Q. Lift off test is done for??
Ans. SUBSCAPULARIS MUSCLE
B
Q.Rotator Interval ??
Ans. Rotator interval is interval between subscapularis and
suprascapularis. Coracohumeral ligament passes through this interval
1) Most common type of shoulder dislocation = Anterior type (subcoracoid> preglenoid)
2) Mechanism of injury for anterior dislocation = abduction and external rotation
3) Position of arm in anterior dislocation = abduction and external rotation
4) Position of arm in posterior dislocation = adduction and internal rotation
5) Most common joint to dislocate = shoulder
6) Least common joint to dislocate = Ankle
7) Tests for anterior shoulder dislocation = Bryant’s test
Callaway’s Test
Dugas test
Hamilton ruler test
Ans.
‘A’ is anterior dislocation and ‘B’ is Posterior dislocation
Explanation:
In anterior dislocation of shoulder, position of shoulder is abducted
and externally rotated and you can see that in xray i.e humerus will be
at an angle to scapula i.e abducted position.
In posterior dislocation, position of shoulder is adducted and
internally rotated, so u can see clearly in xray that humerus is straight
(adducted) and not making any angle.
Anterior dislocation
Line is straight…..so
Posterior dislocation
A Bankart lesion is an injury of the anterior (inferior) glenoid labrum of the
shoulder due to anterior shoulder dislocation. When this happens, a pocket at
the front of the glenoid forms that allows the humeral head to dislocate into it.
Hill–Sachs fracture, is a cortical depression in the posterolateral head of
the humerus. It results from forceful impaction of the humeral head against
the anteroinferior glenoid rim when the shoulder is dislocated anteriorly.
Q. What is Reverse Hill sach’s Lesion??
Ans. It is defect in Antero medial part aspect
of humerus head in posterior dislocation of shoulder
Mnemonic: R – Reverse hill sachs
A – Anterior part of humeral head
M – Medial part of humeral head
P – Posterior dislocation
Q. Muscle crossing shoulder joint = Long head of Biceps
Q. Weakest portion of shoulder joint capsule = Inferior
Shoulder is weakest inferiorly but dislocations are more common
anteriorly since it is the direction of force which decides dislocation but
Never the anatomical weakness
Q. Most common early complication of = Nerve Injury
shoulder dislocation
Q. Most common Nerve Injury in = Axillary N.

-GARTLAND Classification is used for it
- Treatment : Close Reduction and K wire fixation
- MC complication : Malunion = Cubitus varus or gunstock deformity
- MC Nerve Injury : Anterior Interosseus Nerve ( A>M>R>U )
- 3 point bony relationship is maintained i.e tips of medial and
lateral epicondyle and olecranon
-MC Cause of Volkmann Ischemic
Contracture
1) MILCH Classification is used
2) MC complication : Non union – leads to Cubitus Valgus
3) Treatment : Open reduction
4) Treatment of cubitus varus : Modified French Osteotomy
5) Late complication : Tardy Ulnar N. Palsy
6) 3point bony landmark is disturbed

- Calf pressure during walking is = 200-300mmHg
-In compartment Sx, pain on passive stretch ( distal most joint of extremity)
is the first sign
-Peripheral pulses can be normal in compartment syndrome
- MC muscle involved in volkmann ischemic contracture :
Flexor digitorum profundus> flexor pollicis longus
A pulled elbow is a common injury amongst children under the age of five.
It is a result of the lower arm (radius bone) slipping out of its normal
position at the elbow joint or more accurately subluxation of annular ligament
from the head of radius
Chid holds elbow in slight flexion with elbow normal
Q. Treatment for Olecranon # ??
A. Tension Band wiring
-Monteggia fracture is a fracture of the proximal third of the ulna with
dislocation of the proximal radio-ulnar joint

The Galeazzi fracture is a fracture of the radius with dislocation of the
distal radioulnar joint.
AColles' fracture is a fracture of the distal radius in the forearm with dorsal
