Periodontal Ligament
Longitudinal Ligaments
Two extensive fibrous bands running the length of the vertebral column. The anterior longitudinal ligament (ligamentum longitudinale anterius; lacertus medius) interconnects the anterior surfaces of the vertebral bodies; the posterior longitudinal ligament (ligamentum longitudinale posterius) interconnects the posterior surfaces. The commonest clinical consideration is OSSIFICATION OF POSTERIOR LONGITUDINAL LIGAMENT. (From Stedman, 25th ed)

Patellar Ligament
A band of fibrous tissue that attaches the apex of the PATELLA to the lower part of the tubercle of the TIBIA. The ligament is actually the caudal continuation of the common tendon of the QUADRICEPS FEMORIS. The patella is embedded in that tendon. As such, the patellar ligament can be thought of as connecting the quadriceps femoris tendon to the tibia, and therefore it is sometimes called the patellar tendon.

Osteoarthritis, Knee
Noninflammatory degenerative disease of the knee joint consisting of three large categories: conditions that block normal synchronous movement, conditions that produce abnormal pathways of motion, and conditions that cause stress concentration resulting in changes to articular cartilage.

Osteoarthritis
A progressive, degenerative joint disease, the most common form of arthritis, especially in older persons. The disease is thought to result not from the aging process but from biochemical changes and biomechanical stresses affecting articular cartilage. In the foreign literature it is often called osteoarthrosis deformans.
Primary repair of the cruciate and collateral ligaments after traumatic dislocation of the knee. (1/66)
The management of traumatic dislocation of the knee in 40 patients (41 knees) with a mean age of 26.3 years is described. They were treated by primary repair and reconstruction with autologous grafting of the anterior (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligaments (PCL) and repair injuries to the collateral ligament and soft-tissue. The ACL and PCL were reconstructed using the patellar tendon and the gracilis and semitendinosus tendons, respectively. Early mobilisation using a continuous-passive-movement machine and active exercises was started on the second day after operation. At a mean follow-up of 39 months no patient reported 'giving way' and all except one had good range of movement. Of the 41 knees, 21 were rated as excellent, 15 good, four fair and one poor. Early reconstruction of the cruciate ligaments and primary repair of the collateral ligaments followed by an aggressive rehabilitation programme are recommended for these young, active patients. (+info)Variations in the normal anatomy of the collateral ligaments of the human elbow joint. (2/66)
The variations which occur in the medial and lateral ligament complexes of the elbow were investigated. These occurred frequently with the standard appearances occurring in no more than half the specimens on the medial side and one quarter of those on the lateral side. Surgeons who regularly perform elbow arthroplasty must be aware of these considerations, especially with the introduction of unconstrained prostheses which rely upon the ligament complex for their postoperative stability. (+info)Repair of collateral ligament instability in 2 foals by using suture anchors. (3/66)
Instability of the collateral ligaments of the carpal or metacarpophalangeal joint occurred in 2 foals. The instability was repaired using commercial suture anchors. In foals, commercial suture anchors combined with external coaptation can be used successfully to repair collateral ligament instability of the carpus or the metacarpophalangeal joint. (+info)Reconstruction of chronic collateral ligament injuries to fingers by use of suture anchors. (4/66)
AIM: To evaluate the effectiveness of suture anchors in the reconstruction of chronic collateral ligaments of fingers. METHODS: We treated 8 patients, 6 with chronic instability of the collateral ligament of the thumb and 2 with the instability of the fifth finger, using the Statak suture anchor. A stable joint was achieved in each case, with no recurrent instability or pain within a mean of 14 months of the follow up. RESULTS: Postoperatively, each patient returned to his or her original job, their daily activities, and sports. There was no significant difference on manual stress testing measurements between operated and uninjured fingers. Mean pinch strength and range of motion were 90% (range, 78-104%) and 94% (range, 70-100%), respectively, compared to uninjured fingers. CONCLUSION: Suture anchor technique can be recommended as a simple and effective method of repairing the collateral ligament of fingers. (+info)Towards evidence based emergency medicine: best BETs from the Manchester Royal Infirmary. Plaster or functional splint in gamekeepers thumb. (5/66)
A short cut review was carried out to establish whether a plaster of Paris or functional splint was better for treatment of ulnar collateral ligament rupture. Altogether 50 papers were found using the reported search, of which one presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of this paper are tabulated. A clinical bottom line is stated. (+info)Induction of osteoarthritis in the rat by surgical tear of the meniscus: Inhibition of joint damage by a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor. (6/66)
OBJECTIVE: Characterize a model of osteoarthritis (OA) induced by a surgically transecting the medial collateral ligament and meniscus. Evaluate the effectiveness of a matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitor in this model. METHODS: The medial collateral ligament of the right knee of rats was transected and a single full thickness cut was made through meniscus. Rats were sacrificed at various times after the surgery to assess the severity of gross cartilage damage using an image analyser and microscopically by histology. The effect of an MMP inhibitor in this model was assessed by administering compound twice daily for the 21 days and evaluating gross and histological joint damage at day 21. The in vitro potency of the MMP inhibitor (MMPI) against a panel of human recombinant MMPs was assessed kinetically using a quenched fluorescent substrate. RESULTS: Surgical transection of the medial collateral ligament and meniscus resulted in a time dependent increase in the severity of the cartilage lesion (depth) as measured histologically but only a slight increase in the area of the lesion as assessed grossly by image analysis. Administration of a MMPI orally twice daily (b.i.d.) at 25mg/kg to rats in the meniscal tear model resulted in significant inhibition of cartilage degradation and osteophyte formation (total joint score) of 39+/-7% (mean+/-S.E.M., from four separate experiments). CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that MMP inhibition is effective in reducing the joint damage that occurs in the meniscal tear model of OA and support a potential therapeutic role for MMP inhibition in the treatment of human OA. (+info)The lateral collateral ligament complex and related muscles act as a dynamic stabilizer as well as a static supporting structure at the elbow joint: an anatomical and experimental study. (7/66)
Among 71 osteoligamentous elbow joint specimens from Japanese subjects, 66% of the lateral ulnar collateral ligaments (LUCLs) were in an incomplete form, such as a fibrous intermuscular septum lying between the anconeus, supinator and extensors, and terminated on the annular ligament. The 'typical' complete ligament, extending from the lateral epicondyle and over the radial collateral ligament (RCL) to the crista spinatoris, appeared in only 20% of the elbows examined. This observation suggests that, in Japanese subjects, the LUCL is not usually a simple ligamentous static stabilizer, but acts as a dynamic stabilizer, together with its related muscles. In addition, when the elbow was flexed by more than 90 degrees, the distance between the lateral epicondyle and the radial head became almost 1.5 mm larger than the distance from the epicondyle to the annular ligament. We therefore consider that, in the overflexed position, the radial head moves slightly distal while the length of the RCL remains almost constant. This morphometrical observation suggests that the annular ligament needs to be supported by the LUCL-muscle complex from the distal side, as well as by the RCL from the proximal side. This extended definition of the lateral collateral ligament complex and its associated muscular function is discussed. (+info)Hyperextension trauma to the elbow: radiological and ultrasonographic evaluation in handball goalkeepers. (8/66)
OBJECTIVE: To detect elbow lesions produced by hyperextension in 30 elite handball goalkeepers. METHODS: Conventional radiographs, stress radiographs, and ultrasound examination of both elbows were used. As a control group, 30 male volunteers from the general population within the same age group with no history of elbow injury were used. RESULTS: Radiographic findings in the goalkeepers were osteophyte formation in 67%, loose bodies in 5.5%, and periarticular calcification in 5.5%. Significantly greater differences in medial joint space opening between stressed and unstressed elbows were measured in both elbows than in the control group. Ultrasonographic findings showed thickening of the medial collateral ligament in 50%, thickening of the tricipital tendon in 11%, and signs of ulnar neuritis in 22%. An intra-articular effusion was found in 66% and small loose bodies in 33%. No significant differences were found between the dominant and non-dominant elbows at radiological and ultrasound examination. The findings in the control group were normal. CONCLUSIONS: The findings support the theory that repetitive hyperextension trauma to the elbow in handball goalkeepers results in pathological changes.

- The medial patellofemoral ligament helps to keep the kneecap centered along the front of the knee. (bearnaiserestaurant.com)
Tendon1
- The PLC, which includes the LCL, popliteofibular ligament, and popliteus tendon, is the primary restraint to external rotation stress across the knee. (medscape.com)
Injuries to the collateral3
- Most injuries to the collateral ligaments will heal on their own with simple brace support, physical therapy, and time. (healthpages.org)
- Injuries to the collateral ligaments are usually caused by a force that pushes the knee sideways. (dralex.ca)
- In sports or at work, injuries to the collateral ligament of the thumb's metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint and the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joints of the fingers are common [ 1 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Surgery2
- Most isolated collateral ligament injuries can be successfully treated without surgery. (dralex.ca)
- Imaging evaluation of all patients showed that the reconstructed ligament was clearly visible, and the intraarticular injuries existing before surgery showed obvious signs of healing. (bvsalud.org)
Tears4
- This force stretches or tears the ligament. (mantracare.org)
- For example, studies have shown that professional football players have a high incidence of collateral ligament tears, particularly of the medial collateral ligament. (mantracare.org)
- Medial collateral ligament tears often occur as a result of a direct blow to the outside of the knee. (dralex.ca)
- In conjunction with a clinical examination, ultrasonography is a noninvasive and cost-effective method for assessing thumb collateral tears [ 8 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Occur3
- Thumb metacarpophalangeal ulnar and radial collateral ligament injuries occur frequently in the competitive athlete. (qxmd.com)
- Collateral ligament injuries occur when the knee is pushed in a sideways direction, usually the result of some type of force. (nuviewhealthmedical.com)
- Knee ligament injuries can also occur in situations outside of sports, like in a car crash or bike accident. (r3stemcell.com)
Tendons1
- The triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) is a network of ligaments, tendons, and cartilage that sits between the ulna and radius bones on the small finger side of the wrist. (medicalnewstoday.com)
Periodontal Ligament2
- However, much research has focused solely on the response of the alveolar bone or the periodontal ligament, as well as on pulpal blood flow 2,16,19 . (bvsalud.org)
- A light force (below 1.6 g) acts by influencing the periodontal ligament, whereas a heavy force (above 4 g) acts by partially or totally occluding blood vessels, potentially leading to degeneration or necrosis of the periodontal ligament and dental pulp 19 . (bvsalud.org)
Strong bands of tissue that connect1
- Ligaments are thick, strong bands of tissue that connect bone to bone. (healthline.com)
Commonly injured3
- According to Orthogate , the LCL is one of the more commonly injured ligaments in the knee. (healthline.com)
- The collateral ligaments are commonly injured structures in the knee. (healthpages.org)
- It is the most commonly injured ligament of the knee. (r3stemcell.com)
Severity3
- There are varying levels of severity with collateral ligament injuries. (eosdocs.com)
- The diagnostic criteria was based on direct visualization of the severity of pathoanatomic changes of the anterior talofibular ligament. (elsevier.com)
- There are three levels of severity to all types of knee ligament injuries. (r3stemcell.com)
Valgus1
- Pie-crusting of the collateral ligaments can help achieve balanced gaps in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in knees with varus or valgus deformity. (iupui.edu)
Thigh2
- These ligaments are used to connect your thigh bone to your lower leg bones. (nuviewhealthmedical.com)
- The joint is connected to your thigh bones and bones of the lower leg by various ligaments. (omahasportsdoc.com)
Pitchers1
- Retrospective analysis of ulnar collateral ligament reconstructions in major league baseball pitchers: a comparison of the "tall and fall" versus "drop and drive" pitching styles. (cdc.gov)
Muscles1
- This allows the muscles around the knee to be exercised while easing stress on the ligaments. (healthpages.org)
Heal3
- For minor injuries, the ligament may heal without any issue. (healthline.com)
- As the ligaments are allowed to heal, a physical therapy program will further help to reduce pain and inflammation, improve motion, and regain strength. (healthpages.org)
- This comprises electrical modalities, soft tissue techniques, strengthening exercises to guide the direction that the ligament fibers heal. (painfreephysiotherapy.com)
Bones1
- The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a major ligament (a thick band of tissue that connects bones and joints) located on the inside of your knee. (cosortho.com)
Injure1
- Because of the location of the LCL, it's common to injure the LCL along with other ligaments in the knee. (healthline.com)
Chronic1
- Chronic injuries caused by ligament attenuation under repetitive trauma are called Gamekeeper's thumb [ 2 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
