stuff i still need to know Flashcards
TFCC Triangular fibrocartilage complex
binds the ends of the radius and ulna
connects anterior and posterior radioulnar ligaments
disc attaches to ulnar styloid process
does the ulna contribute to the wrist
no!
which of the following joints will restrict carpal wrist flexion or extension
radiocarpal joing [scaphoid, lunate, radius]
dequervains tenosynovitis
texting thumb
traumar disorder of the 1st dorsal compartment
APL EPB common with new mothers, repetitive keystrokes, gamin
tenodesis
passive finger flexion by active wrist extension
functional grip for individuals with paralysis of finger flexors
smith’s fracture
volar displacement of distal bone
colle’s fracture
dorsal displacement of distal bone
trigger finger
- stenosing tenosynovitis
- inflammation/nodule of A1 pulley
- leads to locking of finger in flexed position
mallet finger deformity
DIP flexion position
ruptured long extensor tendon
avulsion
boxers fracture
fractures of metacarpal neck
gamekeeper’s thumb
a type of injury to the UCL
dupuytren’s contracture
abnormal thickening of palmar aponeurosis
contracture of ring and small fingers
carpal tunnel syndrome
entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel
supracapular nerve entrapment
superior transverse scapular ligament can thicken and squeeze supra and infra
GHJ motion
externally rotate
STJ motion
upwardly rotates, posterior tilts, protracts
SHR ratio
total: 180
first 30 degrees: GHJ
mid: 45 - GHJ // 45- ST
late: 60 GHJ
3 to 1
Coracohumeral
greatest stiffness
Superior GHL
limits inferior translation and external rotation
Middle GHL
limits anterior translation
Inferior GHL
“hammock”
Transverse Humeral
keeps tendon of long head of biceps in intertubercular groove
Superior Transverse Scapular
bridges suprascapular notch to form a foramen
Costoclavicular
limits clavicular elevation and superior glide
