Foot Ankle/Hand 12OCT Flashcards
What drives the Cavovarus foot?
The plantarflexion of first ray- PL mainly (antagonists by weak TA)
- Coleman blcok hindfoot corects then you can correct with forefoot osteotomy
- NO correct- then need hindfoot osteotomy
Treatment for cavovarus foot
- calc- lateral clsoing wedge- no flexible
- PL to PB transfer
- Lengthening procedure
- Plantar flacia release
- dorsiflexion osteotomy
- Overload of lateral forefoot- stress fractures
Rigid flatfoot (PTTI) will need what
ARTHRODESIS- Triple
Orthosis for fixed versus NON fixed deformities:
For FIXED you simply support and accommodate
for mobile yo counteract
With corrected hindfoot in PTTI and forefoot varus (supintation) will need what?
Will need plantarflexion of the first ray some how (arthrodesis or osteoetomy (Cotton))
What transfer is used in conjunction with flatfoot surgery?
FDL transfer
DMAA normal shoulder be?
<8d
- IF increase DMAA the need osteotomy distally is joint congruent
- IF incrase DMAA and INCONGRUENT- needs lateral release, medial capsulorraphy
If you see OVERPRONATION on Hallux Valgus then
you know you have to do soft tissue release (laterally)
What is deformity of talar neck non-union or mal union with medial compression screws?
VARUS malunion
- will lose EVERSION
Camper Chiasm is where
When FDP goes thorugh FDS slips at level of PIP
How many strands do you need to have active motion protocol in flexor tendon repair
- need at least 4
Where is A2 and A4 pulleys?
A2- Proximal proximal phalanx
A4- middle middle phalanx
When is tendon repair the weakest?
between 2-3 weeks( goes down before it goes up), dorsal placement is stronger, usually rupture at knots
LeDDY type of flexor tendon injury?
type 1- tendon to palm- disrupts the blood supply, have to get to it soon.
Type 2- most common- FDP to campers chiasm- don’t have to be as urgent
Proximal Pole of scaphoid and displaced?
DORSAL approach and ORIF (even if 1mm displaced)
ORIF scaphoid indications:
- proximal pole
- any displacement
- humpback deformity
- intrascaphoid angle greater than 35
What is position of wrist with scaphoid fracture occurs?
extension an radial deviation
- the proximal POLE has greatest risk for AVN
What is the scaphoid view?
PA, 30d extension, 20d ulnar deviation
What is the best study to look for union of scaphoid/
CT
Get an MR with
Non op scaphoid?
- Non-displaced waist
- Distal poles
Proximal pole non-union after some time treatment in young person:
- Need new vascular supply
- free vascularized medial femoral condyle graft
MFC graft
- based on the descending genicular artery
- used for proximal pole non-union or non-union of scaphoid with AVN
What is most sensitive test for carpal tunnel?
Durkens compression test
Good prognostic factors for CTR?
- nighttime symptoms,
- relief with steroid injections
What is associated with poor prognosis after CTR?
EMG changes pre-op NCV - Sensory only- mild - sensory and otor- modA ANY EMG changes means CTR should be first line of treatment
NCV : increased latencies
DSL: >3.5
DML >4.3
any EMG changes makes it sever (fibrillations
Volar Middle PHalanx with NO tenosynovian flap?
Cross finger flap (use reverse cross finger when the exposed portion is DORSAL ratehr than volar)
- can also do reverse cross finger flap
(Moberg is a volar advancedment flap for thumb defects?
What does it mean when they report NO tenosynovium over tendons when asking about flaps
Means you CANNOT use skin graft to cover
Distal figner tip amps?
Transverse: (VY advancement, Moberg(thumb))
Dorsal Oblique: (VY OR bone shortening with volar flap
Volar Oblique: NO VY, so see cross finger flap, thenar flap, island flaps
What is a complication of a thenar flap?
Stiffness and adhesions
What about dorsal proximal thumb flap used to cover?
1st dorsal metacarpal arter flap
FDMA
A 60d Zplasty give you how much length?
75%
45d give you 50%
Absolute indications for replant:
- children
- thumb
- multiple metacarpals (fingers)
- wrist or proximal
Contraindications for replant?
- crush a avulsion
- segemental
- prolong ischemia time (
Warm ischemia time
PROXIMAL to carpus- 6 hours
Cold is 12 hours
Distal to carpus ischemia time:
12 hours of warm
24 hours of cold
Orders of Structures for replant
- Bone
- Extensors
- flexors
- Artery
- Vein
- Nerve
- SKin
Leeaches questions?
- Huiridin- anticoagulant
- aueroguinosa hydrophillis
- cipro and bactrim
What size gap do you have to nerve graft?
For greater thatn 2.5cm nerve defets
- if 7mm to 2.5 cm you can use collagen conduits or other grafts, greaterter athatn 2.5 need nerve graft
Which is most favoral nerve to repair in UE?
Radial» median»»ulnar is bad
What structure is vilated in dorsal PIP dislocation?
volar plate
- need to splint in flexion to approimate volar plate, NOT let swan neck occur
PIP fractrue dislocaiton, when to ORIF?
if greater than 40% of join invovled
With volar PIP dislocation splinting after reduction?
- central slip is injury, need to splint in extension after reduction
- if you Dont splint right you get boutinerres
Elsons test?
central slip injruy detection
- PIP at 90 degrees with extension the DIP will hyper extend via the lateral bands- central slip njry dur to lanteral bands falling forward
Hook of Hamate Fx: best view?
carpal tunnel view
- chornic or delayed presenation: excision of HofH
- parasthesia to small and ring
- CT if not seen on plain films
Ulanr nerve compression
- arcade of struthers
- Medial intermuscule septum
ME - Cubital tunne
- FCU apaneurosis
