Careful climbing in the Miocene: the forelimbs of Ardipithecus ramidus and humans are primitive.

30 Sep 2009 The Ardipithecus ramidus hand and wrist exhibit none of the derived mechanisms that restrict motion in extant great apes and are reminiscent of those of Miocene apes, such as Proconsul. The capitate head is more palmar than in all other known ... Read more...

Use of cervical vertebral maturation to determine skeletal age.

29 Sep 2009 INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of the cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) method as an indicator of skeletal age in the circumpubertal period by correlating it to the hand-wrist method (HWM). METHODS: Hand-wrist ... Read more...

Determination of correct implant size in radial head arthroplasty to avoid overlengthening.

29 Jun 2009 BACKGROUND: Insertion of a radial head implant that results in radial overlengthening has been associated with altered elbow kinematics, increased radiocapitellar joint forces, capitellar erosions, early-onset arthritis, and loss of elbow flexion. ... Read more...
