Volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) is a type of instability involving the wrist. Studies by Trumble and colleagues 4 and Viegas and coworkers 5 showed that sectioning of the TCL or the dorsal radiocarpal ligament (DRCL), also known as the dorsal radiotriquetral ligament, could produce a volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) deformity and simulate PMCI. Eight patients from 3 centers developed abnormal volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) or dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) following the diagnosis of a nondisplaced scaphoid fracture. The Radiology Assistant : Carpal instability Transscaphoid, transtriquetral, transcapitate dislocation with a volar intercalated segment instability pattern is a very rare pattern of carpal injury. • L‐T and Mid‐carpal instability: ECU and hypothenarsare dynamic stabilizers. Volar Intercalated Segment Instability (VISI) volar flexion of the lunate relative to the longitudinal axis of the radius and capitate, when the wrist rests in a neutral position lunate will tend to flex when there is loss of ulnar support from the triquetrum may result from disruption of radial carpal ligaments on ulnar side of wrist Injury inter-osseous ligaments - within the carpal rows - disassociative rather than associative motion between the bones of each row. SLL Tear and DISI Deformity - Radsource - treatment: capitolunate fusion; - Radiographs: lateral view of wrist - Management: - space of Poirier is reenforced and is closed, which closes down the space between the triquetro-hamate and triquetro-capitate ligaments. While most DISI is abnormal, in many cases VISI is a normal variant, especially if the wrist is very lax. It is less often encountered than dorsal intercalated segmental instability (DISI). dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI); volar intercalate segment instability (VISI). Latent carpal instability presents with the development of carpal instability dissociative (CID) in either the volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) form (CID-VISI) or the dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) form (CID-DISI). A scaphoid fracture may collapse to a humpback deformity due to shortening of the volar cortical length and can cause dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) [23]. . Lunotriquetral ligament injuries can be partial or complete, and the latter may be associated with injury of secondary stabilisers. It occurs mainly after the disruption of the scapholunate ligament and is more often encountered than volar intercalated segment instability (VISI). Skills. Placing fixation on the palmar aspect of the . She was a col-lege student and had a fall from bike with the . Scapholunate Ligament Injury is a source of dorsoradial wrist pain with chronic injuries leading to a form of wrist instability (DISI deformity). lunotriquetral ligament. Carpal injuries are frequently underdiagnosed and underreported injuries of the hand. Background Posttraumatic midcarpal instability nondissociative (CIND) is an exceptional rare condition, therefore the outcome after different treatment options remains unknown.Questions The purpose of this study was to investigate the different treatment options for posttraumatic CIND. Midcarpal Instability (MCI) is characterized by a lack of support of the proximal carpal row and the midcarpal joint and loss of normal joint forces between proximal . Open surgery with a combined volar and dorsal approach is thought to have poor functional outcomes and a prolonged recovery course. It is less often encountered than dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI). Clinical presentation ! Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) is a form of instability involving the wrist.It occurs mainly after the disruption of the scapholunate ligament and is more often encountered than volar intercalated segment instability (VISI). The treatment of . • Imaging findings of capitolunate angle >30˚ and scapholunate angle <30° Severe LT instability with significant damage to both the dorsal the radiotriquetral and the scaphotriquetral ligament results in volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) 3, 4, 6; static instability (VISI) is not readily . Pathology. URL of Article. The average final grip strength was 67% from the non-affected side. Face to Face with Scapholunate Instability. There is no consensus on the appropriate treatment of lunotriquetral instability. The scapholunate angle is greater than 60 degrees and there may be a positive ring sign and Terry Thomas sign. gravity-induced palmar-flexed position—volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI), a dynamic flexion deformity occurs with a volar-flexed lunate, which persists until the last few degrees of ulnar deviation, at which point the proximal row suddenly snaps into its reduced, extended position (Feinstein & Lichtman, 1998; Litchman, 1997 . . VISI configuration. Furthermore, there was no evidence of any static or dynamic instability in all the patients except for one patient who developed a volar intercalated segment instability 8 months after the surgery. The names refer to the abnormal position assumed by the carpal bones because they are not tethered appropriately. Ahmed Elsaftawy* St. Hedwig's Hospital, Trzebnica, Poland. Dorsal intercalated segment instability ( DISI ) is a form of carpal instability featuring dorsal tilt of the lunate. Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) with a scapholunate angle of approximately 90° (S, scaphoid; L, lunate (red)). abnormal translocation of lunate ulnarward Many small carpal joints enable significant motion in the coronal and sagittal planes and three-dimensional rotatory motions around the longitudinal axis with the radioulnar joints. The angle is increased in carpal instability such as with a dorsal intercalated segment instability and volar intercalated segment instability. • Injury to lunotriquetral ligament results in Volar Intercalated Segment Instability (VISI) • Lunotriquetral ligament injury • Lunate volarly flexed resulting from scaphoid flexion, which remains attached to the lunate by the intact scapholunate ligament. Volar Intercalated Segment Instability (VISI) volar flexion of the lunate relative to the longitudinal axis of the radius and capitate, when the wrist rests in a neutral position lunate will tend to flex when there is loss of ulnar support from the triquetrum may result from disruption of radial carpal ligaments on ulnar side of wrist man has called midcarpal instability 26 and would be classified as a carpal instability nondisso6iative (CiND) Lunotriquetral tear 2nd most frequent carpal instability Volar intercalated segment instability= VISI •Scaph Flex & Pronates •Lun Extends& Supinates TRI Treatment is surgical stabilization.

Transscaphoid, transtriquetral, transcapitate dislocation with a volar intercalated segment instability pattern is a very rare pattern of carpal injury. ciation, a dorsal intercalated segment instability pattern is seen. All patients had negative shifting tests at final follow-up. VISI or volarflexion instability. 2. Identify the surface anatomy distal edge of radius, scaphoid, lunate and triquetrum on an uninjured wrist. Volar intercalated segmental instability or palmar flexion instability is when the lunate is tilted palmarly too much. This results from disruption of the scapholunate lig-ament and the extrinsic volar scapho-lunate ligaments. ciation, a dorsal intercalated segment instability pattern is seen. LT ligament injury occurs with. LoE: 2A] When the triquetrum no longer holds the lunate, it falls into a tightened position because of the pressure the capitate and its connection with the scaphoid exerts. It is less often encountered than dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI). CID is further broken down to dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) and volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) depending on the ligament that has been compromised (scapholunate ligament or lunotriquetral ligament, respectively). a type of Carpal Instability Dissociative (CID) caused by advanced injury with injury to. The scaphoid rotates palmarly, and the scapholunate angle °. carpal instability, scapholunate ligament, lunotriquetral ligament, perilunate dislocation, dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI), volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) Skills. Perform a Watson test during clinical exam. The scapholunate and lunotriquetral joints were fixed with Kirschner wires for 7 weeks. •CIND - Volar Intercalated Segment Instability (VISI) •CIND - Dorsal Intercalated Segment Instability (DISI) •Combined CIND Carpal Instability CIA - Adaptive Extra-carpal derangement causing carpal malalignment Midcarpal instability caused by malunited fractures of the distal radius Taleisnik, JHS 1984 Carpal Instability CIC - Complex Later in the 1900s, volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) began to be defined. Mayfield et al. o This occurrence is due to the pull of the ulnar intrinsic muscles (stronger) compared to their radial counterparts. However, the detailed recovery course for this approach is rarely reported. The wrist is vulnerable to axial forces and deforming vectors due to its structure and the large range of motion. Dorsal radiolunotriquetral ligament as well) injury is its volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) pattern. Likewise, a VISI deformity occurs when the lunate appears flexed relative to the radius as the capitate moves proximally. Introduction Scapholunate dissociation is the most common form of wrist instability, defined as "the loss of synchronous motion or normal alignment between the scaphoid and the lunate". extension and radial deviation. Scapholunate perilunate dissociation is the most common perilunate instability pattern seen in clinical practice. Case Report. However, this is much less common. Clinically, the patient was pain free near full wrist and forearm range of motion and could perform his previous vocational and . It has to be reduced in the treatment of scaphoid waist nonunions to avoid kinetic problems that will lead to arthritic changes. The vertical lunate axis extends beyond 15°. Detachment from the lunate may cause Volar Intercalated Segmental Instability - VISI deformity. This encompasses two conditions commonly called skiier's thumb when done acutely or game keepers thumb chronically. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a concise yet comprehensive overview of carpal instability. The earliest reported LT injury was in 1903, which was then followed by a description of carpal dissociation of the lunate and triquetrum without significant change in position in 1913. Patients with an SLL injury often present with a 'click' or 'pain' on the dorso-radial aspect of the wrist and there is often an episode of clear injury preceding . A dorsal intercalated segmental instability (DISI) deformity occurs when the lunate assumes an extended position on the lateral radiograph relative to the radius as the capitate migrates proximally. The treatment algorithm can probably be based on the type and age of the injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the recovery course and radiographic outcome for patients with scaphoid nonunion who . Diagnosis is made with PA wrist radiographs showing widening of the SL joint. LT dissociation, the most severe form of LT tears, can be seen on lateral radiographs as a static volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) pattern. Perform a Watson test during clinical exam. A.Dorsiflexion (DISI) - scapholunate ligament . • Treatment options The ligament is often too short to repair primarily; thus, pinning of the LT interval is often performed, with or without ligament reconstruction. Clinical presentation It presents in most cases with nonspecific wrist.. Post traumatic palmar carpal subluxation. This disorder was first characterized as a true clinical syndrome by Lichtman increases beyond 60 In patients with dynamic wrist insta- This is the DISI (Dorsal Intercalated Segmental Instability) pattern (11a). It presents in most cases with nonspecific wrist pain and a "clunking" on the ulnar deviation of the wrist. Pathology ! The lateral x-rays show that the lunate now faces volarly (towards the palm). Palmar CIND The most common type of CIND is the palmar type, or CIND-VISI. DISI: Dorsi-flexion (Dorsal Intercalated Segment Instability) most common where lunate is rotated into dorsi-flexion (zig zag alignment of radiolunatocapitate alignment) VISI: Palmar flexion (Volar Intercalated Segment Instability or VISI) Ulnar Translocation. The scaphoid rotates palmarly, and the scapholunate angle °. Orthopaedics and the US Military. Outline the treatment options for carpal instability. look for calcification of volar capsule on lateral views. We also describe the different radiological and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in this patient cohort. Traumatic instability of the wrist. The scapholunate angle is used to differentiate between the two. This is called a VISI deformity, Volar Intercalated Segment Instability. Volar intercalated segment instability secondary to medial carpal ligamental laxity. A SLAC is scaphoid lunate advanced collapse and is the end result of a DISI. However, a volar flexed intercalated segment instability (VISI) deformity occurs when the interosseous ligament and the dorsal radiolunotriquetral ligament are disrupted. - volar intercalated segmental instability pattern (VlSI) Classification of Carpal Instabilities (Amadio) I. Carpal instability dissociative (CID) Transverse injury. ECU is the only wrist muscle which acts as a carpal pronator. We report 8 cases of acute or subacute unilateral nondissociative carpal instability (CIND) in the context of nondisplaced scaphoid fractures. Volar Intercalated Segmental Instability (VISI) is defined by the International Wrist Investigators' Workshop [6] as a general class of symptomatic carpal instability characterized by pathologic volar flexion of the lunate, with or without a similar posture of the other proximal carpal row bones, and asynchronous movement of the proximal After 33 months of follow-up radiographs showed no sign of degenerative joint disorder on simple X-ray, but slight Volar Intercalated Segment Instability (VISI) by a capitolunate angle of 26 degrees was noted. [1] then suggested that scapholunate disso-ciation is part of a progressive perilunar instability pattern. DISI x-ray findings. man has called midcarpal instability 26 and would be classified as a carpal instability nondisso6iative (CiND) When the LT ligament is torn, lunate rotates volarly with scaphoid, and in lateral view lunate faces volar What is more common,And SL ligament disruption or an LT ligament disruption? Report of two cases. The direction of the lunate relative to the axis of the radius determines whether DISI or VISI is present. o Wrist deformity, radial deviation, occurs after presentation is noted at the MCP joints ("zig-zag . increases beyond 60 In patients with dynamic wrist insta- A partial tear of the lunotriquetral interosseous ligament (LTIL) may be clinically suspected and should not have the associated volar intercalated-segment instability (VISI) deformity. The Treatment of Wrist Instability. . It occurs mainly after the disruption of the s capholunate ligament and is more often encountered than volar intercalated segment instability (VISI). Good outcome can be achieved in these injuries following open reduction and internal fixation with . Treatment may be conservative or surgical, depending on the clinical symptoms, and may include ligament repair or reconstruction, various forms of intercarpal fusion, proximal row carpectomy . Identify the surface anatomy distal edge of radius, scaphoid, lunate and triquetrum on an uninjured wrist. a fixed VISI (volar intercalated segmental instability) deformity may occur (but may require failure of other ligaments (ex. When these stabilisers are injured a static carpal instability, known as Volar Intercalated Segmentary Instability (VISI), occurs. Wrist & Hand 1. wrist hyperextension or. Developed by renowned radiologists in each specialty, STATdx provides comprehensive decision support you can rely on - Carpal Instability Volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) is a type of instability involving the wrist. Grade 4 scapholunate instability with dorsal intercalated segmental instability (DISI). Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) is a form of instability involving the wrist. A tear of the lunotriquetral ligament produces the opposite pattern, VISI (Volar Intercalated Segmental Instability), since the lunate is freed from the triquetrum and pulled volar by the scaphoid. • L‐T and Mid‐carpal instability: ECU and hypothenarsare dynamic stabilizers. VISI deformity. This results from disruption of the scapholunate lig-ament and the extrinsic volar scapho-lunate ligaments. In a VISI or volar intercalated segment instability, the LT and dorsal radiocarpal ligaments are disrupted and the lunate is pulled into flexion by the . With attenuation or injury to the dorsal intercarpal ligament, volar intercalated-segment instability (VISI) pattern follows; this can be visualized on lateral radiography. scaphoid induces the lunate into further flexion while triquetrum extends. Carpal ligament instability has been broadly defined as any malalignment of the carpus. Vol 79-B, No.4, July 1997 . Article Information Received date: April 26 . For example, if the lunate is . Treatment is surgical stabilization. Despite this, the wrist remains . Lunotriquetral tear 2nd most frequent carpal instability Volar intercalated segment instability= VISI •Scaph Flex & Pronates •Lun Extends& Supinates TRI In addition to DISI deformity, there is also VISI deformity (Volar Intercalated Segment Instability). The wrist is a highly complicated and adaptable structure. This encompasses two conditions commonly called skiier's thumb when done acutely or game keepers thumb chronically. (a) dorsal intercalated segmental instability (DISI), in which the scapholunate ligament is injured, and (b) volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) caused by rupture of the lunotriquetral ligament. Patients may present with stiffness, weakness, and osteoarthritis. - Non Operative Treatment: - following reduction, test ability to actively extend joint; . It occurs mainly after the disruption of the scapholunate ligament and is more often encountered than volar intercalated segment instability (VISI). Rheumatoid Arthritis. JBJS . Linscheid and Dobyns (1972), in a classical article on post-traumatic instability of the wrist described two major types of instability, dorsal and volar. The . ECU is the only wrist muscle which acts as a carpal pronator. pact, and treatment of these injuries.~r 51 ~5-2s Volar in-tercalated segment instability (VISI) has been attributed to triquetrohamate ligament disruption, which Licht- . Ulna Collateral Ligament tear. Volar intercalated segment instability ( VISI) is a type of carpal instability featuring volar tilt of the lunate. The volar surface of the scaphoid is concave, and therefore the scaphoid tends to volar flex, creating a humpback deformity. This includes radiocarpal, midcarpal, volar intercalated segment instability (CIND-VISI), and dorsal intercalated segment instability (CIND-DISI). Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) is a form of instability involving the wrist. cases, wrist. This causes symptoms in the wrist area, particularly when extending the wrist. We describe a case of 45-year-old female who had Kienbock disease with associated volar intercalated segment instability, detailing how the radiographic features can often cause a dilemma in the . As a result, there is often a delay in correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) and volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) are the most common patterns of carpal instability and are associated with scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligament injuries, respectively. SL dissociation is the most common form of CI. What is volar intercalated segmental instability VISI? AP View Terry Thomas Sign: Scapholunate gap >3mm with clenched fist view on the AP view. . Proper diagnosis and treatment by ligament repair and Kirschner wire fixation yielded good clinical results. Volar intercalated segment instability (VISI) is a type of instability involving the wrist. bility and volar intercalated segmental instability patterns. The vertical lunate axis extends beyond 15°. This is called a VISI deformity, Volar Intercalated Segment Instability. VISI Deformity. STUDY. As this injury draws more attention, surgeons are becoming more aggressive in treating these injuries to decrease the progression to degenerative arthritis. Dorsal intercalated segmental instability. Surgical treatment is necessary for scaphoid nonunion. stands for volar intercalated segment instability. Ulna Collateral Ligament tear. Dorsal intercalated segment instability (DISI) is a form of instability involving the wrist.It occurs mainly after the disruption of the scapholunate ligament and is more often encountered than volar intercalated segment instability (VISI). Radiographic features. When LT instability is present without arthrosis or volar intercalated segment instability (VISI), ligament debridement and capsular shrinkage is effective. The dorsal intercalated segment instability deformity associated with scaphoid waist nonunion is a nondissociative form of carpal instability. A VISI (volar intercalated segment instability) deformity develops as the lunate tilts volarly. On this page: Article: Clinical presentation. We describe a case with this unique pattern of injury, explaining its mechanism and treatment. Long Radiolunate Ligament (LRL): The main volar secondary stabilizer of the lunate. Dorsal Intercalated Segment Instability Complete SLIL and volar extrinsic rupture with secondary changes in radiolunate, scaphotrapezoid, and dorsal intercarpal ligaments Scapholunate diastasis 3mm or greater and radioscaphoid angle greater than 60 degrees on non-stress x-rays, radiolunate angle >15 degrees, capitolunate angle >15 degrees) Initially, wrist arthroscopy (including the midcarpal joint) should be performed to confirm the diagnosis, identify concomitant injuries, and guide the treatment. 1 The mechanism of injury is typically a fall with the wrist . Below, we describe a case with this unique pattern of injury, explaining its mechanism and treatment. We report a case of carpal instability complex, which presented apparent volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) caused by acute injury. Synonyms: Volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI) VISI. Lichtman and colleagues showed in vivo that tightening the DRCL alone can stabilize the proximal carpal row and . CIND-VISI [volar intercalated seg-mental instability]), dorsal CIND (or CIND-DISI [dorsal intercalated segmental instability]), combined CIND, and adaptive CIND (Figure 2). Case report A 16-year-old girl presented to our outpatient department with injury to her nondominant left wrist. 4 major types of carpal instability. The lateral x-rays show that the lunate now faces volarly (towards the palm). Wrist Compartments. Diagnosis of DISI deformity can be made with lateral wrist radiographs showing a scapholunate angle > 70 degrees. Dorsal Intercalated Segment Instability deformity in the setting of scaphoid non union 14 , and type 2 lunate wrists are associated with proximal hamate 41 and scapho- trapezial-trapezoidal joint 42 degeneration. o Ulnar drift and volar subluxation of the MCP joints. PLAY. The TFCC often is a component of more extensive ulnar-sided injuries 14 and does not preclude arthroscopic treatment. At the 1-year follow-up, magnetic resonance imaging showed no evidence of avascular necrosis of the scaphoid or lunate, and radiographs showed no evidence of the dorsal and volar intercalated segment instability patterns associated with carpal instability. A DISI deformity is a condition in which there is a mutual change in position of two carpal bones in the wrist joint. 8 They can be suggested on radiographic evaluation with typical findings and abnormal angulation of the .
