Till now we know two fracture pattern in forearm fracture dislocation, Galeazzi fracture dislocation which is defined as fracture of radial shaft with distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) dislocation and Monteggia fracture dislocation which is ulnar fracture with radial head dislocation. During this case report we present a case with simultaneous distal and proximal radioulnar dislocation and radial shaft fracture which is extremely rare fracture pattern and could be a new entity in forearm bones fracture dislocation.

Case: Dorsal dislocations of the distal interphalangeal joint with associated volar base fractures of the distal phalanx are complex injuries that pose challenges for achieving stable reduction and restoring optimal joint function. This case report describes the successful management of a 40-year-old male cardiologist who sustained such an injury after a cricket ball trauma. The treatment involved a combined approach of closed reduction, dorsal extension block pinning, and intrafocal pinning of the volar base fracture.

Case: We describe a 13-year-old adolescent girl experiencing persistent pain and reduced grip strength following nonoperative treatment of a medial epicondyle fracture-dislocation with closed reduction over 5 years before her referral to our clinic. Neurological examination and magnetic resonance imaging of the elbow revealed damage to the median nerve due to an entrapment within the elbow. Surgical release of the nerve resulted in complete pain relief and improved neurological function with normalized nerve conduction.

High-velocity traumatic amputations of the proximal upper extremity are devastating to the patient and represent an extreme surgical challenge to the treatment team. The hand surgeon must simultaneously battle devascularization with timely microvascular anastomosis, gross contamination with meticulous debridement, and amputation with stable fixation. In restoring a functional extremity, many of these goals are in contention with each other.

Proximal humerus fracture dislocations: outcomes of management.

ANZ J Surg

January 2025

School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

Purpose: Proximal humerus fracture dislocations are amongst the most severe proximal humerus injuries, presenting a challenging management problem. The aim of this study was to report on long-term outcomes of management of proximal humerus fracture dislocations.

Methods: Patients with a proximal humerus fracture dislocation managed at a Level 1 trauma centre from January 2010 to December 2018 were included.

Background: Consequences of osteochondral fractures associated with patellar dislocation can be severe for younger patients. Precise 3-dimensional characterization of fracture location, size, frequency, and radiographic associations remain undefined in this population.

Purpose: (1) To define the topographic characteristics of osteochondral fractures in pediatric and adolescent patients with first-time patellar dislocations and (2) to determine the relationship between these characteristics and radiographic and patient factors.
