Q

Radial nerve is out

What are the transfers to restore function

A

Wrist extension: Pronator teres -> ECRB (most consistent in testing)

Overall no difference except for . . .

Op pts with > grip strength and better xrays

88
Q

Assoc injury with the below MOA:

  • wrist ext + radial deviation
  • wrist ext + ulnar deviation
A

radial -> scaphoid injury

ulnar -> TFCC

89

complication of hammate hook excise

A

ulnar n injury

15% grip strength b’c pulley for 4/5 FDP disrupted

90
Q

fite bite management

A

gotta take to OR to washout the joint

91
Q

2 most important thumb ligaments

A

Volar oblique -> fx frag that remains stable in bennet fx

92
Q

Treatment for chronic Gamekeep with arthritis

A

fusion

93
Q

DRUJ dislocation

  • dorsal
  • palmar
A

splint

  • dorsal -> supination
  • palmar -> pronation
94
Q

how to assess for ulnar impaction on xray

A

True PA xray (0 degree PA)

- any rotation causes movement of ulna
