    Abstract Total elbow arthroplasty is currently an established surgical treatment for several pathologies of the elbow. Although initially used primarily in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, indications for total elbow arthroplasty have expanded and now include trauma, primary and secondary osteoarthritis, fracture nonunion, and following neoplasm resection. Desired outcomes of elbow arthroplasty include decreasing patient pain, restoration of function and mobility, and prevention of or treatment for instability. In comparison with total elbow arthroplasty, radial head replacements are most commonly performed following trauma. An additional technique, capitellar resurfacing arthroplasty, was developed in an effort to prevent early-onset osteoarthritis secondary to altered elbow biomechanics following radial head replacement. Complications of these surgeries include loosening, fracture, instability and dissociation, bushing wear, and particle disease.

    Abstract We present a case of anterior cruciate ligament stump entrapment in a 24-year-old gentleman who traumatically injured his knee. The anterior stump became entrapped in the intercondylar notch and after a process of inflammation and fibrosis, produced a mass similar to the more familiar cyclops lesion that may complicate anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

    Abstract The etiology of Kienböck disease, or avascular necrosis of the lunate, is controversial, and there are a myriad of treatments aimed at correcting the various hypothesized pathologies. Interventions to reduce mechanical stress on the lunate have been used for decades, including radial osteotomy with or without radial shortening, ulnar lengthening and metaphyseal core decompression procedures. However, these procedures require preservation of lunate architecture. Newer procedures to revascularize the lunate bone have emerged in the last 10 years, such as pedicled corticoperiosteal vascularized bone grafting. Once there is collapse of the radiocarpal joint or midcarpal arthrosis, the conventional treatments have included proximal row carpectomy and complete or partial wrist joint arthrodesis. Newer salvage procedures such as lunate excision with autologous or synthetic interposition grafts are now being used when possible. As this disease is relatively rare, radiologists may not be familiar with the expected post-operative radiologic findings and complications, especially of the newer treatments. The goals of this paper are to review the available treatment options and their expected appearance on postoperative imaging, with discussion of possible complications when appropriate.

    Abstract Objective: To determine the clinical significance of T2 signal hyperintensity in the proximal patellar tendon seen on MRI of the knee.
    Materials and methods: MRIs of 100 patients who underwent MRI of the knee between 1 May 2018 and 15 July 2018 were retrospectively evaluated. All examinations were performed on 3-Tesla MRI scanners with a dedicated knee coil and in accordance with our institution's standard knee MRI protocol. The presence of increased T2 signal was assessed on both sagittal and axial T2-weighted fat-saturated images. The amount of increased signal in the proximal patellar tendon on T2-weighted images was characterized as: none, mild, moderate, or severe. A corresponding chart review of the referring physicians' notes was performed to determine the presence of clinical symptoms of patellar tendinopathy. Patellar tendinopathy was considered present if the clinical notes described tenderness on palpation of the inferior patellar pole, infrapatellar tenderness, or patellar tendinosis/tendinitis.
    Results: The majority (66%) of knee MRIs demonstrated the presence of increased T2 signal in the proximal patellar tendon. Only 4.5% of these patients had associated clinical findings of patellar tendinopathy.
    Conclusion: Although increased T2 signal in the proximal patellar tendon is a common finding, only in rare cases are there associated clinical symptoms. Thus, increased T2 signal in the proximal patellar tendon may not be a pathological finding in the absence of clinical findings of patellar tendinopathy.

    Abstract The tendons of the wrist are commonly symptomatic. They can be injured, infected, or inflamed. Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasonography are useful tools for evaluating the wrist. Pathologic conditions of the wrist tendons include de Quervain tenosynovitis, extensor carpi ulnaris tendinopathy, rheumatoid tenosynovitis, infectious synovitis, tendon tears, hydroxyapatite deposition disease, intersection syndrome, tenosynovial giant cell tumor, and fibroma of the tendon sheath. In this article, we review the normal appearance of the wrist tendons, discuss relevant anatomy, and give an overview of common pathologic conditions affecting the wrist tendons. Online supplemental material is available for this article.
