Fractures Flashcards
Bankart fracture location
Shoulder
Humeral head compressed against labrum
Bankart fracture cause
Complication of anterior shoulder dislocation
Hill sachs lesion location
Shoulder
Cartilage surface of humerus in contact w/ rim of glenoid
Hill sachs lesion associated w/
Anterior glenohumeral dislocations
Most common shoulder dislocation
Anterior shoulder dislocation
Anterior shoulder dislocation associated w/
Greater tuberosity fracture
Bankart lesion
Hill sachs defect
Anterior shoulder dislocation presents w/
External rotation
Abduction
