17
Q

it is one of the most frequently fractured bones in the body

A

Fractures of the Clavicle

18
Q

fractures normally occur near the area of the first curvature, which is the weakest part of the bone

A

Fractures of the Clavicle

19
Q

Were do fractures normally occur on the clavicle?

A

Fist lateral third of the bone near the area of the first curvature, which is the weakest part of the bone.

20
Q

Where do fractures normally occur on the clavicle

A

The first curvature, which is he weakest pert of the bone.

21
Q

What type of fractures are the majority of clavicle fractures.

A

non or minimally displaced and the medial fragment of the bone is usually elevated

22
Q

What are the fractures usually a result of ?

A

Indirect forces on the shoulder that are greater than the strength of the bone.

23
Q

What is a risk with clavicle fracture

A

if it is significant enough, it could compromise the neurovascular structures in the area or even puncture a lung.

24
Q

What is a problem with broad shoulder infants

A

Fracture of the clavicle from the birthing process, however the bones usually heal rather quickly with no apparent problems .

25
Q

What is the hereditary condition in which ossification of the clavicle is defective ?

A

Cleidocranial dysostosis

26
Q

What is the condition where the clavicle is missing or abnormally formed ?

A

Cleidocranial dysostosis

27
Q

Cleidocranial dysostosis is usually ___in most patients.

A

Bilateral

28
Q

The scapular is a large, triangle___ Bone Found on the ____ aspect of the thoracic cage.

A

Flat; posterior

29
Q

What ribs are the scapula found between?

A

2nd and 7th rib

30
Q

What vertebrae are the scapula found between ?

A

T1 and T7

31
Q

The bone of the scapula articulate with the acromial end of the clavicle to form _______ joint and the head of the humerus to form the ____ joint

A

Acromioclavicular; shoulder joint.

32
Q

How many primary and secondary ossification centers are in the scapular

A

1 Primary and 6 Secondary (7 in total)

33
Q

Where does the primary center of the scapula develop ?

A

Body of the bone ( Fossa and spine)

34
Q

When does the primary center of the scapula develop

A

Around the 8th week of development.

35
Q

Where does the 6 secondary ossification centers of the scapula develop ?

A

2 for the acromion process, 2 for the coracoid process, and 1 each for the medial border and inferior angle.

36
Q

What runs from the acromion process of the scapula to the distal end of the humerus

A

Clinical arm.

37
Q

When does the scapula complete ossification ?

A

between 15 and 18 years.

38
Q

Why do most scapula fractures require minimal treatment ?

A

The muscle which cover the bone act as a natural splints.

39
Q

What is important to examine after a scapula fracture ?

A

The underlying chest wall and lungs for injury

40
Q

What is the most commonly fractures part of the scapula

A

Acromion process

41
Q

What developmental anomaly is an undecided scapula brought about by attachment to cervical vertebrae by either bone, cartilage or fibrous attachment.

A

Sprenger’s deformity.

42
Q

What developmental anomaly is the failure of the acromion process to fuse to the rest of the bones.

A

Os Acromidae
