In radiology, the Terry-Thomas sign is a scapholunate ligament dissociation on an anteroposterior view of the wrist. [1] [2] Most commonly a result of a fall on the outstretched hand , the scapholunate ligament ruptures resulting in separation of the lunate and scaphoid bones. This burst causes the scaphoid bone to dorsally rotate. [3]
The scapholunate ligament is an intraarticular ligament binding the scaphoid and lunate bones of the wrist together. It is divided into three areas, dorsal, proximal and palmar, with the dorsal segment being the strongest part. [3] It is the main stabilizer of the scaphoid. In contrast to the scapholunate ligament, the lunotriquetral ligament ...
The PA wrist x-ray will demonstrate sclerosis and joint space narrowing between the lunate and capitate. Over time, the capitate will migrate proximally into the space created by the scapholunate dissociation. [2] The radiographic findings in Stage III SLAC wrist are synonymous with the Terry-Thomas sign, indicating complete scapholunate ...
Wrist osteoarthritis is gradual loss of articular cartilage and hypertrophic bone changes (osteophytes). While in many joints this is part of normal aging (senescence), in the wrist osteoarthritis usually occurs over years to decades after scapholunate interosseous ligament rupture or an unhealed fracture of the scaphoid.
The fracture may be preventable by using wrist guards during certain activities. [1] In those in whom the fracture remains well aligned a cast is generally sufficient. [2] If the fracture is displaced then surgery is generally recommended. [2] Healing may take up to six months. [1] It is the most commonly fractured carpal bone. [3]

Scaphoid fracture with nonunion; Scapholunate dissociation; Scapholunate ligament instability (rupture of this ligament leads to wrist instability) Triangular fibrocartilage complex (injury and degeneration) De Quervain tenosynovitis (when two tendons that control movement of the thumb become constricted by their tendinous sheath in the wrist)
How to find your resting heart rate: Using your index and middle finger, find your pulse (at your wrist or neck). Count the number of beats in 15 seconds, then multiply that number by four ...
