DPL criteria
>10cc blood >100,000 pRBC food particles bile bacteria WBC >500
Lefort fractures
I- maxillary
II- lateral to nasal bone, under eyes
III- lateral orbital walls
UE fractures - associated n/a injury ant shoulder dislocation- post shoulder dislocation- proximal humerus fx midshaft humerus fx supracondylar humerus fx elbow dislocation distal radius fx
ant shoulder - axillary n post shoulder- axillary a prox humerus fx- axillary n midshaft humerus fx- radial n supracondylar humerus- brachial a elbow dislocation- brachial a distal radius fx- median n
LE fractures- associated n/a injury ant hip dislocation post hip dislocation supracondylar femur fx posterior knee dislocation fibula neck fx
ant hip dislocation- femoral a post hip dislocation- sciatic n supracondylar femur fx- popliteal a posterior knee dislocation- popliteal a fibular neck fx- common perineal n
RAAS system
renin (from kidney)
convertns angiotensinogen (from liver) –> angiotensin I
ACE (from lung) converts AT I –> AT II
angiotensin II –> aldosterone release from adrenal cortex
acid vs alkalotic burns
acid- coagulation necrosis
alkali- liquefaction necrosis
nutrition needs in burns
25 cal/kg/day + (30cal x %burn)
protein 1g/kg/day + (3g x %burn)
steps in graft take
imbibation 0-3d
neovascularization after 3 d
side effects
silvadene
silver nitrate
sulfamylon (mafenide)
silvadene- neutropenia, thrombocytopenia
silver nitrate- hyponatremia, hypochloremia
sulfamylon- metabolic acidosis
azygous v and thoracic duct course
azygous- right (behind IVC), dumps into SVC
thoracic duct- right side, crosses midline T4/T5, dumps into left subclavian (near IJ)
lung resection PFTs
FEV1 >0.8 postresection (if borderline, consider V/Q scan to see which part of lung is shitty)
DLCO >10 postresection
(or >40% predicted postop value)
or preop pCO2>50, pO2<60
lung cancer stage and management
obtain bx, staging PET/CT, if stage I or II –> surgery; if + spread –> mediastinal eval (mediastinoscopy v EBUS)
Stage I and II - resection (node negative) Stage III (node +) - chemo and resection vs definitive chemo/XRT
(+ nodes –> at least stage III)
T3 (still can be resectable, stage II)- invades chest wall, pericardium, diaphragm, <2cm from carina
T4 (unresectable) - invasion to mediastinum, esophagus, trachea, vertebra, heart, great vessels
mediastinal tumors (by location)
Anterior- thymoma, thyroid CA, t cell lymphoma, teratoma (other germ cell tumors), parathyroid adenomas
Middle (heart trach aorta) - bronchiogenic cysts, pericardial cysts, enteric cysts, lymphoma
Posterior (esophagus, desc aorta)- enteric cysts, neurogenic tumors, lymphoma
risk factor for tracheo-innominate fistula? tx?
trach below 3rd tracheal ring
hold pressure, median sternotomy, ligate innominate
sensory skin nerve cells- pacinian, ruffini, krause, meissner
pacinian- pressure
ruffini- warmth
krause- cold
meissner- tactile
TRAM flap- main vessels
superior epigastrics
periumbilical perforators important determinant of viablity
pressure sore grading
I erythema
II partial skin loss- keep pressure off
III full thickness skin loss- debridement
IV involves bone or muscle- myocutaneous flaps
when to stage melanoma
> 1mm depth (panscan)
head and neck melanoma considerations
superficial parotidectomy if >1mm for anterior H&N melanoma
peripheral palisading nuclei
stromal retraction
(skin)
basal cell carcinoma
most aggressive type of basal cell carcinoma
morpheaform type
margins for basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma
basal cell- 3-4mm
squamous cell 5-10mm
sarcoma management
WLE (1cm), try to get one uninvolved fascial plane
XRT postop, consider preop if really large
risk factors for angiosarcoma
PVC and arsenic
