Bilateral sacroiliac joint dislocation with intrapelvic intrusion of the intact lumbosacral spine and sacrum.

Two cases of bilateral sacroiliac joint dislocation with intrapelvic intrusion of the intact lumbosacral spine and sacrum are reported. This condition is a distinct traumatic entity. The essential features of this condition are the disruption of the pelvic ring with bilateral sacroiliac dislocation. The spine as a whole descends into the depths of the pelvis. Disruption of the anterior structures but not always the pubic symphysis is apparently a prerequisite for the development of the condition. Extensive soft-tissue damage is part of the injury. The etiology is a direct crushing violence to a standing or walking patient. It is assumed that this injury is less rare than it seems, and that the main reason for not being mentioned is the rarity of the survival of the patients. As a result of success in the intensive care of the severly injured, more survivals and more reports are anticipated.

Subtalar and talonavicular joint dislocation as a presentation of diabetic neuropathic arthropathy with salvage by triple arthrodesis.

Ligamentous laxity is a common component of diabetic neuropathic osteoarthropathy. In some cases soft tissue instability leads to spontaneous dislocations or subluxations without any bone destruction. This leads to marked instability in gait and chronic ulcerations. A case report is presented in which talonavicular and subtalar joint dislocation occurred with Charcot osteoarthropathy. The conservative and surgical management including salvage by triple arthrodesis is discussed with follow-up care.

Temporomandibular joint dislocation and deafness from a cricket ball injury.

Cricket is a national sport in some countries and can be potentially hazardous. We report an incident of a cricket ball impact to the chin, which resulted in posterior dislocation of both temporomandibular joints and bilateral mixed deafness. There appear to be no similar case reports in the literature.

Reduction of a chronic bilateral temporomandibular joint dislocation with intermaxillary fixation and botulinum toxin A.

A 71-year-old man was referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Westmead Hospital for investigation of limited jaw movement and facial pain after a cerebrovascular event eight weeks previously. He was found to have bilateral dislocations of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ) and was successfully treated with a combination of intermaxillary fixation (IMF) screws and botulinum toxin A.

[Neurogenic temporomandibular joint dislocation. Definition and therapy with botulinum toxin].

Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint results from trauma, articulation disorders and changes in the equilibrium of the masticatory muscles. Previous classifications were mostly oriented on the interrelationships between the anatomical positions of the dislocated articular surfaces, like luxation, subluxation and discuss luxation. Etiologically, a distinction is made between traumatic and non-traumatic dislocation. Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint is described as a complication of a number of neurological diseases. We report on a patient who suffered recurrent dislocations of the temporomandibular joint as a complication of multiple sclerosis and whose luxations were successfully treated with botulinum toxin, thus warranting the introduction of the term "neurogenic dislocation of the temporomandibular joint".

[Volar distal radio ulnar joint dislocation, case report and literature review].

The authors report the case of a volar distal radio ulnar joint dislocation. The rarity of this lesion seems to be linked to the anatomical relationship of the distal portion of the ulna with the tendons of the extensor carpi ulnaris and the tendon of the extensor digiti minimi. Early diagnosis based on physical examination and radiology gives a better prognosis for closed treatment, reserving surgery for failure or irreducible luxations.

Comparative study of eminectomy and use of bone miniplate in the articular eminence for the treatment of recurrent temporomandibular joint dislocation.

UNLABELLED: Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint occurs when the mandibular condyle exits the glenoidal cavity and remains anteriorly locked to the articular eminence. It is repetitive (recurrent dislocation), usually associated with mandibular hypermobility and inclination of the articular eminence. AIM: This study intended to clinically and radiologically assess the technique of eminectomy and the use of a miniplate on the articular eminence for the treatment of recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint of patients operated on at Oswaldo Cruz University Hospital from January to September 2003. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The sample consisted of 11 patients. Eminectomy was performed on nine joints of five patients and the placement of a miniplate on the articular eminence was performed on 11 joints of six patients. Data collection was carried out through analysis of patient's medical charts and new postoperative visit. RESULTS: The results showed that there were no major postoperative complications with either technique. Maximum mouth opening was greater with eminectomy procedure and none of the patients operated on presented any recurrence of dislocation. CONCLUSION: It is concluded that both techniques were effective in the treatment of recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint.

Acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation: results of operative treatment with the Bosworth screw.

The results are reported in 21 patients who had acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation treated by open reduction and Bosworth screw fixation, with an average follow-up period of ten years. Nineteen patients had a good or excellent functional result. Good cosmetic results were obtained. Full recovery of shoulder movement occurred in all patients but one, although coracoclavicular calcification was a frequent finding. Complications following this technique were few.

Treatment of recurrent temporomandibular joint dislocation after failed Dautrey operation: a case report.

A patient with recurrent unilateral dislocation of the temporomandibular joint for seven years had been treated by the Dautrey procedure. A subsequent condylar dislocation recurred 26 months after the surgical treatment. The condyle head was held in front of the operated eminence without any resorption of the eminence, producing re-dislocation. An articular emineplasty, oblique resection of the posterior eminence, was performed as a salvage operation. This emineplasty shifted the top of the eminence anterior to the condyle, producing effective results.

[Biomechanical problems in elbow joint dislocations with coronoid and capitulum radii fractures (author's transl)].

Dorsal dislocation occurs in 80% of all fracture dislocations of the elbow joint. In 10-15% of these njuries the coronoid process and the radial head are involved. If this injury causes the defect of the radial head - which means the loss of the main supporting part of the joint, - it is only the coronoid process which gives stability to the elbow joint. Therefore, in cases of coronoid fracture it is of utmost importance to reconstruct the coronoid process, if the fracture involves more than 1/6 of the incisura olecrani. Advisable for fixation is the use of a lag screw. In some cases the reconstruction with autogenous bone graft or osteotomy of the olecranon is indicated.

[Etiopathogenetic factors of congenital habitual shoulder joint dislocation].

Six of 56 patients (10.7 per cent) surgically treated for anterior habitual and recurrent dislocation of the shoulder joint exhibited congenital habitual dislocation. Surgery revealed agenesis of the anterior and upper parts of the capsular wall. The lower part of the capsular wall was used for reconstruction.

[Vascular and capsule-band reconstruction following knee joint dislocation].

This is a report about bilateral dislocations of the knee joints in one patient with arterial and venous stop because of endothelial lesions and thrombosis of the popliteal vessels on both sides. After reconstruction of circulation by means of vena saphena, the disrupted knee ligaments were also sutured. Large ventral exposure of the knee joint is recommended for both reconstruction of vessels and ligaments.
