FOREARM INJURIES Monteggia Fracture Proximal Radius Fracture Radius Ulna Fracture Ulna Fracture (Nightstick) Distal radius fracture and distal radioulna dislocation(Galeazzi #) Distal Radius # Distal radioulna joint injury
MONTEGGIA FRACTURE Proximal ulna # with proximal radioulna dislocation(Radius head-Anterior) Rx =Open reduction internal Fixation Cx =PIN injury, Redislocation,Subluxation or inadequate reduction
MONTEGGIA #
PROXIMAL RADIUS # Displaced/ Non displaced Rx=Non displaced =AE POP Slab- close follow up =Displaced=ORIF Complications=Malunion
RADIUS ULNA #” Displaced/ Non displaced Pattern of Fracture=transverse, oblique, spiral comminuted Complications=Acute-Compartment Sx -Vascular Injury -Pin injury Late=Non/mal union, synostosis and refracture
RADIUS AND ULNA #
NIGHTSTICK # Direct blow to ulna distal 1/3 Displaced or undisplaced Direct = transverse Associated rotational forces oblique therefore unstable Rx=undisplaced well moulded cast, displaced and unstable ORIF
NIGHTSTICK #
GALEAZZI # Distal 1/3 radius # with assoc-dislocation of distal radioulna joint/ instability AP – widening of DRUJ LAT-Dislocation of DRUJ Assoc ulna styloid # Shortening of Radial height by > 5mm Rx = ORIF plus supination or CRPP DRUJ CX=Mal/ Nan union, DRUJ subluxation
GALEAZZI #
COLLE”S # Pathological #-Osteoporotic bone Distal 2-3cm of distal radius Clinically = Dinner fork deformity X-R =PA- radial displacement & impaction may have associated ulna styloid =LAT- Dorsal displacement & apex volar displacement COLLE”S TYPE #- SAME BUT NORMAL BONE
