1. Wilhelm Roentgen discovered x-rays in 1895, allowing for better diagnosis and classification of wrist fractures. Scaphoid fractures are the most common carpal bone fractures, accounting for 70% of carpal fractures.
2. Treatment options depend on the specific bone fractured and degree of displacement. Nondisplaced fractures are usually treated conservatively with casting while displaced fractures often require surgical fixation using methods like K-wire fixation.
3. Complications can include nonunion, pain, and arthritis. However, advances in surgical techniques and hardware have reduced morbidity and allowed for faster rehabilitation, important considerations for athlete patients.
Posterolateral corner injuries of knee joint Samir Dwidmuthe
Missed posterolateral corner injuries of knee joint is a common cause for failure of ACL and PCL reconstruction only next to malpositioned tunnels.
Isolated PLC injuries are uncommon, making up <2% of all acute knee ligamentous injuries. Covey JBJS 2001
Incidence of PLC injuries associated with concomitant ACL and PCL disruptions are much more common (43% to 80%). Ranawat JAAOS 2008
A recent (MRI) analysis of surgical tibialplateau fractures demonstrated an incidence of PLC injuries in 68% of cases. Gardner JOT 2005
Take home message
PLC injuries to be ruled out in every case of ACL& PCL rupture.
Neurovascular integrity to be checked in every case.
Grade I & II can be managed conservatively.
Grade III Acute- Repair.
Grade III Chronic- Anatomic PLC recon.
Beware of varus knee alignment.

The exact anatomy of the bones and joints is of great importance to the clinician when examining the limbs and to the surgeon when operating on the bones and joints.
To understand deformities of the extremities, it is important to first understand and establish the parameters and limits of normal alignment.
Each long bone has a mechanical and an anatomic axis
both frontal and sagittal planes axis lines are applicable to any longitudinal projection of a bone.
The corresponding radiographic projections are the anteroposterior (AP) and lateral (LAT) views, respectively.
shoulder instability is quite common because shoulder have highest range of motion but at the cost of stability. here discussing anatomy around the shoulder & treatment of shoulder instability

The upper limb skeleton, also known as the appendicular skeleton, consists of the bones of the arms and hands. It plays a crucial role in supporting and facilitating a wide range of movements.
Understanding the anatomy of the upper limb skeleton is essential for healthcare professionals involved in orthopedics, physical therapy, and related fields. It provides the foundation for diagnosing and treating injuries, fractures, and other conditions affecting the upper limb.

The upper limb consists of various joints that enable movement and provide flexibility. These joints can be classified into different types based on their structure and function.
Understanding the anatomy and function of these joints is crucial for assessing and managing conditions related to the upper limb, as well as for rehabilitation and therapeutic interventions. Joint injuries, arthritis, and other disorders may affect the functionality of these joints, and appropriate medical care may be necessary for optimal outcomes.
