The Effect of Scapholunate Interval and Angle on Radiocarpal Joint Loading

Radioscaphoid and RL joint loading properties change with an increased SL interval and angle. An increased SL angle alters radiocarpal joint loading to a greater extent than an increased SL interval. As a result, an increased SL angle likely has a more significant impact on the development of carpal arthrosis.

Abstract

Radioscaphoid and RL joint loading properties change with an increased SL interval and angle. An increased SL angle alters radiocarpal joint loading to a greater extent than an increased SL interval. As a result, an increased SL angle likely has a more significant impact on the development of carpal arthrosis.
