Q

Most commonly occurring fracture in adults. The mechanism of injury is usually a fall on an outstretched hand. The risk of injury is increased in patients with osteoporosis. Because of the rich blood supply to the distal end of the radius, bony union is usually good.

A

Colle’s fracture

184
Q

Less common injury of distal radius Usually occurs as a
result of a fall on the dorsum of the hand
with wrist flexion. Palmar displacement of distal fragment

A

Smith’s fracture

185
Q

Repeated forceful flexion and extension of the wrist may
strain the attachment of the common extensor tendon,
producing inflammation of the periosteum of the lateral
epicondyle

191
Q

paralysis of the muscles of the shoulder and arm supplied by the C5 and C6

spinal nerves occurs: deltoid, biceps, and brachialis. The usual clinical appearance

is an upper limb with an adducted shoul- der, medially rotated arm, and extended

elbow. The lateral aspect of the forearm also experiences some loss of sensation.

Chronic microtrauma to the superior trunk of the brachial plexus from carrying a heavy backpack can produce motor and sensory deficits in the distribution of the musculocutaneous and radial nerves.

A

Erb-Duchenne palsy

192
Q

Inferior brachial plexus injuries may occur when the upper limb is suddenly pulled superiorly—for example, when a person grasps something to break a fall (Fig. B6.12D), or a baby’s upper limb is pulled excessively during delivery (Fig. B6.12E). These events injure the inferior trunk of the brachial plexus (C8 and T1), and may avulse the roots of the spinal nerves from the spinal cord. The short muscles of the hand are affected, and a claw hand results (Fig. B6.12F).

A

Klumpke paralysis

193
Q

This nerve is susceptible to
injury with a fracture of the humerus. The result of this injury is
paralysis of the muscles of the posterior compartment
(extensors of the wrist and digits), and the inability of
the patient to extend the wrist

A

Radial nerve injury in upper arm: Associated

terms: “wrist drop”

194
Q

Lesions usually produce numbness and
tingling in the cutaneous distribution of the ulnar nerve.
Prolonged neuropathy may result in “clawing” of the
hand

What is this and where are the regions where it can occur?

A

Ulnar nerve injury at level of elbow: Associated
terms: “epicondyle fracture” “cubital tunnel
syndrome”

Can occur when medial epicondyle is fractured. Another common site is in the cubital tunnel, between the heads of the FCU muscle.

195
Q

What occurs when the median nerve

is severed in the forearm? Include name

A

Median nerve injury at level of elbow: Associated
terms: “ hand of benediction”

the first three digits have
impaired flexion of the PIP and DIP of digits, due to the
loss of innervation to the FDS and the lateral half of the
FDP.

The 2nd and 3rd digits also lose MP flexion due to
loss of innervation to the first two lumbricals.

The 4th
and 5th digits have weakness in PIP flexion, due to the
loss of the FDS, but flexion of the DIP of the 4th and 5th
digits is spared because the ulnar nerve innerves the FDP
to ulnar side of the hand. The resulting posture of the
hand is referred to as “hand of benediction

196
Q

Distal lesions of the ulnar nerve in the
forearm, or by compression in Guyon’s canal are called?

What occurs?

A

Ulnar nerve injury at the wrist: Associated terms “
Guyon tunnel syndrome” “claw hand” “intrinsic
minus hand”

can lead
to extensive sensory and motor loss to the hand.

loss of sensation on the ulnar side of the hand, and loss
of innervation to the intrinsic muscles of the hand.

With a low ulnar nerve lesion, the intrinsics are impaired, resulting in unopposed action of the extrinsics. Unopposed action of the long extensors results in hyperextension of the MP
joints and unopposed action of the long flexors results in
loss of extension of the PIP and DIP joints of the digits

197
Q

first clinical findings is impaired
sensation in the lateral three and a half digits.

Sensation is spared in the central palm it is supplied by
the ____________________, which
does not pass through the carpal tunnel.

Prolonged injury results in atrophy and of the muscles of the thenar eminence (what is this called?)

What is this overall?

A

palmar cutaneous branch of the median nerve

Simian hand

Carpal tunnel syndrome

198
Q

A common ligamentous injury of the hand
which results from sudden, forced radial deviation of the
MCP of the thumb. These injuries may be treated
conservatively by application of a functional splint,
however, in the case of severe injury, surgery may be
required to restore anatomic alignment
