The effect of radial head excision and arthroplasty on elbow kinematics and stability

DM Beingessner, CE Dunning, KD Gordon… - JBJS, 2004 - journals.lww.com
Background: Radial head fractures are common injuries. Comminuted radial head fractures
often are treated with radial head excision with or without radial head arthroplasty. The …

Ligamentous stabilizers against posterolateral rotatory instability of the elbow

CE Dunning, ZDS Zarzour, SD Patterson, JA Johnson… - JBJS, 2001 - journals.lww.com
Background: The lateral ulnar collateral ligament, the entire lateral collateral ligament complex,
and the overlying extensor muscles have all been suggested as key stabilizers against …

Finite element modeling mesh quality, energy balance and validation methods: A review with recommendations associated with the modeling of bone tissue

TA Burkhart, DM Andrews, CE Dunning - Journal of biomechanics, 2013 - Elsevier
The use of finite element models as research tools in biomechanics and orthopedics has
grown exponentially over the last 20 years. However, the attention to mesh quality, model …

Metallic radial head arthroplasty improves valgus stability of the elbow.

…, ZDS Zarzour, DA Rath, CE Dunning… - … Research (1976-2007 …, 1999 - journals.lww.com
The stabilizing influence of radial head arthroplasty was studied in eight medial collateral
ligament deficient anatomic specimen elbows. An elbow testing apparatus, which used …

Soft-tissue stabilizers of the distal radioulnar joint: an in vitro kinematic study

WT Gofton, KD Gordon, CE Dunning… - The Journal of hand …, 2004 - Elsevier
PURPOSE: Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) stability is dependent on osseous anatomy, soft-tissue
stabilizers, and muscle activity. The relative importance of DRUJ soft-tissue stabilizers …

Muscle forces and pronation stabilize the lateral ligament deficient elbow

CE Dunning, ZDS Zarzour, SD Patterson… - Clinical Orthopaedics …, 2001 - journals.lww.com
The influence of muscle activity and forearm position on the stability of the lateral collateral
ligament deficient elbow was investigated in vitro, using a custom testing apparatus to …

A biomechanical comparison of four reconstruction techniques for the medial collateral ligament-deficient elbow

AD Armstrong, CE Dunning, LM Ferreira… - Journal of shoulder and …, 2005 - Elsevier
The initial strength of the intact medial collateral ligament (MCL) of the elbow and the strength
of 4 reconstruction techniques were compared. Twenty cadaveric upper extremities were …

The effect of coronoid fractures on elbow kinematics and stability

DM Beingessner, CE Dunning, RA Stacpoole… - Clinical …, 2007 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Coronoid fractures often occur in the setting of more complex elbow trauma.
Little is known about the influence of coronoid fracture size on elbow kinematics, …

Rehabilitation of the medial collateral ligament-deficient elbow: an in vitro biomechanical study

AD Armstrong, CE Dunning, KJ Faber, TR Duck… - The Journal of hand …, 2000 - Elsevier
The purpose of this study was to determine the relative contribution of muscle activity and
the effect of forearm position on the stability of the medial collateral ligament (MCL)-deficient …

The effect of the density–modulus relationship selected to apply material properties in a finite element model of long bone

…, JS Milner, DW Holdsworth, CE Dunning - Journal of …, 2008 - Elsevier
Material property assignment is a critical step in developing subject-specific finite element
models of bone. Inhomogeneous material properties are often applied using an equation …
