- Distal radius fracture. A distal radius fracture is a common bone fracture of the radius in the forearm. Because of its proximity to the wrist joint, this injury is often called a wrist fracture. Treatment is usually with immobilization, although surgery is sometimes needed for complex fractures.

ReviewDistal metadiaphyseal tibial fractures Spiral and oblique fractures of distal 1/3 of tibia-fibula. are relatively common fractures of long bones. Due to their. types, aetiology, limited coverage and blood supply, these. fractures often lead to union and soft tissue problems. Displacement, bone loss, soft tissue injury, infection and.

Metacarpal Fractures Treatment & Management Metacarpal neck fractures. Minimally angulated or displaced fractures can be managed with simple immobilization for 3-4 weeks. The degree of acceptable angulation is controversial. Most surgeons agree that no more than 10-15° of angulation in the second and third metacarpals should be accepted without reduction.

First Metatarsal-phalangeal Joint (MTP) Arthrodesis First Metatarsal-phalangeal Joint (MTP) Arthrodesis. First metatarsal-phlangeal joint (MTP) arthrodesis is a surgical procedure designed to help relieve pain in the front of the foot. It also corrects deformities within the MTP joint caused by injury, arthritis or genetic defect. This procedure will ultimately fuse the bone at the base of the big toe to the first metatarsal.

ReviewDistal metadiaphyseal tibial fractures Fractures of the distal tibial metaphysis, diaphysis and adjacent diaphysis are a common consequence of road traffic accidents or footballing injuries.

- The metaphysis (/mətˈæfᵻsᵻs/) is the narrow portion of a long bone between the epiphysis and the diaphysis.[1] It contains the growth plate, the part of the bone that grows during childhood and as it grows, it ossifies near the diaphysis and the epiphyses. The metaphysis may be divided anatomically into three components based on tissue content: a cartilaginous component (epiphyseal plate), a bony component (metaphysis) and a fibrous component surrounding the periphery of the plate.

Bones of the Hand: Carpals, Metacarpals and Phalanges There are two common fractures of the metacarpals. 1  Boxer’s fracture – A fracture of the 5th metacarpal neck. 2  Bennett’s fracture – A fracture of the 1st metacarpal base, extending into the carpometacarpal joint. Metacarpals – There are five metacarpals, each one related to a digit. 2  Phalanges (Most distal) – The bones of the fingers. 3  Each finger has three phalanges, except for the thumb, which has two.

Bones of the Hand: Carpals, Metacarpals and Phalanges Clinical Relevance: Fractures of the Metacarpals. There are two common fractures of the metacarpals. 1  Boxer’s fracture – A fracture of the 5th metacarpal neck. 2  It is usually caused by a clenched fist striking a hard object.3  The distal part of the fracture is displaced posteriorly, producing shortening of the affected finger. These are located in the wrist area. 2  Metacarpals – There are five metacarpals, each one related to a digit. 3  Phalanges (Most distal) – The bones of the fingers. 4  Each finger has three phalanges, except for the thumb, which has two.

Metatarsal fracture (acute) - aftercare Metatarsal fracture (acute) - aftercare. The metatarsal bones are the long bones in your foot that connect your ankle to your toes. They also help you balance when you stand and walk. A sudden blow or severe twist of your foot, or overuse, can cause a break, or acute (sudden) fracture, in one of the bones. There are five metatarsal bones in your foot. The 5th metatarsal is the outer bone that connects to your little toe. It is the most commonly fractured metatarsal bone.

- A number of fractures occur at the base of the 5th metatarsal (see fractures of the proximal fifth metatarsal) as well as entities that mimic fractures: 1  stress fracture of the 5th metatarsal. 2  Jones fracture. 3  os peroneum. 4  os vesalianum. 5  normal apophysis of the proximal 5th metatarsal.

Distal radial physeal fractures - Emergency Department 2. Physeal fractures are classified by the Salter-Harris classification and whether the radius, ulna, or both bones are injured. Radial physeal fractures can occur in isolation or be associated with an ulna fracture (greenstick, physeal or styloid).

- A variety of splinting devices can be used for loose protection. In the closed crush fracture of the distal phalanx, the L -shaped Alumafoam splint placed on the volar aspect to protect the soft tissues is considered the best treatment.

- Dr Craig Hacking ◉ ◈ and Dr Jeremy Jones ◉ et al. The metaphysis (pl: metaphyses) is the wide portion of a long bone and the region of the bone where growth occurs. Growth occurs at the section of the metaphysis that is adjacent to the growth plate (physis). The metaphysis is located between the diaphysis and epiphysis.

- Spiral and oblique fractures of distal 1/3 of tibia-fibula, which are accepted as unstable fractures, have a wide range. of treatment modalities from closed reduction to external. fixator. The objectives in the treatment of these fractures. are rapid and ideal healing, minimisation of loss of function.

Metacarpal fractures In dogs, the metacarpal bones are numbered 1 to 5 from medial to lateral; metatarsal bones are numbered 2 through 5. A first metatarsal may rarely be present. Each bone consists of a proximal base, a body, and distal head.Metacarpals and metatarsals 2 through 5 articulate with the carpal or tarsal bones proximally and their corresponding phalanges distally.n one study, six of eight dogs with metacarpal/metatarsal fractures due to motor vehicle trauma had additional fractures or orthopedic injury. Potentially life-threatening conditions often accompany major trauma and must be managed before injuries to the metacarpals or metatarsals are considered.

Distal Radius Fractures of the Wrist: Avoiding Complications with Proper Diagnosis and Treatment There are two common variants of distal radius fractures that are characterized by the direction of forces applied to the wrist during a fall: 1  Colles' fractures, the most common type of distal radius fractures, which occur when falling on an outstretched hand, where the hand is extended backward on the wrist, and. Smith’s fractures, which are caused by the opposite mechanism, i.e., when the hand is flexed forward under the wrist.

History Radiographic findings are rare for the small avulsion fracture at the dorsal base of the middle phalanx. The best indication of central slip damage is inability to extend the PIP joint fully against active resistance. A central slip disruption is present unless proven otherwise when full extension cannot be performed.

CHAPTER 41 RADIAL AND ULNAR OSTEOTOMY Radial, ulnar, or radial and ulnar osteotomy is a technique often needed to treat abnormalities of the canine forelimb. Osteotomy is necessary to correct malunions and forelimb deviations resulting from growth plate abnormalities. The following material is taken, with minor modifications, from Riser and Shirer (1965).ISTAL LATERAL RADIAL PHYSEAL GROWTH DISTURBANCES. Premature closure of the distal lateral radial physis can result in severe developmental deformities of the involved forelimb. Recognition of the problem early in its course is necessary to minimize valgus deformity and secondary osteoarthritis of the elbow and carpus.

Distal Radius Fractures A distal radius fracture usually results in pain, swelling, bruising of the affected limb and sometimes gross deformity with the wrist hanging in an odd position. (Figures 2, 3) It is important to seek medical attention at your nearest emergency room if you suspect that you broke your wrist.

Metacarpal Fractures Fractures of the metacarpals and phalanges constitute approximately 10% of all fractures. Metacarpal fractures account for 30-40% of all hand fractures. Fractures of the fifth metacarpal neck alone account for 10% of all fractures in the hand. The lifetime incidence of metacarpal fractures is approximately 2.5%.

Anatomy Distal Humerus Fractures of the Elbow. A distal humerus fracture is a break in the lower end of the upper arm bone (humerus), one of the three bones that come together to form the elbow joint. A fracture in this area can be very painful and make elbow motion difficult or impossible.
