PANCE - MSK review Flashcards
MC type of shoulder dislocation
anterior
anterior shoulder dislocation presentation
ABducted, externally rotated, and extended arm
assoc injuries of ANTERIOR shoulder dislocation
axillary nerve injury***
- MOST IMPORTANT
- loss of sensation in shoulder badge distribution
- access for axillary nerve dysfxn before AND after reduction
hill-sachs lesion
- cortical depression in humeral head due to glenoid rim
bankart lesion
- injury of the anterior (inferior) glenoid labrum
dx of anterior shoulder dislocation
XR of shoulder
tx of anterior shoulder dislocation
reduce and immobilize w sling
access for axillary nerve dysfunction before and after reduction!
POSTERIOR shoulder dislocation presentation
ADDucted and internally rotated
SITS muscles
Supraspinatus
Infraspinatus
Teres MINOR
Subscapularis
rotator cuff PE test
empty can test (AKA job’s test)
- gold standard bc isolates the supraspinatus
neer test
hawkings test
adhesive capsulitis presentation
reduced passive AND active ROM
adhesive capsulitis RF
DM
hypothyroidism
dx of adhesive capsulitis
clinical dx
- confirmed w > 50% reduction in BOTH passive and active ROM in > 2 planes
*esp external rotation and ABduction
tx of adhesive capsulitis
gentle ROM exercises*
supracondylar humerus fracture
fracture of distal humerus
MC in children 2-7 y/o
MC type of pediatric elbow fx
supracondylar humerus fracture mechanism of injury
FOOSH w elbow hyperextended
complications of a supracondylar humerus fracture
volkmann ischemic contracture
- claw like deformity –> fixed flexion of hand, fingers, & wrist
dx of supracondylar humerus fracture
XR
- posterior fat pad sign
- are sometimes the ONLY sign of a radial head fx
