The purpose of this article is review about the use of ultrasonography in the evaluation of the elbow joint. Ultrasonography has several key advantages in elbow joint, including easy assessment of target structure in elbow joint and ability to perform real time dynamic examination and to compare with opposite site. Ultrasonography is easy available to visualize abnormalities affecting tendons, muscles, ligaments, bursae, and occult fractures around the elbow joint and also allows accurate assessment of ulnar nerve in cubital tunnel. The role of ultrasonography will increase further with regards to evaluation of soft-tissue abnormalities of the elbow joint.

Purpose: Understanding elbow biomechanics is necessary to understand the pathophysiologic mechanism of elbow injury and to provide a scientific basis for clinical practice. This article provides a summary of key concepts that are relevant to understanding common elbow injuries and their management. Materials and Methods: The biomechanics of the elbow joint can be divided into kinematics, stability and force transmission through the elbow joint. Active and passive stabilizers include bony articular geometry; soft tissues provide joint stability, compression force and motion. Results and Conclusion: Knowledge of elbow biomechanics will help (i) advance surgical procedures and trauma management, (ii) develop new elbow prostheses and (iii) stimulate future research.

The isometric position for the graft is important in the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. It is well known that the femoral position is more critical than tibial side. But, there is few deciding method of proper graft position after the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. So we planned to evaluate the ideal femoral isometric position with 6 adult cadavaric femurs and exact radiographs. After the insertion of femoral interference screw on ideal isometric position, we obtained roentgenograms of true lateral view and 10, 20, 30, 45 degree internal and external rotation views. Then we measured the shortest distance from the posterior cortical margin of lateral femoral condyle to posterior border of interference screw on the radiographs. We also measured true distance between posterior cortical margin of lateral femoral condyle to the posterior margin of femoral tunnel after cutting of distal femur. Based on this study, we could not determine the permissible rotation degree of radiographs. But we concluded that if the distance between posterior cortical margin of lateral femoral condyle and posterior border of interference screw ranges 4.5-6.5mm on the lateral view, the femoral position is considered as a relatively ideal isometric good position.

A ganglion cyst is a soft tissue mass that is surrounded by a dense connective-tissue capsule. The capsule is filled with a viscous fluid that is rich in hyaluronic acid and other mucopolysaccharides. But, Ganglion cysts in the knee joint are rare. There are very few case reports of ganglion cysts related to the surface of the anterior cruciate ligament, Posterior cruciate ligament and medial meniscus. We are reporting a case of a ganglion cyst in the anterior aspect of the anterior cruciate ligament accompanying with discoid lateral meniscus in the right knee of a 46-year-old woman without any history of trauma. The cyst and discoid lateral meniscus were treated successfully with arthroscopic excision and partial meniscectomy.

The PCL reconstruction in chronic isolate PCL reconstruction was still controversy. 1) In isolate PCL deficient knee, functionally not so bad as like ACL deficient knee. 2) The result of the PCL reconstruction was not as good as ACL reconstruction. Therefore, isolate PCL injuries has been treated as nonoperatively. Hey Grovere, who was the first to attempt an intra-articular reconstruction of the PCL, utilized the semi-tendinous tendon other static procedures have been described in only a few cases with very limited follow-up. Dynamic procedures utilizing the medial head of the gastrocnemius has been reported by Hugston and Degenhardt, Kennedy and Grainger, and Insall and Hood. These procedures did not improve static stability. Dr Clancy, who was introduce the use of BPTB for the PCL reconstruction transtibial and femoral tunnel. From 1995, untill early 1990 PCL reconstruction was done as tend as placement of the isometric point. Physiometic placement of Anatomical placement of the femoral tunnel in PCL reconstruction were introduced in 1995. Tibial Inlay Technique was reported by Dr Berg in 1995. The main advantage of the tibial Inlay Technique was to avoid fraying of the graft at the posterior tibial tunnel orifice. In complete PCL ruptured and severely posterior unstable knee, dual femoral tunnel technique will be to get better result than one bundle technique. To achieve restoration of normal posterior laxity, it is critical to address the posterior as well as the posterolateral structures. Futher research is necessary to evaluate new surgical approches such as double-bundle reconstructions and tibial inlay techniques as well as improved techniques for capsular and collateral ligament injuries.

The wrist joint was consisted with various bones, ligaments, and muscles. The wrist joint is difficult to understand, because of its complicated anatomical structure. The wrist joint is not one space but three joints; radiocarpal joint between distal radioulnar and proximal carpal bone, midcarpal joint between proximal and distal carpal bone, and distal radioulnar joint between distal radius and ulnar head. Normally each joint is separated from each other. Exact understanding about normal anatomy of the wrist joint is necessary for treatment of disease and injury in wrist joint. In this reviews, we will see normal anatomy of the wrist joint.

Ultrasonographic examination of the stifle joint four clinically and radiographically normal adult dogs was performed before and after inducing the cranial cruciate ligament (CrCL) rupture of the bilateral stifle surgically. At Pre- or post-surgery, the hyperechoic patella ligament and the echogenic infrapatella fat interfered the visualization of the CrCL by the plain scanning method. However when the stifle joint was imaged by the scanning method injecting normal saline within the joint capsule, the hyperechogenic ligament was visualized by the separation of the infrapatella fat and the CrCL and the contrast effect of anechoic saline. When the stifle joint was imaged by the real time scanning method after the induction of the surgical rupture, fluttering of the ligament and anechoic area between the bone and the CrCL was identified due to the lack of tonicity and continuity of the ligament. Enlargement of the ligament because of its increased diameter as well as fluttering of the CrCL and the increased joint space's thickness was visualized. Consequently, confirming fluttering of the CrCL, increased ligament diameter and anechoic region between the CrCL and the bone, ultrasonographic examination is a valuable diagnostic tool as well as cranial drawer test and radiographic examination.

Inversion injury of the lateral ankle ligaments is very common. Few studies, however, have focused on avulsion fracture of the lateral ankle ligaments. A fracture producing a small fragment usually avulsed from lateral malleolus and may be easily misdiagnosed as a sprain because the fragment is superimposed on the lateral malleolus and goes undetected on early radiographs, especially in skeletally immature patients. We present a case of isolated avulsion fracture of the talar attachment of the anterior talofibular ligament in 13-year-old male patient. Diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography and avulsed fragment was fixed to original talar footprint with suture anchors. A high level of suspicion must be maintained to obtain an accurate diagnosis of avulsion fracture in inversion ankle injury because of the high incidence in children and to prevent recurrent instability.

Underlying dress forms for high coverage patterns are very important in the dress industry. Size 9 from brand D was chosen according to the analysis that it was the best option because a dress should have a large allowable range in one size. The criteria for selection were the dress form with a waist circumference of 63.50 centimeters, which is close to the standard size of women in Korea. Brassieres for dresses were included to enhance the aesthetic value of the correction process in producing a basic dress pattern. An experimental torso pattern was applied to evaluate the fit and suitability of the dress form that was also later verified in the process of the dress works. Three dresses were produced and presented on the chosen study dress form. The research procedures are as follows. First, the sell-through rates and feedbacks were collected from the dress form vendor. Second, a literature survey on dresses and a dress company investigation were conducted. Third, the amount of body dimension changes due to the use of a bra in the dresses were examined. Fourth, after the correction of the dress form, the torso pattern was made by draping. Fifth, the torso experimental clothing made of muslin material was evaluated. Sixth, the dress works of the top design were presented using the size 9 basic pattern developed by brand D.
