The distal humerus is flattened and expanded bony structure
It is composed of lateral and medial columns with the trochlea situated between these columns.
The location of the trochlea is central rather than medial
Formed by Medial SCR + M/Epicondyle
The distal end has 450 angulation with humeral shaft
M/ Epicondyle gives attachment for MCL & Common Flexor Origin
The MCL originates from the undersurface of the medial epicondyle where it is vulnerable to excessive dissection
Ulnar nerve
Formed by Lateral SCR and L/Epicondyle and Capitulum
Distal end has 200 with humeral shaft
L/ epicondyle gives attachment for LCL & common extensor origin
Its posterior surface is non articular and can be used as a site for a plate fixation
The lateral column curves anteriorly
Placement of a straight plate on the posterolateral surface of the humerus risks straightening of distal humerus.
The medial column including the medial epicondyle is in line with the humeral shaft.
It forms the center of the triangle
It has 30 - 80 – external rotation & 250 anterior divergent with the shaft
It forms a 40 - 80 degree valgus direction

Anterior-posterior view
lateral View
Traction View – This can help to define articular fragments and aid in pre-operative classification of the fracture.
NCCT – Elbow
Articular surfaces
Position of the fracture fragments
useful for identifying impacted fracture fragments that make reduction challenging
Olecranon Osteotomy Approach – 52-57%
Triceps sparing VS Olecranon osteotomy approach
The lateral column was often the first to fail as a result of excessive varus forces acting on the elbow during normal activities of daily living. Small anterior-posterior diameter
Smaller diameter of the humerus, permitting only one or two short screws for fixation.
Interruption of blood supply to the lateral column
blood supply to the lateral column is also derived from posterior segmental vessels. Sagittal plane plating has less risk of injuring these structures, which may improve the chances of union
Deformity: It’s the position of a limb/Joint, from which it cannot be brought back to its normal anatomical position.

Intertrochanteric fractures and its management with DHS or PFN or Arthroplasty
SUMMARY
We should be able to minimize the morbidity associated with an intertrochanteric fracture by:
• Recognizing the fracture pattern.
• Choosing the appropriate fixation device.
• Performing accurate reduction.
• Ideal implant placement.
• Being conscious of implant COSTS.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Fracture coronoid process of ulna
1. Fracture coronoid process of ulna
Dr. Ashiqur Rahman
Resident Orthopedics

2. Coronoid fractures occur in 10% to 15% of elbow dislocations.
Classified into three types, as described by Regan and Morrey:
1.Type I:
-fracture of the intraarticular tip of the coronoid (no long-term
instability);
2. Type II:
- fracture involving half or less of the coronoid (may significantly
affect ulnohumeral stability);
3. Type III:
-fracture involving more than half of the coronoid process (often
with posterior instability)
3.
4. - Because a coronoid fracture fragment may appear small on a
lateral radiograph or may be confused with a radial fracture, CT
is recommended when a coronoid fracture is suspected.
- Displaced coronoid fractures should be reduced and stabilized
with fixation.
- Careful assessment is mandatory to ensure that the coronoid
fracture is not part of a more serious injury (‘terrible triad’).
5. Treatment
- Sutures can be used for fixation of small coronoid fracture
fragments
- And lag screws can be used for larger fragments
- A distinct type of coronoid fracture, fracture of the antero-
medial facet occurs from a varus force to the elbow and, if left
untreated, can result in posteromedial rotary instability.
- Repair of the lateral collateral ligament and ORIF of the
coronoid are recommended.
