Dislocation of Acriomioclavicular joint



-acromion process normally superior


-however in this case we will see an abnormally superior distal clavicle


-most superior aspect of upper limb



-coracoclavicluar ligament may be damaged as well


Glenohumeral joint capsule damage

-head of humerus is anterior and inferior to normal joint


-sensory deficits over superolateral portions of arm


-subscapularis - anterior aspect of scapula attaches anterior to humeral head


-axillary nerve at risk

anular ligament


radial dislocation

-guarding elbow, elbow flexed, forearm is pronated


Colles fracture

-fall forward onto wrist


-wrist extended


forearm and hand shaped like dinner fork



-distal radius damaged


Motorcycle accident (Erb duchenne palsy)

-sensory loss and difficulty raising arm


-arm adducted and medially rotated (deltoid, and infraspinatus, supraspinatus injured, teres minor) (axillary nerve, suprascapular)


paralysis- arm abduction


elbow flexion(1/5) supination (3/5) (biceps brachii, brachioradialis) (supinator, biceps brachii ) (musculocutaneous, radial nerve)


sensory loss: superolateral arm, posteriolateral arm and posteromedial arm, and posteriolateral forearm (axillary nerve, radial nerve)



(C5, C6)


superior trunk, (c5-c6)

Carpal tunnel

-wasted thenar eminence (abductor pollicis brevis, opponens pollicis, flexor pollicis brevis)


pain on lateral palm


Thenar flexion, extension, abduction, opposition


Paresis: 2nd and 3rd digit metacarpophalangeal joint flexion and interphalangeal joint extension (lumbricals--> 1 ans 2 branches of median nerve, palmar interossei, dorsal interossei)



lumbricals 3 and 4 innervated by ulnar nerve



Sensory loss- anteriolateral half of hand, anterior medial half of hand, posterior distal end of digits 123 and half of 4

Extensor hood(an expansion)

an expansion of the extensor digitorum tendon, which anchors to the palmar plate (anterior connective tissue)

Pain in index finger after a cat bite

5th digit swollen, held in slight flexion, tender with palpation


palm and wrist were swollen


paresthesia of thumb opposition (3/5)



bursa in hand will spread through sheaths



-Tenosynovitis



Where will the blood flow around the scapula?

dorsal scapular artery, surprascapular artery, and circumflex scapular artery

ER presentation


impailed by arrow


chest/shoulder through pec major/minor


lacerating axillary artery


what biomechanical deficit might he suffer


protracting scapula

automotive collision


compound proximal fraction ulna


where would you put turnquet

brachial artery of arm

When interossei contract...

MCP joints flex and IP joints extend due to extnsor hood

The intricasies of flexion extension of digits


Palmar Vs Doral Interossei

Palmar


-flex MCP and extend the IP joints


-Adduct


-1 head each


- 3 muscles


-Ulnar nerve


Dorsal


-flex MCP and extend IP


-abduct


-2 heads each


4 muscles


ulnar nerve

All sheaths besides the

middle 3 digit sheath does not communicate with common flexor sheath

If the radial artery is damaged with a fall on scaphoid bone it could become

necrotic and painful

What are nutrient vessels?

red blood cells, wbcs and platelets are produced in the marrow of long bones and enters ciculation via nutrient veins

Suprascapular nerves and vessles

-deep and protected


- to damage these you would have to go very deep near superior scaplula


- if damaged you would lost supraspinatus muscle and infraspinatous muscle movement


- no sensory loss

Axillar nerve/posterior circumflex humeral arteries

-bundle is vulnerable during shoulder dislocation and fracture to surgical neck of humerus


- if damaged you would have motor loss of deltoid and teres minor


- you might see atrophy of deltoid


- sensory loss to posteriolateral arm where deltoid is

Radial nerve/deep brachial artery damage

vulnerable during midshaft humeral fractures


-motor loss- extensors in arm and forarm


--sensory loss-entire back of hand and arm and forarm

Median nerve/brachial vessels (arm only)

bundle vulnerable during trauma to medial aspect of arm


- anterior flexors except flexor carpi ulnaris


-1st and second lumbricals


-thenar eminence


-Skin of palmar side of thumb, the index finger, middle finger and half of ring finger


-skin on anterolateral forearm


- nails beds of fingers mentioned


Ulnar nerve/ulnar vessels

medial aspect of distal forearm and carpus


- sensory- little finger and half of ring finger


supplies palmar side of these fingers and both the front and back of the tips



In the forarm the ulnar nerve innervates

flexor carpi ulnaris


flexor digitorum profundus (medial half)

IN the hand the deep branch of ulnar nerve innervates

hypothenar muscle


-opponens digiti minimi


-abductor digit minimi


-flexor digiti minimi


-dorsal interossei


-palmar interossei


adducto pollicis


flexor pollics brevis



Anterior interrosseus nerve and artery

-this bundle is vulnerable to trauma to the midline of hte forearm

Proper palmar digital arteries and nerves

laceration of lateral palmar aspect of all digits

Compartment syndrome

-pressure in compartment rises and blood flow may be cut off


- when pressure reaches diasatolic pressure 20-30mm Hg fasciotomy performed



-pain out of proportion to injury


- paresthesias


- pain with stretching muscle in compartment
