelli procedure over a 7-year period. One hundred and seventeen were …

Twenty-one patients with symptomatic scaphotrapeziotrapezoid osteoarthritis were treated
with partial distal scaphoid excision. In 12 wrists the joint defect was filled with either …

The functional outcome, patient satisfaction, and x-ray film status for 23 wrists were
examined an average of 6 years following proximal row carpectomy. Surgery was performed …
