Histological studies affirm that functional restoration of the rotator cuff occurs through this repair process and that the original fibrocartilage enthesis between the tendon and bone does not regenerate.
There are several anatomic blocks that can be encountered when attempting a reduction including impaction of the ulnar head, spasm of the pronator quadratus, and interposition of the torn triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) [3-5].
This correlate well with the study done by Shankman et al, [16] wherein they stated that tear of the anterior horns of lateral meniscus is unusual and false positive findings on MRI are probably due to increased signal in the anterior horn of lateral meniscus, because of the junction in the fibrocartilage and collagen at the central attachment site of the anterior horn of lateral meniscus and anterior cruciate ligament.
Drum concurs with James Cyriax when he states: "The first measure to be considered in all disc lesions is manipulation." (8) The form of manipulation Drum refers to is a "chiropractic adjustment" and because that has many connotations he details the rationale and protocol for handling: Fibrocartilage Hinge; Disc Bulge; Disc Thinning; Hypermobile Subluxations; Root Compression without Herniation and Posterior Facet Abnormalities.
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPDD) is a crystal arthropathy caused by the deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dehydrate in and around joints, particularly in articular cartilage and fibrocartilage. The 'Pseudogout syndrome' was first described by Kohn et al.
