Q

Congenital Torticollis:
* Occasionally, SCM injured when?
* What does it result in?
* What is a treatment option?

A
  • Occasionally, SCM injured when head is pulled excessively during a difficult birth, tearing its fibers (muscular torticollis).
  • Results in hematoma that may develop into a fibrous mass entrapping branch of the spinal accessory nerve (CN XI), thus denervating part of the SCM.
  • Surgical release of a partially fibrotic SCM from its distal attachments to the manubrium and clavicle may be necessary.

A
  • Most dislocations of the humeral head occur in the downward (inferior) direction (described clinically as anterior) (humeral head has descended anteriorly)
  • A hard blow to the humerus when the glenohumeral joint is fully abducted tilts the head of the humerus inferiorly onto the inferior weak part of the joint capsule.
  • This may tear the capsule and dislocate the joint.
  • The axillary nerve may be injured because of its close relation to the inferior part of the capsule of this joint
69

* Fracture of the distal part of the humerus, where?

A
  • Fractures of the surgical neck of the humerus are especially common in elderly people with osteoporosis
  • Fracture of the distal part of the humerus, near the supra- epicondylar ridges, is a supra- epicondylar (supracondylar) fracture.
72
Q

Because nerves are in contact with the humerus, they may be injured when the associated part of the humerus is fractured: (4)

A
  • surgical neck, axillary nerve
  • radial groove, radial nerve
  • distal humerus, median nerve
  • medial epicondyle, ulnar nerve
73
Q

What are the different type of fractures?

75
Q

Biceps tendon rupture:
* Rupture of the tendon of the long head of the biceps usually results from what?
* Normally, the tendon is torn from what?
* The rupture is commonly what?
* The detached muscle belly forms what?

A
  • Rupture of the tendon of the long head of the biceps usually results from wear and tear of an inflamed tendon (biceps tendinitis).
  • Normally, the tendon is torn from its attachment to the supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula.
  • The rupture is commonly dramatic and is associated with a snap or pop.
  • The detached muscle belly forms a ball near the center of the distal part of the anterior aspect of the arm (Popeye deformity)
81
Q

What is supporting the elbow on the laterally and medial side?

A
  • Lateral: radial collateral ligament and anular ligment of radius
  • Medial: ulnar collateral ligament (anterior band-cord like, posterior-fan like, obilque band)
82
Q

Avulsion of Medial Epicondyle:
* What is a result from?
* What does it result in?
* Anatomical basis of avulsion of the medial epicondyle is what?
* What is a complication of the abduction type of avulsion of the medial epicondyle?

A
  • Avulsion of medial epicondyle in children can result from a fall that causes severe abduction of the extended elbow.
  • Resulting traction on the ulnar collateral ligament pulls the medial epicondyle distally.
  • Anatomical basis of avulsion of the medial epicondyle is that the epiphysis for the medial epicondyle may not fuse with the distal end of the humerus until up to age 20 years.
  • Traction injury of the ulnar nerve is a complication of the abduction type of avulsion of the medial epicondyle.
83
Q

Proximal radioulnar joint. The head of the radius rotates in the “socket” formed by what?

A

anular ligament

87
Q

What is used for pronation?

A

Pronator teres and quadratus

88
Q

Nursemaid’s elbow:
* Happens how?
* The radial head then moves how?
* The proximal part of the torn ligament happen?
* The source of pain is what?
* What is the treatment?
* The tear in the anular ligament soon heals when ?

90
Q

Distal radius fractures:
* A direct injury usually produces what?
* Because the shafts of these bones are firmly bound together by the interosseous membrane, a fracture of one bone is what?

A
  • Fractures of both the ulna and radius are the result of severe injury.
  • A direct injury usually produces transverse fractures at the same level, often in the middle third of the bones.
  • Because the shafts of these bones are firmly bound together by the interosseous membrane, a fracture of one bone is likely to be associated with dislocation of the nearest joint.
91
Q

What is the difference of colles and smith fracture?

94
Q

What are the muscles of the posterior forearm (superifical and deep layer)?

A
  • Superifical layer: Brachioradialis, externsor carpi radialis longus, extensor carpi radialis brevis, extensor digitorum, externsor digiti minimi and externsor carpi ulnaris

Q

De Quervain Tenosynovitis (radial styloid tenosynovitis)
* Caused how?
* Causes what?
* Local tenderness is felt over?

101
Q

Synovial/ganglion cyst:
* Sometimes, a nontender cystic swelling appears where?
* The thin-walled cyst contains what?
* These synovial cysts are where?
* What is a common site for such a cyst?
* A cystic swelling of the common flexor synovial sheath on the anterior aspect of the wrist can enlarge enough to produce what?

105
Q

What are the carpel tunnel contents?

106
Q
  • What is skier’s thumb?
  • This injurt results from what?
  • What happens in severe injuries?
A
  • Skier’s thumb (historically, “gamekeeper’s thumb”) refers to the rupture or chronic laxity of the collateral ligaments of the 1st metacarpophalangeal joint.
  • The injury results from hyperabduction of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb, which occurs when the thumb is held by a ski pole while the rest of the hand hits the ground or enters the snow.
  • In severe injuries, the head of the metacarpal has an avulsion fracture.
107
Q

Mallet or Baseball Finger:
* How does this happen
* What is an example?
* These actions avulse the attachment of what?
* What is the result?

A
  • Distal interphalangeal joint suddenly being forced into extreme flexion (hyperflexion) when the tendon is attempting to extend the distal phalanx
  • For example, when a baseball is miscaught (hyperflexing it) or the finger is jammed into a base pad.
  • These actions avulse the attachment of the tendon from the base of the distal phalanx.
  • As a result, the person is unable to extend the distal interphalangeal joint
