Inhoudsopgave
Waar zit tibia?
Het plateau van de knie (ook genoemd ’tibia plateau’) is het dragende gedeelte van het scheenbeen (de tibia) dat samen met het dijbeen het kniegewricht vormt. Het plateau van de tibia is bedekt met kraakbeen en vormt zo een glad gewrichtsoppervlak.
What is a distal tibial metaphyseal fracture?
These fractures occur at the ankle end of the tibia. They are also called tibial plafond fractures. One of the common types in children is the distal tibial metaphyseal fracture. This is a fracture in the metaphysis, the part of tibia before it reaches its widest point.
What causes the medial metaphysis of the tibia to grow?
Although many theories have been advanced, the most likely mechanism is an increased vascular response leading to stimulation of growth of the medial metaphysis of the proximal end of the tibia. 137–139
Where does the MCL attach to the medial tibial metaphysis?
The MCL extends from the medial femoral epicondyle and attaches below the joint into the medial tibial metaphysis ▸ it appears as a thin band of signal void (on coronal images) Associations: medial and posterior capsular tears (with a complete rupture) ▸ a lateral tibial plateau bone contusion (± a non-displaced compression fracture)
What is a transverse fracture of the tibia?
This is a fracture in the metaphysis, the part of tibia before it reaches its widest point. These fractures are usually transverse (across) or oblique (slanted) breaks in the bone. Distal tibial metaphyseal fractures usually heal well after setting them without surgery and applying a cast.
Het plateau van de knie (ook genoemd ’tibia plateau’) is het dragende gedeelte van het scheenbeen (de tibia) dat samen met het dijbeen het kniegewricht vormt. Het tibiaplateau zit aan de bovenkant van het scheenbeen. Het plateau van de tibia is bedekt met kraakbeen en vormt zo een glad gewrichtsoppervlak.
What is an accessory navicular?
The accessory navicular (os navicularum or os tibiale externum) is an extra bone or piece of cartilage located on the inner side of the foot just above the arch.
However, trauma to the foot can sometimes cause the accessory navicular to pull apart from the main bone, and when the two bones rub together, they can become inflamed. Once the tiny bone is inflamed, it’s difficult to reduce the inflammation without medical intervention. An accessory navicular can also be the source of flatfeet.
Although some people with an accessory navicular bone never develop symptoms, a bump can develop in the affected region that can lead to irritation, swelling, and pain. This painful condition is sometimes referred to as “accessory navicular syndrome.” [4][1]Inheritance appears to be autosomal dominant.
What are the treatment options for accessory navicular bone?
For people with accessory navicular bone who experience severe symptoms, surgery may be considered to remove the bony growth. Other treatments may include medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories(NSAIDs), immobilizing the area with a cast or boot, and physical therapy.
