Lec 25: Principles of Ortho Surgery Flashcards
veterinarians should be aware of their limitations in surgery and ____ complicated cases when necessary
refer
bone transplanted from one animal to another of the same species is called a ___graft.
allo
procedures to enhance surgical exposure of a joint are called _____ osteotomies.
apophyseal
bone transplanted from one site to another in the SAME animal is called ___graft.
auto
when the insertion point of a tendon or ligament is fractured and distracted from the rest of the bone, this is called an ____ fracture.
avulsion
a span comminuted fracture is called
bridging plates
____ wire is an orthopedic wire placed around the circumference of bone to compress an oblique fracture.
cerclage
a _____ reduction is a fractured bone alignment performed without surgical exposure.
closed
_____ plates act to compress the fracture.
compression
the diaphysis or metaphysis of a bone is cut, realigned and stabilized until union occurs, this is called a _____ osteotomy, and it is an elective procedure.
corrective
____ ____ is an abnormal movement of the stifle joint elicited during physical examination, and is caused by the tibia sliding cranially in relationship to the femur.
cranial drawer
when we have a cranial drawer, this means that the ____ cruciate ligament is deficient in the stifle.
deficient
______ is a “grating feel” or sound when manipulating a fractured bone or arthritic joint.
crepitation
____ unions are fractures that heal more slowly than anticipated.
delayed
_____ bone union is when the bone formed without evidence of callus
direct
________ formation, is when the bone forms on the cartilaginous precursor.
endochondral
external _____ is when we fix a fracture with casts or splints.
coaptation
external _____ is when we fix a fracture with pins that penetrate the bone and skin, and are connected externally.
fixation
a _____ fracture is an incomplete fracture where the portion of the cortex is intact.
greenstick
this type of wire is placed through predrilled holes in the bone: _______-
hemicerclage wire or interfragmentary wire
the process of restoring fragment and limb alignment by distracting major bone segments by using the animal’s weight is called _____ reduction.
indirect
fracture fixation using internal implants to secure the bone is called _____ fixation
internal
________ pins are implants positioned in the medullary canal of long bones.
intramedullary pins
_______ bone formation is direct differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into osteoblasts, and the bone forms without a cartilagenous precursor.
intramembranous
_____ is the complete dislocation of a joint.
luxation
a ___union is a healed fracture where the anatomic bone alignment was not achieved or maintained during healing.
mal
a ______ plate supports a reconstructed fracture.
neutralization
a ___union is a fracture with an arrested repair process which requires surgical intervention to created an environment conductive to bone healing.
non
a ______ placement is a pin which is started at one end of the bone and driven into the fracture area, and then seated at the other end of the bone.
normograde
a ____ fracture is exposed to the external atmosphere.
open
an ____ (direct) reduction is a fracture repair that is performed after surgical approach to bone.
open
_____ maneuver is manipulation used to subluxate a dysplastic hip.
ortolani
an ______ is the removal of a segment of bone.
ostectomy
______ is an inflammatory condition of the bone and medullary canal.
osteomyelitis
_______ is a procedure where bone is cut into two segments
osteotomy
