Q

Fatigue fracture

Insufficiency fracture

A

Both are “stress fractures” but fatigue is generally referred to as stress fracture

Fatigue fracture = abnormal stress on normal bone

Insufficiency fracture = normal stress on ABnormal bone

Q

What are the low risk stress fxs?

A

femoral neck (compressive side)

Posterior medial tibial fx (compressive too)

longitudinal patellar fx

2nd and 3rd metatarsal

calcaneus

. . . the rest are high risk (ie need more than conservative tx).

Q

What do you need to know about the hand’s extensor compartments?

A

There are 6 of them

1st compartment (APL and EPB) are the one’s affected in de Quervains

3rd compartment (EPL) courses along lister’s tubercle and can have delayed rupture after a non-displaced radial fx.

The 6 compartment - ECU - can get early tenosynovitis in RA

Maissonneuve

A

unstable fx involving medial tibilar malleulos and/or disruption of the distal tibiofibular syndesmosis

look for fracture of the proximal fibular shaft

34

intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus will have a fracture line through this

35
Q

jone’s fx

the fractures from proximal to distal . . .

A

extra-articular fx at the fifth metatarsal base, 1.5 cm distal to the proximal tuberosity at the metadiaphysial junction.

avulsion, jones, stress

A

medial cuneiform to the 2nd metatarsal base on the plantar aspect

38

acute flat arch should make you think of what?

A

PTT tear

40

type of insufficiency fracture

osteomalacia, rickets, and OI

Sudeck atrophy

A

Complex regional pain syndrome AKA Reflex symphathetic dystrophy

44
Q

Osteochondritis Dissecans versus Panner’s disease
