1 EMERGENCY PITFALLS IN ORTHOPAEDIC TRAUMA Thierry E. Benaroch, MD, FRCS MCH Trauma Rounds February 9, 2009

2

3

4

5

6 MORAL OF THE STORY Fracture distal radius and intact ulna W/O radius fracture will most likely displace; therefore, follow carefully (q/wk x2) Poorly moulded cast will increase deformity

7

8

9 MORAL OF THE STORY Older teenager will not remodel and fracture displacement must be scrutinized Follow fractures that have any displacement closely and refer to Orthopaedics early

10

11

12 MORAL OF THE STORY Fracture distal radius and intact ulna must follow closely even if radius fracture appears benign Mould cast appropriately

13

14

15 MORAL OF THE STORY Distal radius fracture and insignificant buckle of ulna (like intact ulna) Must follow closely with properly moulded cast

16

17

18 MORAL OF THE STORY Distal radius fracture intact ulna will displace more Older child: > 10 years old less chance of remodelling > 12 years old

19

20

21 MORAL OF THE STORY Distal radius tilt in a teenager must be reduced early Poor remodelling at this age (> 12 years old /> 10 years old ); therefore, need to be aggressive Closed reduction even if radius fracture appears to be not that displaced

22

23

24

25 MORAL OF THE STORY Salter Harris III and IV fractures involve growth plate and have potential for growth arrest Always refer to Orthopaedics even if not displaced Must be followed long term and yearly

26

27

28

29

30 MORAL OF THE STORY Most cases of distal radius fracture in < 10 years old and in < 12 years old will remodel to an acceptable alignment

31

32

33 MORAL OF THE STORY Midshaft radial, ulna fractures less capacity to remodel than distal radius fractures especially in adolescents Loss of radial bow must always be addressed aggressively

34

35 MORAL OF THE STORY Proximal radial fractures - very little remodelling capacities Loss of radial bow will lead to loss of pronation and or supination Be aggressive, early Orthopaedic consult

36

37

38 MORAL OF THE STORY Referred pain: Wrist pain elbow pathology Knee pain hip pathology

39

40

41

42 MORAL OF THE STORY Always need two views of a limb (AP/Lateral) to appreciate displacement of fracture

43

44

45

46

47 MORAL OF THE STORY All lateral condyles should be seen by Orthopaedics at time of injury or 2 3 days after with x-rays out of cast Lateral condyles may initially be undisplaced, but high propensity to displace especially if lots of swelling about the elbow

48

49

50 MORAL OF THE STORY If suspect lateral condyle or supracondylar fracture, must be seen in Orthopaedics within 3 4 days with an x-ray out of cast.

51

52

53

54 MORAL OF THE STORY Malunited supracondylar fractures makes individual more prone to lateral condyle fractures

55

56

57

58 MORAL OF THE STORY Always scrutinize minimally displaced supracondylar fractures for medial impaction and rotation.

59

60

61

62 MORAL OF THE STORY Always x-ray joint above and below fracture of forearm especially if isolated radial or ulna fracture. Ulna fracture Monteggia (radial head) Radius fracture Galaezzi (distal radius ulna joint)

63

64

65 MORAL OF THE STORY Isolated ulna fracture (especially midshaft to proximal) Always rule out radial head dislocation «Monteggia fracture» X-ray joint above and below fracture

66

67

68 MORAL OF THE STORY All intra-articular fractures should be seen by Orthopaedics early (in ER or < 3 days of injury) Fractures about the elbow heal quickly; therefore, see promptly after injury.

69

70

71

72 MORAL OF THE STORY In high energy trauma, ALWAYS x-ray more than you have to If suspect femur trauma, ALWAYS do pelvis x-ray Physical exam is crucial

73

74

75 MORAL OF THE STORY Any patient with a prior SCFE who develops contralateral hip pain has a SCFE until proven otherwise 30% SCFE bilateral, appear < 1 year within each other Unstable SCFE much worse prognosis than stable SCFE

76

77

78 MORAL OF THE STORY Always get 2 views (AP/Lateral) on limb trauma Distal tibia fracture and intact fibula may drift into varus. Follow closely. Equivalent to fracture distal radius with intact ulna

79

80 MORAL OF THE STORY Traumatic effusion in child Different diagnosis: ACL (skeletal mature) Tibial spine (skeletal immature) Patellar dislocation ± osteochondral fragment Meniscal, collateral ligament injury

81

82

83 MORAL OF THE STORY When unable to actively extend knee, think of quadricep-patella-patellar tendon-tibial tubercle continuum

84

85

86 MORAL OF THE STORY If suspect break in quadricep-patellapatellar tendon-tibial tubercle continuity Patella alta (high riding) In younger patients inferior pole patella sleeve fracture

87

88

89

90 MORAL OF THE STORY Always examine entire limb especially in presence of obvious deformity Hanging cast in humerus fracture, must start ABOVE fracture line

91

92

93 MORAL OF THE STORY Physical examination is crucial Scrutinize x-rays If obvious, not present look for subtle changes
