Flashbang! Flashcards
Flashbang!
Hindfoot valgus that doesn’t correct with toe standing.
Think tarsal coalition.
Flashbang!
Pediatric conditions: Odontoid hypoplasia
Morquio’s syndrome and pseudoachondroplasia
FlashBang!
pediatric distal femur fracture
Complication = Limb length discrepancy or angular deformity
- results from physeal arrest
- occurs in 30-50% of displaced fractures
- prevent with
- anatomic physeal alignment (critical)
Flashbang
Bilateral sesamoiditis
Concern for:
Reiter’s disease
Psoriatic arthritis
Seronegative RA
Flashbang!
Looks like perthes but is simultaneous and bilateral.
MED
Flashbomb!
Markedly elevated CPK
Duchennes muscular dystrophy
Flashbang!
SED
Involve:
- ophthalmologist
- obtain yearly eye examination
- pulmonologist
- monitor for declining lung function
Flashbomb!
Pediatric Olecrenon Fracture
Association with OI
Flashbang!
Intravascular Injection of Bupivicaine
Can cause arrythmia and asystole
Give intravascular lipid emulsion immediatly.
FlashGong!
Pediatric patient: Distal tibial physeal fracture
Risk of unrecognized rotational deformity which can lead to increased external foot progression angle.
Flashbang!
Recon with PAGETS
Increased bleeding - need cell-saver
Increased risk for intra-op fracture
Flashbang!
JIA Workup
Examine C-Spine (AAS)
Opthamology consult (Uveitis)
Abdominal exam (splenomegaly)
Flashbang!
Pediatric patient with irriducible (closed) injury.
Usually interposed soft tissue
PERIOSTEUM
Flashbang
recurrent MT stress fractures
cavovarus foot
female athlete triad
Flashbang!
Patient has spondylodiskitis.
MRI the ENTIRE spine.
high incidence of skip lesions.
FlashNuke
Charcot Shoulder
Syrinx
Flashbang!
Surgically treated tibial eminence fracture.
Risk of arthrofibrosis is high.
Early ROM is critical.
Flashbang!
Nerve Injury post THR
- Examine patient
- Flex knee and extend hip
- Release compressive bandages
- Assess for hematoma - release in OR if present
- EMG at 3 months
- Involve nerve surgeon
- Foot Drop Splint
- Only 30% recover completely
Flashbang!
Larsens Syndrome
Cervical spine imaging to rule out cervical kyphosis
Flashbang!
OI patient with apnea, altered consciousness, ataxia, or myelopathy.
Basilar Invagination.
usually 3 or 4 decade of life.
Flashbang!
BBFA fracture treated with CR and cast.
(Involving long term prognosis.)
5-10% chance of re-fracture
FlashGrenade!
Hemihypertrophy
Association with malignant intra-abdominal tumours and genitourinary pathology
- malignant intra-abdominal tumors
- Wilm’s tumor (most common)
- perform serial abdominal ultrasounds (every 3 months) until age 7 to rule out Wilm’s tumor
- then physical exam every 6 months until skeletal maturity
- adrenal carcinoma
- hepatoblastoma
- Wilm’s tumor (most common)
- genitourinary abnormalities
- medullary sponge kidneys
- polycystic kidney
- inguinal hernias
Flashbang!
Ehlors Danlos w/u
Echocardiogram
(mitral valve and aortic root)
Flashbang!
Bilateral sesamoiditis
Concern for:
- reiter’s disease (urethritis, conjuctivitis / iritis, inflammatory bowel disease)
- psoriatic arthritis
- seronegative RA
