UE ORTHO Flashcards
- Traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation frequently tears the anterior inferior glenohumeral joint capsule (e.g., the middle glenohumeral ligament and/or anterior band of the inferior glenohumeral ligament [IGHL]) and avulses the anterior inferior glenoid labrum with or without some underlying bone from the glenoid rim. The latter of these two entities is frequently referred to as a:
a. Circumflex nerve injury
b. Hill-sach’s defect
c. Bankart lesion
d. Reverse bankart lesion
e. Reverse Hill-Sachs lesion
c. Bankart lesion
Code: bankAI
Anterior inferior glenoid labrum
A: Axillary nerve
D: Posteroinferior
E: Compression fx of anteromedial of humeral head
- Acute anterior glenohumeral joint dislocations are also frequently associated with a compression fracture of the posterolateral aspect of the humeral head, referred to as:
a. Circumflex nerve injury
b. Hillsach’s defect
c. Bankart lesion

- Which of the following describes SLAP lesion type II?
a. This type involves a vertical tear of the labrum, similar to the bucket-handle tear of the knee meniscus, although the remaining portions of the labrum and biceps are intact.
b. This type involves an extension of the buckethandle tear into the biceps tendon, with portions of the labral flap and biceps tendon displaceable into the G-H joint.
c. This type involves a pathologic detachment of the labrum and biceps tendon anchor, resulting in a loss of the stabilizing effect of the labrum and the biceps.
d. This type involves a fraying and degeneration of the edge of the superior labrum. The patient loses the ability to horizontally abduct or externally rotate with the forearm pronated without pain.
c. This type involves a pathologic detachment of the labrum and biceps tendon anchor, resulting in a loss of the stabilizing effect of the labrum and the biceps.

- Which of the following describes Dupuytren’s contracture?
I. The hallmark of clinical evaluation is the palpable nodules and cords in the palmar fascia, most notably in the small finger.

III. It usually begins insidiously as small imperceptible nodules in the area of the palmar crease. It can progress to thick cords that form along the fascia tension lines of the palm.
IV. The underlying tendons, synovial sheaths, and skin layers are not affected.
V. The pathophysiology of Dupuytren’s is not fully understood; there is, however, a higher incidence in alcoholic, diabetic, and epileptic patients, and there is thought to be a correlation with tobacco use.
