Surgical treatment is used when the mallet finger presents as an open injury or if the bony mallet involves more than 30 % of the articular surface of the joint.
42.
The articular surface of the condyle is covered by fibrous tissue, and interfaces with an articular disk ( or meniscus ) of avascular, non-innervated fibrous tissue ( collagen, fibroblasts ).
43.
Degenerative joint disease, such as osteoarthritis or organic degeneration of the articular surfaces, recurrent fibrous or bony ankylosis, developmental abnormality, or pathologic lesions within the TMJ . Myofascial pain syndrome.
44.
This discus is attached by thick tissue to the base of the ulnar styloid and by thinner tissue to the edge of the radius just proximal to the radiocarpal articular surface.
45.
This center moves upward and backward during flexion, while the distance between the center and the articular surfaces of the femur changes dynamically with the decreasing curvature of the femoral condyles.
46.
When a spinal manipulation is performed, the applied force separates the articular surfaces of a fully encapsulated synovial joint, which in turn creates a reduction in pressure within the joint cavity.
47.
These two articular surfaces are separated by a prominent ridge, to which the base of the triangular articular disk is attached; this disk separates the wrist-joint from the distal radioulnar articulation.
48.
The volar surface is grooved in the middle line for the passage of the flexor tendons, and marked on either side by an articular eminence continuous with the terminal articular surface.
49.
Most chondromyxoid fibromas are located in the metaphyseal region of long bones ( 60 % ), and may extend to the epiphyseal line and even rarely abut the articular surface 3, 12.
50.
Each of these lateral articular surfaces is divided into two by a vertical ridge; the two anterior facets articulate with the third metatarsal; the two posterior ( sometimes continuous ) with the lateral cuneiform.
