walking cast/wearing stout boot for 4-6wks

24
Q

management of proximal diaphysis of 5th MT (Jones #)
displaced in active =
non union =
stable =

A

displaced # in active = fixate with one screw
non union = bone grafting and fixation
stable = moon boot

25
Q

1st MT # management

A

fixation

26
Q

management of lesser MT #

A

minimal displacement = treated conservatively with cast

multiple displaced #s = stabilised with k wires

27
Q

management of 2nd MT #

A

cast until pain subsides

28
Q

management of extra art toe #

A

protect in stout boot

open = debride and stabilise with wires

29
Q

management of toe dislocations

A

closed reduction and either neighbour strapping or wiring

30
Q

management of intra art # of base of proximal phalanx of hallux

A

reduction and fixation

if open = debridement and stabilise with wires

31
Q

management of minimally displaced prox humerus #

A

conservative with sling

32
Q

management of persistently displaced prox humerus # =

A

internally fixate

33
Q

management of head splitting # or 3/4 part fracture of proximal humerus

A

arthroplasty considered

34
Q

most common pattern of fracture of proximal humerus

A

surgical neck # with medial displacement of humeral shaft due to pectoralis major pull

35
Q

s dancers get :

A

MT avulsion #

36

`wrist drop and loss of sensation in 1st dorsal web space is due to

A

radial nerve damage

37
Q

management of humeral shaft #

A

functional humeral brace to compress and stabilise
polytrauma = int fix wit hIM nail, plate or screw
non union = plating and bone graft

38
Q

management of intra art distal humerus #

A

ORIF with anatomical reduction and rigid fixation

elbow replacement considered in highly comminuted

39
Q

management of olecranon #

A

ORIF

simple transverse avulsion # = fixed with tension band wiring

40
Q

management of radial head and neck #s

A

min displaced marginal # = conservative
Sx if displaced fragment blocks extension
comminuted = excise +/- replacement

41
Q

management of epicondyle #

A

fixed screw

42
Q
