MUNIR SAADEDDIN, FRCSED ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR & CONSULTANT COLLEGE OF MEDICINE KING SAUD UNIVERSITY Introduction to Orthopaedics
2
Objectives of this lecture To explain what is Orthopedic and what conditions will be discussed during this course. Explain what do we mean by Red Flags. List the different causes of Orthopedic disease. Describe some of clinical examination tests. Introduce titles of Clinical Skills which will be taught during this course.
3
Orthopaedics ORTHO = Straight, Upright, Correct Paios = Child First used by Nicolas Andry a French doctor(1841) in a book titled Orthopedia : the art to correct and prevent deformities in children
5
Orthopedic Surgery = Not only Bone Surgery Orthopedic specialty is the branch of medicine which manage trauma and disease of Musculoskeletal system. It includes : bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, peripheral nerves, vertebral column and spinal cord and its nerves.
6
Orthopedic Specialty Also Known as : Trauma and Orthopedic Surgery. Sub-Specialties in orthopedic include : Pediatric Orthopedic, Sport and Reconstructive Orthopedic, Orthopedic Trauma, Arthroplasty, Spinal Surgery, Foot and Ankle surgery and Orthopedic Oncology.
7
Red Flags Red Flag = Warning Symptom or Sign. Red flags should always be looked for and remembered. Presence of a red flag means the necessity for urgent or different action/intervention.
8
Examples of Red Flags Open Fractures : more serious and very high possibility of infection and complications Complicated Fractures : fracture with injury to major blood vessel, nerve or nearby structure Compartment Syndrome : increase in intra- compartment pressure which endangers the blood circulation of the limb and may affect nerve supply Acute joint Dislocations : requires urgent reduction or may cause serious complications
9
Examples of Red Flags Multiple Trauma or Pelvic Injury: more than one fracture or injury sustained at the same time ; consider massive blood loss and associated injuries. Cauda Equina Syndrome : compression of the nerve roots of the Cauda Equina at the spinal canal which affect motor and nerve supply to lower limbs and bladder (also saddle or peri-anal area). Infection of Bone, Joint and Soft Tissue : Osteomyelitis : Infection of the bone. Septic Arthritis :Infection of the joint. Cellulitis :spreading Infection of the soft tissue. May cause septicemia or irreversible damage
10
Alignment terminology
11
Alignment Terminology: Cubitus Varus
12
Alignment terminology: Cubitus Valgus
13
Orthopedic Diseases Congenital : present since birth( though may not be evident till some time later). Acquired : develop or begin after birth.
14
Congenital Anomaly : Talepoequinovarus TEV
15
Acquired Orthopedic Conditions Acquired conditions include : Trauma Developmental Inflammation Infection Neuromuscular Degenerative Metabolic Tumor
16
Traumatic Injuries Fractures. Dislocations. Fracture dislocation: dislocation associated with nearby fracture. Soft tissues injuries: ligaments, tendons, menisci. Nerve injuries. Epiphyseal injuries.
17
Fractures: Break in the continuity of bone
18
Dislocations Complete separation of the articular surface Distal to proximal fragment Anterior, Posterior, Inferior, Superior. Acute dislocation may be complicated by neurovascular injury. Acute dislocations require urgent reduction
19
Fracture Dislocation
20
Dislocation and Fracture dislocation of the Spine often results in Paralysis
21
Intra-articular Fractures If displaced ; should always be treated by ORIF= (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation) failure to reduce and fix such fracture results in loss of function, deformity and early degenerative changes
22
Soft tissue injuries of the knee
23
Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury: MRI
24
ACL Injury: Lachman’s test
25
MCL: Value of Stress Xrays
26
(Developmental Dislocation of Hip) DDH
27
Orthosis : Pavlick Harness for DDH
28
Developmental: SCFE (Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis)
29
Spinal Deformities: Kyphosis or Hyperlordosis
30
Spinal Deformity: Scoliosis
31
Developmental Foot deformity: Hallux Valgus
32
Degenerative Disorders Occur at any joint Can be primary or secondary Increased wear and tear Can lead to pain and/or deformity and/or loss of function Increase with advancing age Management depends on type and age
33
OA Hip
34
Total Hip Arthroplasty ( THA )
35
Osteoarthosis of Knee
36
Osteoarthritis of Knee
37
Metabolic Disorders (Rickets): Bow Legs
38
Osteoporosis: Fractured NOF
39
Hemi-Arthroplasty Lt Hip
40
Spinal Osteoporosis
41
Osteoporosis: Colles fracture
42
Bone Tumors
43
Bone Tumor
44
Bone tumors
45
Chronic Osteomyelitis : discharging sinus
46
Chronic Osteomyelitis : Sequestrum
47
Spinal Infection : Tuberculosis: Para Vertebral Abscess
48
Neuromuscular disorder: Polio
49
Neurological Evaluation : Sensory
51
Nerve Injury: Muscle wasting
52
Nerve Injury: Sensory Loss
53
Muscle Power Testing : Iliopsoas
54
Muscle Power Testing : Quadriceps
55
Spinal Cord Injury Often results from fracture dislocation of spine When injury is at cervical spine it may result in Tetraplegia Injury at dorsal spine may result in Paraplegia
56
Devastating effect of Spinal Cord Injury
57
Physiotherapy for Orthopedic Patients Physiotherapy is an important part of orthopedic and trauma management It is used for : pain relief, prevention of stiffness, muscle strengthening, mobilisation of stiff joint or spine, training non-weight bearing or partial weight bearing Physiotherapy modalities include: heat, cold, exercise, ultrasound, traction, electrical stimulation
58
Clinical Skill: Cast application
59
Clinical Skills: Knee Aspiration
