Q

Hill-Sachs fracture

A

Impacted posterior humeral head occurring DURING anterior shoulder fracture

17
Q

Sling immobilization after proximal humeral fractures

  • one or two part break
  • complex breaks
A

1-3 weeks then Passive movements

4-6 weeks unless has TSA

18
Q

Bone healing phases

A

Inflammatory, repair, remodeling

19
Q

Primary versus secondary healing

A

Primary occurs by stabilization of bone fragments thereby eliminating the callus formation
Secondary healing occurs in the body- by the three stages

20
Q

Most common wrist fracture

A

Colles - dorsal displacement

Usually heals with cast

21
Q

Colles occurs most in which population

A

Post menopausal women with osteoporosis

22
Q

Smiths is usually stable or unstable?

A

Unstable requiring internal fixation

23
Q

Salter Harris grades 3-5

A

Indicates fracture involves growth plate and epiphysis (ossification center)

24
Q

Salter Harris grade 2

A

Involves growth plate (metaphysis) but not the ossification center (epiphysis)

25
Q

Seymour fracture

A

Juxtaepiphyseal fracture of the distal phalanx (children)

Can mimic mallet finger

26
Q

Pilon fracture

A

Comminuted intra articular fx of the base of the middle phalanx

Can be treated with dynamic traction

27
Q

Ligamentotaxis

A

Periosteum sleeve positions and compresses the articular surfaces when distraction or tension is applied

28
Q

Jahss maneuver

A

Closed reduction by grabbing the proximal phalanx and pulling up while in 90 flexion at mcp

Not used in the little finger

29
Q

Humpback deformity

A

Scaphoid fx with nonunion (SNAC) with significant flexion at the nonunion site

30
Q

Focal hand dystonia

A

Abnormal posturing of the hand because of antagonist agonist co-contractions

Idiopathic and multifactorial
