Transtrapezial peritrapezoidal transcapital axial radial fracture dislocation of the carpus.

ABSTRACT: We report a unique pattern of an axial radial fracture dislocation of the carpus. The fracture dislocation line runs transtrapezial peritrapezoidal transcapital transmetacarpal III/IV. Open reduction and internal fixation was performed 11 days after the accident. The result at 9 months is moderate, with a range of motion of 63% and strength of 46% compared to the opposite side.

Volar dislocation of the ulnar head after distal radial fracture: Case report and review of the pertinent literature.

Project description:IntroductionWe report the case of volar dislocation of the ulnar head occurred after osteosynthesis for the treatment of distal radius fracture.Presentation of caseThe patient, 68-year-old female, had the dorsal displaced left distal radius fracture and volar dislocation of the ulnar head. Osteosynthesis was performed using a volar locking plate without postoperative immobilization. Two weeks after surgery, volar dislocation of the ulnar head in distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) was noted on CT. Re-operation, triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) was sutured to the ulnar fovea using a suture anchor, was performed in order to stabilize DRUJ. At 24 months after surgery, left wrist joint pain and the range of motion have improved, and the Mayo wrist score was excellent.DiscussionBased on the fact that the radius was fractured and the ulna was dislocated in DRUJ at the time of injury, the present case may have been a Galeazzi fracture.ConclusionWhen distal radius fracture is complicated by ulnar instability of DRUJ, active repair of the TFCC function may be necessary to prevent residual postoperative instability.

Rare Bosworth Fracture-Dislocation Variant of an Irreducible Distal Fibula Dislocation of the Ankle Without Fibula Fracture.

Project description:BackgroundIrreducible fracture-dislocations of the ankle are rare orthopedic emergencies that should not be missed. The Bosworth fracture-dislocation is a rare fracture where an incarcerated fibula fragment remains locked behind the posterior lateral tubercle of the tibia. We present a case describing a variation of a Bosworth injury, with a dislocation of an intact distal fibula with an associated medial malleolus fracture.MethodsOur patient is a 55-year old male who presented to the emergency department with a left ankle injury after being involved in a road traffic accident. Radiographs show a posterior dislocation of an intact distal fibula associated with a fracture of the medial malleolus and disruption of the ankle mortise.ResultsAn attempt to reduce the dislocation at the emergency department under sedation was unsuccessful. The patient was subsequently taken to the operating theatre for manipulation and reduction and application of an external fixator. Definitive fixation was performed successfully a week later.ConclusionA high index of suspicion is critical for diagnosing a Bosworth fracture-dislocation, as this diagnosis is commonly missed. Early diagnosis and proper surgical anatomic reduction are important to prevent chronic ankle instability and evolution towards ankle arthritis.Level of evidenceLevel IV, case study.

Simultaneous dislocation of the radial head and distal radio-ulnar joint without fracture in an adult patient: a case report and review of literature.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Simultaneous dislocation of the radial head and distal radio-ulnar joint without fracture (Criss-Cross Injury) in an adult patient is rarely reported in previous studies. The pathological changes and injury patterns have not been clearly demonstrated. CASE PRESENTATION:A 26-year-old woman presented with acute pain of the right wrist and elbow after a fall from cycling. Physical examination revealed an unstable elbow and wrist joint. Plain radiographs showed volar dislocation of the radial head and dorsal dislocation of the distal radius without associated fracture, forming a criss-cross appearance of the ulna and radius on the lateral radiograph. MRI images confirmed partial rupture of the proximal interosseous membrane from its dorsal attachment on the radius, as well as partial rupture of the medial collateral ligament. Conservative treatment failed because the radiocapitellar joint and distal radio-ulnar joint could not be simultaneously reduced. Surgical exploration revealed a highly unstable radial head, but the annular ligament was found to be intact. Manual force was applied to reduce the radial head and a percutaneous K-wire was used to stabilize the proximal radioulnar joint with the forearm in full supination. After surgery, the elbow was immobilized in 90° flexion by a long arm cast for 4 weeks. The K-wire was removed at 6 weeks postoperatively. At 18 months postoperatively, the patient had regained a full range of flexion and extension, with normal supination and a slight limitation in pronation. CONCLUSIONS:The proximal IOM, especially the dorsal band, was injured in Criss-Cross injuries, while the central part of the IOM remained intact. This injury pattern distinguished itself from Essex-Lopresti injury, which mainly involves rupture of the central band of the IOM.

Axial and radial forces of cross-bridges depend on lattice spacing.

Project description:Nearly all mechanochemical models of the cross-bridge treat myosin as a simple linear spring arranged parallel to the contractile filaments. These single-spring models cannot account for the radial force that muscle generates (orthogonal to the long axis of the myofilaments) or the effects of changes in filament lattice spacing. We describe a more complex myosin cross-bridge model that uses multiple springs to replicate myosin's force-generating power stroke and account for the effects of lattice spacing and radial force. The four springs which comprise this model (the 4sXB) correspond to the mechanically relevant portions of myosin's structure. As occurs in vivo, the 4sXB's state-transition kinetics and force-production dynamics vary with lattice spacing. Additionally, we describe a simpler two-spring cross-bridge (2sXB) model which produces results similar to those of the 4sXB model. Unlike the 4sXB model, the 2sXB model requires no iterative techniques, making it more computationally efficient. The rate at which both multi-spring cross-bridges bind and generate force decreases as lattice spacing grows. The axial force generated by each cross-bridge as it undergoes a power stroke increases as lattice spacing grows. The radial force that a cross-bridge produces as it undergoes a power stroke varies from expansive to compressive as lattice spacing increases. Importantly, these results mirror those for intact, contracting muscle force production.

Wound botulism complicating internal fixation of a complex radial fracture.

Project description:Botulism developed in a patient following surgical repair of an open radial fracture. Symptoms resolved after treatment with antitoxin and antibiotics, and hardware excision was deferred. Subsequent osteomyelitis necessitated hardware exchange, and wound cultures grew Clostridium argentinense. This case highlights the management of botulism associated with orthopedic hardware.

Arthroscopic, Nonrigid Fixation of a Displaced Glenoid Fracture After Anterior Shoulder Dislocation.

Project description:Glenoid rim fractures are recognized as a risk factor for recurrent instability after anterior shoulder dislocation. In addition to traditional open treatments of bony Bankart lesions, several arthroscopic techniques of fixation and reconstruction recently have been described. We present a technique of arthroscopic nonrigid fixation for large glenoid rim fractures, as an alternative to existing procedures.

Arthroscopic Management of a Coracoid Fracture Associated With Acromioclavicular Dislocation: Technical Note.

Project description:Operative management of a coracoid process fracture is indicated in case of painful nonunion, displacement of more than 1 cm, or multiple disruptions of the superior shoulder suspensory complex. Several techniques have been described with open reduction of the fracture and internal fixation using cortical screws with or without additional fixation of the acromioclavicular joint. This Technical Note aims to introduce an alternative safe, minimally invasive method for arthroscopic fixation of a coracoid fracture with simultaneously reduction of the acromioclavicular joint. The described arthroscopic technique might be helpful for shoulder surgeons who want to fix the coracoid process while avoiding the disadvantages of an open approach.
