No osteoarthritis signs 1: Mild: increased osteosclerosis; minor joint space narrowing (normal joint space is at least 2 mm at the superior acetabulum) [7] no or minor loss of head sphericity; 2: Moderate: small bone cyst; moderate joint space narrowing; moderate loss of head sphericity; 3: Severe: large bone cysts
Acromioclavicular joint dislocations are graded from I to VI. Grading is based upon the degree of separation of the acromion from the clavicle with weight applied to the arm. Grade I is slight displacement of the joint, and a badly stretched or partially torn AC ligament. It has the normal separation of <4 mm.
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting about 237 million people or 3.3% of the world's population, as of 2015. [4] [12] It becomes more common as people age. [1] Among those over 60 years old, about 10% of males and 18% of females are affected. [2] Osteoarthritis is the cause of about 2% of years lived with disability. [12]
A separated shoulder, also known as acromioclavicular joint injury, is a common injury to the acromioclavicular joint. [2] The AC joint is located at the outer end of the clavicle where it attaches to the acromion of the scapula. [2] Symptoms include non-radiating pain which may make it difficult to move the shoulder.
These regenerative procedures are believed to delay osteoarthritis of injuries on the articular cartilage of the knee, by slowing down the degeneration of the joint compared to untreated damage. [2] According to Mithoefer et al. (2006), these articular cartilage repair procedures offer the best results when the intervention takes place in the ...
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) is a widely used, proprietary set of standardized questionnaires used by health professionals to evaluate the condition of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee and hip, including pain, stiffness, and physical functioning of the joints.
One of the three forms of shoulder arthritis is osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is the gradual wearing down of the joint cartilage that occurs predominantly in elderly people, and sometimes as the result of overuse in athletes. Post-traumatic arthritis happens after a significant trauma is sustained by the joint, ruining the cartilage. This ...
Osteoarthritis of the wrist can be idiopathic, but it is mostly seen as a post-traumatic condition. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] There are different types of post-traumatic osteoarthritis. Scapholunate advanced collapse ( SLAC ) is the most common form, followed by scaphoid non-union advanced collapse ( SNAC ). [ 3 ]
