The document describes several classification systems for femoral fractures:
1. The Singh Index grades femoral head osteoporosis on a scale of 1-6 based on the visibility and integrity of trabecular groups in the proximal femur on radiographs. Grades 3 and below indicate definite osteoporosis.
2. Boyd and Griffin classify intertrochanteric femoral fractures into 5 types based on the trabecular structure of the proximal femur which provides strength.
3. The primary blood supply to the femoral head comes from the medial femoral circumflex artery, with minor contributions from cervical arteries and the foveal artery.
This document provides an overview of Monteggia fracture dislocations, beginning with definitions, history, epidemiology, classification, mechanisms of injury, clinical features, management, complications, and recent updates. Monteggia fractures, first described in 1814, constitute 1-2% of forearm fractures. Bado's 1958 classification divides them into four types based on the direction of radial head dislocation and location of the ulna fracture. Type I is the most common, involving anterior radial head dislocation and ulna fracture. Nonoperative treatment typically involves closed reduction and casting, while surgery is indicated for failed reductions. Complications can include nerve injuries, ossification, and compartment syndrome.
This document provides information on fractures of the radius and ulna shaft. It discusses the anatomy of the forearm bones and the deforming forces that can occur with certain fracture locations. Types of fractures covered include isolated radius or ulna shaft fractures, both bone fractures, Monteggia fractures, Galeazzi fractures, and reverse Galeazzi fractures. Treatment options including nonoperative management with casting or operative management with open reduction and internal fixation are described. Postoperative rehabilitation and potential complications are also summarized.
This document discusses tibial pilon fractures, which involve fractures of the distal tibial articular surface. Key points include:
1) The term "tibial pilon" was first used in 1911 to describe the distal tibia resembling a pestle. Pilon fractures account for 7-10% of tibial fractures and usually result from high-energy mechanisms.
2) Classification systems include the Rüedi-Allgöwer system (based on articular displacement/comminution) and the AO/OTA system (which further subdivides based on extra-articular involvement and comminution).
3) Treatment involves restoring tibial alignment, stabilizing the fracture to facilitate union,
1) Fractures of the humeral shaft can result from a fall on an outstretched hand or direct blow to the arm.
2) Treatment involves either hanging casts or surgery depending on the severity of the fracture and any complications.
3) Complications can include injury to the radial nerve and non-union of the bone fragments, so careful assessment of nerve function is important both before and after treatment.
Bennett's fracture is a common intra-articular fracture of the base of the thumb metacarpal bone that extends into the carpometacarpal joint. It is usually caused by an axial force on a partially flexed thumb. Left untreated, it can lead to long-term pain, weakness, arthritis, and diminished hand function. While sometimes minimally displaced fractures can be treated non-surgically, surgical intervention like closed reduction or open reduction is often needed to ensure proper healing and restore thumb function. Long-term outcomes often include weakness and arthritis, with severity depending on how well the fracture was reduced.
Loose bodies are fragments of bone or cartilage that float freely in the joint space, causing symptoms like knee pain, swelling, and locking. They are classified as stable or unstable. Individuals with joint diseases like arthritis are more at risk, as are athletes. Loose bodies are diagnosed by x-ray, CT, MRI or arthrography. Treatment options include NSAIDs, arthroscopic removal of large loose bodies, or open surgery. The focus of rehabilitation is controlling pain and restoring function through gait training and avoiding prolonged immobilization.

The document summarizes information about clavicle fractures, including their epidemiology, anatomy, mechanisms of injury, classification systems, treatment options, and evidence for management approaches. Specifically, it finds that:
1) Clavicle fractures are among the most common fractures and midshaft fractures account for 69-80% of cases.
2) They are often caused by a direct blow to the shoulder and result in characteristic deformities from surrounding muscle and ligament forces.
3) Nonoperative treatment is usually indicated for nondisplaced fractures but recent evidence shows displaced or shortened fractures have higher risks of poor outcomes like pain, weakness and nonunion.
Distal radius fractures account for up to 20% of emergency department fractures. They typically result from a fall on an outstretched hand. Diagnosis involves history of injury mechanism and physical exam finding of wrist deformity and pain with movement. Classification systems help understand fracture patterns and challenges. Treatment depends on factors like stability, alignment, comminution and patient age/demands. Options include closed reduction with casting, percutaneous pinning, external fixation, plating, and open reduction with internal fixation. Complications can include arthritis, loss of motion, nerve issues, contractures and nonunion.
Three column fixation for complex PROXIMAL TIBIA FRACTURESLokesh Sharoff
This study introduces a "three-column fixation" concept for treating complex tibial plateau fractures (Schatzker Types V and VI) based on computed tomography scans. The study evaluates clinical outcomes in 29 patients treated with this column-specific fixation technique. At 2-year follow up, patients had good functional outcomes with SF-36, HSS, and lower extremity measure scores averaging 89, 90, and 87 respectively. Radiographic measurements also showed well-maintained alignment without significant malreduction. The study concludes that three-column fixation is an effective and safe method for multiplanar complex tibial plateau fractures.
This document discusses fractures of the distal radius, including Colles' fractures (transverse fractures with dorsal displacement), Smith's fractures (volar displacement), and Barton's fractures (dorsal or volar rim avulsions). Treatment depends on the fracture type and degree of displacement/fragmentation. Displaced fractures may be reduced manually or surgically with K-wires, plates, or external fixation. Outcomes depend on restoring length, alignment, and congruity while allowing early motion. Complications include malunion, nonunion, instability, and arthritis.
Fractures of the upper extremity are described, including the clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna, carpals and metacarpals. Treatment depends on the specific bone and location of the fracture. Most common fractures like clavicle and humerus can be treated conservatively with slings or plates/screws for displaced fractures. More complex fractures involving joints often require open reduction and internal fixation to restore anatomy. Complications include nonunion, malunion, nerve palsies and joint stiffness.
Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures seen in orthopaedic trauma. They typically occur due to falls in older populations and can be classified based on the degree of articular involvement and instability. Treatment depends on fracture pattern but generally involves closed reduction and casting for non-displaced fractures, while more displaced or unstable fractures may require operative fixation to restore anatomy and maximize function. Rehabilitation focuses on early range of motion exercises and recovery of grip strength.
The document discusses the anatomy and classification of forearm fractures. It describes the radius and ulna bones of the forearm and their articulations. Forearm fractures can be classified as proximal, middle, or distal, and can affect one or both bones. Common types include radial shaft fractures, Galeazzi fractures, and Monteggia's fractures. Assessment involves neurovascular and range of motion exams. Treatment depends on the fracture type but may include immobilization, closed reduction, open reduction and internal fixation, or external fixation.
This document discusses different types of bone plates and screws used for internal fixation of fractures. It describes the principles of plates, including dynamic compression plates (DCP), locking compression plates (LCP), and buttress, tension band and neutralization plates. It provides details on plate design evolution, properties, applications and surgical principles. Screw features and types including heads, shafts, threads and tips are also outlined. Compression techniques and factors to consider for number of screws and plate removal timing are summarized.
Galeazzi fracture-dislocation is a fracture of the distal or middle third of the radius shaft combined with dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint. It most often occurs in males due to indirect trauma from a fall on an outstretched hand with rotation. Radiographs show the radial fracture and dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint. Treatment involves open reduction and internal fixation of the radial fracture with a plate while restoring length and stability of the distal radioulnar joint. The forearm is then immobilized in supination for 4-6 weeks to heal.
Cubitus varus, or gunstock deformity, is caused by malunion of supracondylar fractures and results in the forearm being deviated inward at the elbow with loss of the carrying angle. It is a triplanar deformity involving varus, hyperextension, and internal rotation. Treatment options include observation for young children, hemiepiphysiodesis to alter growth, and corrective osteotomy. The lateral closing wedge osteotomy is commonly used to safely correct the varus deformity through removal of a lateral wedge. Other techniques include medial opening wedge, oblique, dome, and step-cut osteotomies. Postoperative management focuses on immobilizing the arm in extension
The principles of fracture fixation aim to ensure fractures heal properly and patients return to normal function. They include:
1) Restoring anatomical relationships through fracture reduction to realign displaced bone fragments.
2) Providing absolute or relative stability through fixation methods like plates or external fixators to hold the reduction.
3) Preserving blood supply by minimizing soft tissue and bone trauma during reduction and fixation to support healing.
4) Allowing early and safe mobilization through exercise to promote healing and prevent complications while the fracture mends.
This document discusses injuries of the forearm, specifically Colles' and Smith's fractures. Colles' fracture involves a break just above the wrist and sometimes dislocation of the inferior radioulnar joint. It most commonly occurs in elderly women after falls. Smith's fracture is a reverse of Colles' fracture, with the distal radius displaced forwards. Both fractures are usually treated initially with closed reduction and immobilization in a cast, while operative fixation may be used for unstable or complicated cases. Complications can include malunion, nerve damage, and nonunion if not properly treated.
Smith fractures are fractures of the distal radius where the distal fragment is displaced anteriorly, opposite to a Colles' fracture. They account for less than 3% of radius fractures and occur most commonly in young males and elderly females. Smith fractures can be extra-articular, intra-articular, or a fracture-dislocation. Patients present with wrist injury and a 'garden spade' deformity rather than the 'dinner fork' deformity of a Colles' fracture. X-rays show the distal fragment displaced anteriorly. Treatment involves closed reduction, casting, and possible fixation for unstable fractures.
Osteotomy around the elbow is commonly performed to correct cubitus varus and cubitus valgus deformities. For cubitus varus, the most common cause is a malunited supracondylar fracture. Surgical options include lateral closing wedge osteotomy, oblique osteotomy with derotation, and medial opening wedge osteotomy with bone grafting. For cubitus valgus, causes include nonunion of a lateral condyle fracture. Surgical options are a closing wedge medial osteotomy or opening wedge lateral osteotomy. Complications of elbow osteotomy can include stiffness, persistent deformity, myositis ossificans, loss of fixation, and neurovascular injury.
This document provides information on Monteggia fracture-dislocations, including:
- Classification into 4 main types based on the direction of the ulnar fracture and radial dislocation. Type 1 is the most common.
- Description of injury mechanisms, radiographic evaluation, treatment approaches including closed or open reduction of fractures and dislocations, and casting.
- Complications like neglected fractures and nerve injuries. Variations like Monteggia equivalents and revisions to the classification system are also discussed. Surgical techniques for addressing chronic cases, like annular ligament reconstruction and ulnar osteotomies, are covered.
Kienbock disease is avascular necrosis of the lunate bone in the wrist that results from disrupted blood flow. It progresses through stages from isolated lunate involvement to fragmentation and collapse. Treatment aims to decompress and revascularize the lunate early on through osteotomies or tendon transfers, while later stages involve procedures like proximal row carpectomy or fusion to stabilize the wrist joint and prevent further degeneration. However, there is no single treatment that reliably achieves pain relief and preservation of function as the disease progresses.
Dr. Ankur Mittal presented on diagnostic tests and imaging for Achilles tendon injuries. [1] Ultrasound is often used to determine tendon thickness and gap size for complete ruptures and is inexpensive and fast. [2] MRI is better for detecting incomplete tears and planning surgery for chronic tears but is more expensive. [3] Imaging is rarely needed for acute cases but can help with chronic cases for diagnosis and surgical planning.
This document provides information on tibial plateau fractures, including:
- The tibial plateau is the proximal end of the tibia including the articular surfaces.
- Tibial plateau fractures most often involve the lateral plateau and are commonly associated with soft tissue injuries.
- Surgical treatment aims to restore the joint surface and provide stability to allow early mobilization.
- Surgical approaches include anterolateral, posteromedial, and anterior. Fixation methods include plates, screws, and external fixators.
- Arthroscopic techniques are increasingly used to directly visualize and treat the articular surface with minimal soft tissue disruption.
Assessent and radiology of distal end radius fractureSusanta85
distal end radius is a common fracture in elderly groups and also in young by high velocity trauma its assessment and radiology should know for its management
Distal radius fractures can be extra-articular or intra-articular. They are commonly classified based on location, configuration, displacement, involvement of the ulna, and stability. Treatment depends on factors like age, fracture pattern, and degree of displacement. Options include closed reduction with casting or surgical fixation to restore anatomy and allow early mobility. Complications can include malunion, arthritis, and nerve injuries if not properly treated.

3. Common fractures of long bones, the shoulder, carpus, pelvis and spine are examined along with their radiographic appearances and complications. Proper imaging techniques are emphasized.
This document discusses various types of fractures of the distal humerus. It begins by describing distal humerus fractures in general, including common mechanisms of injury and clinical features. It then discusses specific fracture types - supracondylar, intercondylar, condylar, trochlear, and capitellar - providing details on classification systems, treatment options, and potential complications for each. Measurement techniques for radiographic evaluation and several classification systems used for distal humerus fractures are also summarized.
This document provides an overview of the radiographic features seen in various rheumatic diseases. It describes the early and late manifestations seen in rheumatoid arthritis on x-rays, including periarticular osteopenia, erosions, and bone deformities. Features of psoriatic arthritis include asymmetric joint involvement and enthesophyte formation. Ankylosing spondylitis is characterized by sacroiliac joint fusion and syndesmophyte formation leading to a "bamboo spine." Gout typically causes well-defined erosions, often with overhanging edges. Calcium pyrophosphate disease results in chondrocalcinosis. Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis is identified by flowing
1. Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is a rare condition characterized by failure of the tibia to heal which can lead to deformity and recurrent fractures.
2. It has an unclear etiology but is often associated with neurofibromatosis type 1. Treatment aims to achieve bone union, prevent refracture, and correct limb length and ankle deformities.
3. Surgical treatment often involves vascularised fibular grafting, the Ilizarov technique using external fixation, or intramedullary nailing with bone grafting. The Ilizarov method uses corticotomy and gradual distraction to induce new bone formation.
Lateral condyle fractures of the elbow are common in children between ages 6-10 years. They occur when a varus force is applied to an extended elbow. These fractures are prone to displacement and nonunion due to pull from forearm extensors and being bathed in synovial fluid. Treatment depends on the amount of displacement, with undisplaced fractures often treated non-operatively and displaced fractures requiring closed or open reduction and internal fixation. Complications can include ulnar nerve palsy, osteonecrosis, nonunion, and cubitus deformities.
This document provides an overview of various metabolic bone diseases and their orthopedic manifestations. It discusses conditions such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, rickets, hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, and renal osteodystrophy. For each condition, it describes clinical presentations, radiographic findings, and differential diagnoses. Key radiographic signs include generalized osteopenia, abnormal bone mineralization patterns, fractures, subperiosteal bone resorption, and abnormal bone density/sclerosis. The document serves as an educational reference for orthopedic surgeons to understand how metabolic bone diseases commonly present and appear on imaging studies.
Elbow is the most common joint to dislocate in children. Posterior dislocation is most common.
Simple dislocations are those without fracture.
Complex dislocations are those that occur with an associated fracture
This document discusses various types of wrist fractures including scaphoid fractures, Colles' fractures, Smith's fractures, and Barton's fractures. Scaphoid fractures are the most common carpal bone fractures, often occurring in the waist or mid-portion from falls onto an outstretched hand. Physical examination findings and imaging can help diagnose these fractures. Treatment depends on fracture stability and displacement, ranging from splinting to screw fixation. Complications may include malunion or avascular necrosis.

Spinal fractures can occur in various locations and have different morphologies. Chalk stick fractures occur in fused spines like ankylosing spondylitis. Spinal compression fractures most often result from osteoporosis and cause vertebral height loss. Burst fractures involve disruption of the vertebral endplate and retropulsion of bone fragments into the spinal canal. Wedge fractures cause vertebral wedging from hyperextension injuries. Chance fractures extend through the vertebrae and posterior elements from high-energy flexion injuries.
Dear all,
This ppt contains the cause, types, clinical and radiological features, treatment and complication of Colles' fracture, Barton's fracture and Smith's fracture. I hope this is useful to you.
Thank you
Common lower limb injuries include fractures, dislocations, and subluxations of bones or joints. Posterior hip dislocations are the most common type of hip dislocation, often caused by an axial load on the flexed and adducted hip. They are diagnosed via x-ray and treated initially with closed reduction and immobilization. Complications can include avascular necrosis, stiffness, and late onset osteoarthritis. Femoral neck fractures are also common in the elderly and are classified using the Garden system to determine appropriate treatment.
This document provides an overview of extremity trauma and injuries. It discusses various fractures and dislocations that can occur in the shoulder, arm, elbow, wrist, hand, pelvis and lower extremity. Key points include classifications of injuries like Garden classification of femoral neck fractures, AO classification of intertrochanteric hip fractures, and Ruedi-Allgower classification of pilon tibia fractures. Common injuries described include acromioclavicular joint separations, shoulder dislocations, radial head and elbow fractures, Colles' fractures of the wrist, and tibial plateau fractures. Imaging findings and anatomy are discussed to aid in diagnosis.

The document summarizes mood disorders and their classification. It describes the main features of manic episodes, depressive episodes, bipolar mood disorder, recurrent depressive disorder, and persistent mood disorder. Manic episodes are characterized by elevated mood and increased psychomotor activity. Depressive episodes involve depressed mood, loss of interest, and feelings of worthlessness. Bipolar disorder involves recurrent episodes of mania and depression. Treatment involves medications like antidepressants, lithium, antipsychotics as well as psychosocial therapies.
This document provides guidance on preoperative care and assessment. It outlines the objectives of preoperative care, which include organizing care and the operating list, understanding surgical, medical and anesthetic assessments, optimizing the patient's condition, obtaining consent, and organizing the operating list. It describes evaluating the patient's history, examination, investigations, preoperative conditions and treatment, and documenting the assessments. Key areas of focus for the patient assessment include cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, neurological, endocrine and metabolic conditions. The document provides guidance on identifying and managing preoperative problems, obtaining informed consent, conducting a pre-anesthetic airway assessment, and arranging the operating theater list.
This document discusses hypoglycemia, including its causes, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment. Hypoglycemia is defined as a low blood glucose level below 70 mg/dL that causes symptoms resolved by glucose administration. Common causes in diabetics include inadequate food intake, excessive insulin, and increased exertion. Symptoms include neuroglycopenic effects like confusion and autonomic effects like palpitations. Diagnosis is confirmed with bedside glucose testing. Treatment depends on the patient's consciousness and includes oral carbohydrates, glucagon, or IV glucose. Most patients fully recover within 20 minutes with treatment of the underlying cause and glucose administration.
Shoulder injuries and instability can have various causes. There are three main types of shoulder instability: 1) traumatic structural instability due to major trauma or microtrauma, 2) atraumatic structural instability from repetitive overuse, and 3) atraumatic non-structural instability resulting from abnormal muscle recruitment. Common injuries include anterior dislocation, which can cause Bankart lesions and Hill-Sachs defects. Treatment depends on the type and severity but may involve immobilization, physical therapy to strengthen muscles, or surgery such as Bankart repair to reconstruct damaged tissues.
1. HIV attacks T-cells in the immune system, leading to AIDS in advanced stages.
2. Clinical manifestations in children vary widely and can include failure to thrive, respiratory issues, gastrointestinal diseases, and neurological problems.
3. Diagnosis is made through HIV antibody testing after 18 months or virological testing before 18 months, and management includes prophylaxis, antiretroviral therapy, treating opportunistic infections, adequate nutrition, and immunization.
Uterine polyps and fibroids are common benign uterine tumors. Uterine polyps can be endometrial, fibroid, adenomyomatous, or placental in origin. They typically present with menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, or postmenopausal bleeding. Diagnosis is usually made by ultrasound, and polyps can be removed by D&C or hysteroscopy. Fibroids are the most common benign tumors in women. They are estrogen dependent and present with heavy menstrual bleeding, infertility, pain, or an abdominal mass. Treatment involves medical therapy, myomectomy or hysterectomy depending on symptoms. Adenomyosis involves endometrial tissue within the myometrial
A medical certificate, sometimes called a doctor's certificate, is a statement from a healthcare provider that describes the results of a medical examination of a patient. It can serve as a sick note or evidence of a health condition. Medical certificates are used for various purposes, such as indicating eligibility for activities or benefits, making insurance claims, describing a medical condition, obtaining jobs or services, certifying freedom from contagious diseases, and issuing death certificates. They provide legally valid documentation of a person's health status or cause of death.

Malaysia has experienced rapid urbanization and growth in urban land area between 2000 and 2010. Its urban population increased from 10.2 million to 15 million in this period, and it has the fourth largest amount of built-up urban land in East Asia. However, Malaysian urban areas have relatively low population densities compared to other East Asian countries. While Kuala Lumpur is one of the largest urban areas in the region in terms of land area, it has a smaller population than some other major cities and ranks as the 22nd largest urban area population-wise due to its low density development.
PREVENTION & CONTROL OF OCCUPATIONAL DISEASES (Engineering measures)hanisahwarrior
The document discusses measures to prevent occupational diseases through engineering controls. It recommends designing buildings with attention to factors like flooring, ventilation, and cleanliness. Proper general ventilation is key, with openings providing fresh air supply. Mechanization of processes can reduce harmful contact, like replacing hand-mixing with mechanical devices. Hazardous materials should be substituted when possible with less toxic alternatives. Controls at the source like water sprays or wet methods can contain dust and particles.
This document provides an overview of the visual pathway and abnormalities in pupillary reflexes. It describes the anatomy of the visual pathway, from the optic nerves through the optic chiasm, optic tracts, lateral geniculate bodies, optic radiations, and occipital cortex. Lesions in different parts of the pathway can cause different abnormalities in pupillary reflexes, such as the light reflex or near reflex. Specific abnormalities discussed include amaurotic light reflex, Marcus Gunn pupil, Wernicke's hemianopic pupil, and Argyll Robertson's pupil. The document also addresses anisocoria and how to evaluate differences in pupil size.
Nasal polyps are non-cancerous masses of swollen nasal or sinus mucosa. There are two main types: bilateral ethmoidal polyps and antrochoanal polyps. Bilateral ethmoidal polyps commonly arise from inflammatory conditions like rhinosinusitis or disorders of ciliary motility. Antrochoanal polyps originate from the maxillary sinus near its opening and grow into the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. Symptoms include nasal obstruction, loss of smell, headache and discharge. Signs include pale grape-like masses seen on nasal examination. Treatment involves polypectomy or endoscopic sinus surgery. Recurrence is less common for antrochoanal polyps if completely removed from their
Nasal bone fractures are the most common facial trauma because the nose protrudes from the face. A frontal or lateral force can cause a nasal bone fracture depending on the magnitude. There are two main types - depressed fractures which result from a frontal blow causing the nasal bones to collapse inward, and angulated fractures from a lateral force which cause deviation of the nasal bridge. Clinical features include nasal swelling, bruising around the eyes, tenderness, deformity, and occasionally nosebleeds or nasal obstruction. Diagnosis is usually made through physical exam but x-rays can help show the fracture, though may sometimes miss it. Treatment depends on if there is displacement - non-displaced fractures may need no treatment, while displaced
This document discusses DNA typing. It begins with an objective to discuss the history, definition, techniques, applications, advantages and disadvantages of DNA typing. It defines DNA typing as a procedure that analyzes DNA extracted from a biological sample to generate a DNA profile. It discusses techniques like RFLP, PCR, STR and mitochondrial DNA analysis.

Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to generate images of the inside of the body without using ionizing radiation. It works by transmitting sound wave pulses into the body from a probe, detecting the echoes returning from tissue boundaries, and processing and displaying the images on a screen. Ultrasound gel is used between the probe and skin to allow for tight contact and transmission of the waves. Doppler ultrasound can detect the speed and direction of moving structures like blood cells by measuring the change in frequency of returning echoes. The images can display flow information in color or measure concentration and velocity.
