腕尺桡偏运动时腕韧带长度变化的活体研究

目的 研究腕关节在尺桡偏运动过程中,腕关节韧带长度的变化.方法 对6名志愿者腕关节进行CT扫描,获得腕关节在桡偏20°至尺偏40°内每隔20°的运动范围内各腕骨及尺桡骨远段三维重建图像.男3名,女3名,仅研究单侧右侧腕关节.年龄20～32岁,平均24岁.在腕关节尺桡偏运动过程中,在重建各腕骨及尺桡骨结构图像上以软件测量掌、背侧腕韧带的长度.结果 腕关节尺偏时桡舟头韧带、长桡月韧带、背侧腕间韧带止于舟骨、大多角骨和小多角骨部分的长度较中立位显著伸长,分别伸长(2.4±0.3)mm、(2.3±0.8)mm、(1.2±0.6)mm、(1.2±1.2)mm与(2.6±1.0)mm,差异均有统计学意义(P＜0.05);腕关节桡偏时尺头韧带与背侧桡腕韧带长度显著伸长(P＜0.05),分别为(0.8±0.6)mm和(1.0±0.5)mm.结论 在腕关节尺桡偏运动时,桡舟头韧带、长桡月韧带、背侧腕间韧带于桡偏位缩短,尺头韧带、背侧桡腕韧带长度于尺偏位缩短.这些位置可能使不同腕韧带张力降低,有利于损伤韧带的修复.

Changes in lengths of the wrist ligaments during wrist radioulnar deviation: an in vivo study

Objective To investigate changes in lengths of the wrist ligaments during wrist radioulnar deviation. Methods Six volunteers were included in the study. CT scans was used to detect the changes under different positions of the wrist in the volunteers. The wrists were scanned from the position of radial deviation of 20° to the one of ulnar deviation of 40° at an interval of 20°. The 3-dimensional carpal and distal radioulnar joint structures were reconstructed with customized software and chauges in length of the palmar and dorsal wrist ligaments in radioulnar deviation were computed. Results From wrist radial deviation to neutral position, the lengths of the radioscaphocapitate ligament, the long radiolunate ligament and the dorsal intercarpal ligament increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05), they increased (2.4±0.3) mm, (2.3±0.8) mm,(1.2±0.6) mm, (1.2±1.2)mm and (2.6±1.0) mm respectively. While from wrist ulnar deviation to neutral position, ulnocapitate ligament and the dorsal radiocarpal ligament increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05), they increased (0.8 ±0.6) nm and (1.0±0.5) mm respectively. Conclusion At wrist radial deviation, the radioscaphocapitate, long radiolunate and dorsal intercarpal ligaments are slack. At wrist ulnar deviation, the ulnocapitate ligament and the dorsal radiocarpal ligament are slack. These positions may be favorable to healing of these ligaments.
