– See: – Radiographic Studies – Verticle Fractures of Medial Malleolus – Discussion: – transverse frx of fibula occuring below syndesmosis; – usually there is enough remaining butress of fibula to prevent lateral talar tilt or displacement; – avulsion frx of distal fibula c/w supination/adduction frx; – … Read more
– See: – Antiglide Plate – Lateral Malleolus – Radiographic Studies – Stability of Weber B Fractures – Supination Eversion Injury – Surgical Treatment – Discussion: – Type B: fibula frx at level of syndesmosis-transsyndesmosis; – most common type … Read more
– Discussion: – Weber C ankle fractures occur above the the syndesmosis and are similar to PER injuries in the Lauge Hansen classification: – classification: – C: fibula fracture above syndesmosis – C1 diaphyseal fracture of the fibula, simple … Read more
– See: – Stance – Muscle Activity During Gait – Discussion: – during last portion of single limb stance & entirety of wt release, tibial external rotation continues, ankle plantar flexion is seen, and sub- talar joint continues to invert; – forefoot is now in a … Read more
– Discussion: – this manuever helps diagnose SLD but the test is not specific for SLD, because it may reposition entire proximal carpal row if row, rather than the scaphoid; – manipulation of scaphoid by examiner may reproduce pt’s sensation of instability or even cause subluxation of proximal pole of the scaphoid; … Read more
– Discussion: – rare injury caused by compression and rotation with PIP joint flexion; – may occur as simple dislocations or fracture dislocations; – it is often unstable and irreducible; – volar dislocation involves disruption of central slip, along w/ collateral ligaments and palmar … Read more
– Discussion: – is always detached (usually from middle phalanx) in PIP dorsal dislocations; – distal avulsion of volar plate in dorsal PIP dislocations makes entrapment of plate w/in the joint unlikely (in contrast to MP joint in which complex dorsal dislocations prevent closed reduction); … Read more
