  2. Interspinous ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interspinous_ligament

    The interspinous ligaments (interspinal ligaments) are thin, membranous ligaments that connect adjoining spinous processes of the vertebra in the spine. [1] [2] They take the form of relatively weak sheets of fibrous tissue and are well developed only in the lumbar region. [3] They extend from the root to the apex of each spinous process.

  3. Soft tissue injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_tissue_injury

    A soft tissue injury is the damage of muscles, ligaments and tendons throughout the body. Common soft tissue injuries usually occur from a sprain, strain, a one-off blow resulting in a contusion or overuse of a particular part of the body. Soft tissue injuries can result in pain, swelling, bruising and loss of function. [1]

  4. Chance fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chance_fracture

    A CT scan is recommended as part of the diagnostic work-up to detect any potential abdominal injuries. [5] The fracture is often unstable. [1] Treatment may be conservative with the use of a brace or via surgery. [1] The fracture is currently rare. [7] It was first described by G. Q. Chance, a radiologist from Manchester, UK, in 1948.

    MRI of a lumbar spinal stenosis L4-L5. L4-L5 antherolisthesis of grade I. Hypertrophy of interspinous ligaments in relation to Baastrup's disease. 67 years old man. MRI is the preferred method of diagnosing and evaluating spinal stenosis of all areas of the spine, including cervical, thoracic, and lumbar.

  6. Nuchal ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuchal_ligament

    The nuchal ligament is unusual in being a ligament with an elastic component, allowing for stretch. [5] Structurally, the nuchal ligament is formed with the association of both elastin proteins as well as type III collagen (45%). The collagen fibrils share a consistent size as well as helical pattern which gives the ligament its tensile ...

  7. Supraspinous ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraspinous_ligament

    Lesions to the supraspinous ligament may result in palpable thickening. [5] Ultrasound is effective for detecting lesions. [5] [6] A strain injury can also damage the supraspinous ligament. [7] The supraspinous ligament creates resistance during midline epidural anaesthetics when the needle is being inserted.

  8. Ligamenta flava - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligamenta_flava

    The ligamenta flava (sg.: ligamentum flavum, Latin for yellow ligament) are a series of ligaments that connect the ventral parts of the laminae of adjacent vertebrae. They help to preserve upright posture, preventing hyperflexion, and ensuring that the vertebral column straightens after flexion. Hypertrophy can cause spinal stenosis.

  9. Supraspinatus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supraspinatus_muscle

    A 2016 study evaluating the effectiveness of arthroscopic treatment of rotator cuff calcification firmly supported surgical intervention. Calcification of the supraspinatus tendon is a major contributor to shoulder pain in the general population and is often worsened following a supraspinatus tear.
