De Quervain syndrome causes pain over the styloid process of the radius. [3] [4] This is due to the passage of the inflamed extensor pollicis brevis tendon and abductor pollicis longus tendon around it. [4] [5] The styloid process of the radius is a useful landmark during arthroscopic resection of the scaphoid bone. [6]
The radius is named so because the radius (bone) acts like the radius (of a circle). It rotates around the ulna and the far end (where it joins to the bones of the hand), known as the styloid process of the radius, is [clarification needed] the distance from the ulna (center of the circle) to the edge of the radius (the circle). The ulna acts ...
Lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus and the orbicular ligament of the radius: Insertion: Distal radius (radial styloid process) Artery: Radial recurrent artery: Nerve: Radial nerve (C5-C8 & T1) Actions: Flexion of elbow, supination and pronation of the radioulnar joint to 90° Identifiers; Latin: musculus brachioradialis: TA98: A04.6.02. ...
Distal radius fractures typically occur with the wrist bent back from 60 to 90 degrees. [5] Radial styloid fracture would occur if the wrist is ulnar deviated and vice versa. If the wrist is bent back less, then proximal forearm fracture would occur, but if the bending back is more, then the carpal bones fracture would occur.
The lateral border (radial side) is a pair of parallel and intimate tendons, of the extensor pollicis brevis and the abductor pollicis longus. [2] (Accordingly, the anatomical snuffbox is most visible, having a more pronounced concavity, during thumb extension.) The proximal border is formed by the styloid process of the radius
Lister's tubercle is used as a useful landmark during wrist arthroscopy and other wrist surgery. [1] [6] It is palpable on the dorsum of the wrist. [1] It is often difficult to clearly distinguish with radiography. [1] Hyperextension of the wrist can lead to fracture of Lister's tubercle, as pressure is increased from the extensor pollicis ...
In anatomy, a styloid process (from Greek stylos (στῦλος), "pillar"), usually serving as points of attachment for muscles, refers to the slender, pointed process (protrusion) of: temporal bone of the skull - Temporal styloid process; radius bone of the lower arm - Radial styloid process; ulna bone of the lower arm - Ulnar styloid process
It is performed in cases of radial–ulnar joint pain and instability. [1] The styloid process and muscular attachments are left intact. [2] Weakness and instability can develop after the procedure. It is most appropriate for elderly patients with low physical demands. [3]
