lunate bone

The superior surface is round, smooth, and articulates with the lunate bone.

Not the same as the human lunate bone, but a wrist element with a half-moon shape.

Abnormalities of the lunate bone in the wrist develops following an injury or inflammation.

It connects with the pisiform, hamate, and lunate bones.

The lunate bone is the most frequently dislocated carpal bone.

In 1910 he described a disorder which consisted of breakdown of the lunate bone in the wrist.

Watson's test is a diagnostic test for instability between the scaphoid and lunate bones of the wrist.

Ewing dislocated the lunate bone.

Destot's space: Space in the wrist bounded by the hamate, capitate, triquetral and lunate bones.

The scapholunate ligament is an intraarticular ligament binding the scaphoid and lunate bones of the wrist together.

The name of the lunate bone derives from the Latin luna ("moon"), from the bone's resemblance to a crescent moon.

Of these, the lateral, triangular, articulates with the scaphoid bone; the medial, quadrilateral, with the lunate bone.

It is breakdown of the lunate bone, a carpal bone in the wrist that articulates with the radius in the forearm.

Recurrent pain and stiffness occur in conjunction with thickening, swelling and tenderness in soft tissue overlying the lunate bone.

Lunatomalacia Osteochondrosis of the Lunate Bone None Kienbock Disease is an acquired bone disorder.

A condition called scapholunate instability can occur when the scapholunate ligament (connecting the scaphoid to the lunate bone) and other surrounding ligaments are disrupted.

This is an abnormal ligament formed between the Lunate bone of the wrist and the radius and it's found in 91% of cases of Madelung's Deformity.

The lunate bone (semilunar bone) is a carpal bone (wrist bone) in the human hand that may be distinguished by its deep concavity and crescentic outline.

When Ewing hit the floor at the Bradley Center on Dec. 20, the impact on his hand dislocated the lunate bone, one of eight tiny bones in the wrist.

The necrosis of the lunate bone can frequently be traced to a trauma to the wrist, like a compound fracture, which could cause the lunate's blood supply to be interrupted.

It presents, above, a rounded portion or head, which is received into the concavity formed by the scaphoid and lunate bones; a constricted portion or neck; and below this, the body.

The body of the radius is self-explanatory, and the lower extremity of the radius is roughly quadrilateral in shape, with articular surfaces for the ulna, scaphoid and lunate bones.

X-rays at a Milwaukee hospital showed the dislocated lunate bone, and after the Knicks returned to New York this morning and team doctors examined the wrist further, the torn ligaments were discovered.

They originate from the ulnar styloid and insert into the carpal bones of the wrist: the ulnolunate ligament inserts into the lunate bone and the ulnotriquetral ligament into the triquetrum bone.

The Knicks received a bit of good news in the morning when Patrick Ewing had the cast and three surgically placed pins removed from his right wrist, eight weeks after suffering a dislocated lunate bone and torn ligaments.
