Sentences with phrase «abnormal joint wear»

Not exact matches

The result of the instability in the joint is abnormal wear of the cartilage.

This condition affects the weight - bearing joints (hips, knees, elbows, shoulders), causing loss of lubricating fluids, wearing away of cartilage, and abnormal bone growth.

These theories include failure of transition of cartilage to bone during development, and excessive wear and tear on the coronoid process due to joint incongruity which places abnormal stresses on the developing bone.

The looseness creates abnormal wear and erosion of the joint and as a result pain and arthritis develops.

If left undiagnosed and untreated, this instability causes abnormal wear of the hip cartilage and ultimately progresses to osteoarthritis or degenerative joint disease.

This gross malformation in the hip joint leads to abnormal wear and tear as well as friction within the hip joint itself.

Also the caput and / or acetabulum are not smooth and round but are misshapen, causing abnormal wear and tear or friction within the joint as it moves.

It occurs when cartilage in the joint is damaged, either following a traumatic event or with wear and tear that increases in athletic animals, obese animals, or when the joint is congenitally abnormal.

This leads to inflammation, pain, abnormal wear of the joint surfaces, and lameness.

Hip dysplasia is painful in young dogs because abnormal wear of joint cartilage exposes pain fibers in underlying bone and laxity causes stretching of surrounding soft tissues.

Abnormal development of the hip causes excessive wear of the joint cartilage during weight bearing, eventually leading to the development of arthritis, often called degenerative joint disease (DJD) or osteoarthritis (OA).

Wear between the bones and meniscal cartilage becomes abnormal and the joint begins to develop degenerative changes.

Due to the abnormal wear and tear of the hip joint, the condition may deteriorate progressively as the dog's skeletal system fully develops.

This technique involves removing the femoral portion of the hip joint (i.e., the ball) to reduce the pain produced by abnormal hip joint contact that wears away the joint cartilage, and the stretching of the soft tissues around the joint due to laxity (Figure 5).

In most cases when the joint is opened, even in a «fresh rupture», there is obvious evidence that there has been ongoing arthritis in the joint, indicating abnormal movement (and wear and tear) for a prolonged period of time.

The resulting mechanical looseness of the joint (hip laxity or subluxation) causes abnormal wear on the cartilage that line the femoral head.
