    Study Notes

    Types of Fractures

    • Common fractures: Buckle, avulsion, greenstick, stress, compound, spiral, Colles', and Salter Harris.
    • Radial Head Fracture: Often occurs in the elbow.
    • Supracondylar Fracture: Most common in children, indicated by the posterior fat pad sign.
    • Scaphoid Fracture: Affects the wrist/hand, may lead to avascular necrosis.
    • Spiral Fracture: Typically occurs in fibula or tibia.
    • Colles’ Fracture: Related to falls from an outstretched hand; may require surgery and splinting.
    • Salter Harris Fracture: Involves the growth plate; Type 2 is the most common in pediatrics.
    • Buckle (Torus) Fracture: Incomplete fracture caused by partial compression of the cortex, commonly found in long bones, especially wrist.
    • Greenstick Fracture: Incomplete fracture that leaves a portion of the cortex intact; may require manipulation to reset.
    • Apophyseal Avulsion Fracture: Apophysis torn from bone by muscle, commonly at anterior superior iliac crest and tibial tubercle.
    • Toddler’s Spiral Fracture: Typically seen in children, often in distal tibia.

    Secondary Signs of Fracture on X-Ray

    • Joint Effusion: Indicates potential injury or fracture.
    • Periosteal Reaction: May suggest healing; also known as callus formation.

    Characteristics of Parkinson's Disease

    • Motor Symptoms: Bradykinesia, resting tremor, rigidity, postural instability, speech difficulties, blurred vision, and dysphagia.
    • Nonmotor Symptoms: Include constipation, sexual dysfunction, urinary issues, depression/anxiety, dementia, and insomnia.

    Causes of Chorea

    • Hyperkinetic Movement: Characterized by involuntary, abrupt, irregular movements.
    • Hereditary Causes: Huntington’s disease and Wilson's disease.
    • Drug-Related: Neuroleptics and dopaminergic drugs.
    • Toxic Metabolic Causes: Alcohol, carbon dioxide, and thyrotoxicosis.
    • Immunologic Triggers: Lupus erythematosus or streptococcus infections.
    • Pregnancy and Vascular Issues can also induce chorea.

    Movement Control Mechanisms

    • Myoclonus: Sudden, brief muscle contractions; can be seen in epilepsy or as hiccups.
    • Dystonia: Sustained muscle contractions causing abnormal postures or repetitive twisting.
    • Tremors: Continuous movements; types include resting (Parkinson's), postural (essential), and action tremors (cerebellar outflow).

    Wilson’s Disease Pathophysiology

    • Impaired copper excretion into bile leading to copper toxicity and liver damage.
    • Copper also fails to incorporate into ceruloplasmin, causing tissue accumulation.

    Tanner Stages of Puberty

    • Tanner Stage 1: Prepubertal changes in pubic hair and genitalia.
    • Tanner Stage 2 (11.5-13 years): Development of coarse curly pubic hair and initial breast tissue growth.
    • Tanner Stage 3 (12-15 years): Adult pubic hair without thigh spread, secondary mound formation in breasts, menarche occurrence.
    • Tanner Stage 4 (Over 15 years): Adult hair reaches thighs, adult breast contours are present.

    Identifying Testicular Abnormalities

    • Testicular Torsion: Characterized by an elevated, horizontally positioned testicle, with loss of cremasteric reflex.
    • Hydrocele: Presents as a large scrotal mass; fluid can be seen with transillumination.
    • Spermatocele: Incidental mass at the head of the epididymis.
    • Varicocele: Looks like a bag of worms; can be assessed with the Valsalva maneuver.
    • Testicular Cancer: Often presents as a painless mass, with negative transillumination.

    Male GU Emergencies

    • Testicular torsion is a critical emergency requiring immediate intervention.

    Phimosis vs. Paraphimosis

    • Phimosis: Inability to retract the prepuce over the glands.
    • Paraphimosis: Prepuce is trapped and cannot be reduced.

    Stages of Syphilis

    • Primary Stage: Chancre formation, painless local infection.
    • Secondary Stage: Occurs 2-12 weeks post-infection with systemic symptoms like fever, headaches, rashes.
    • Latent Stage: The asymptomatic period between secondary and tertiary stages.
    • Tertiary Stage: Can occur 1-30 years after initial infection, potentially leading to neurosyphilis.

    Common Skin Disorders

    • Furuncle: A painful, pus-filled bump caused by S. aureus.
    • Carbuncle: A cluster of interconnected boils.
    • Abscess: Swollen lump filled with pus from a bacterial infection.

    Atopic Dermatitis Symptoms

    • Associated with asthma and allergic rhinitis; highly pruritic eczema managed with gentle bathing and emollients.
    • Severe cases may require topical steroids and antihistamines.

    Common Agents of Skin Disorders

    • Thrush: Candida.
    • Impetigo: Staphylococcus or Streptococcus.
    • Varicella: Chickenpox caused by varicella-zoster virus.

    Terminology of Skin Lesions

    • Macule: Flat lesion ≤ 1 cm in size differing in color.
    • Patch: Flat lesion > 1 cm in size.
    • Papule: Raised lesion ≤ 1 cm in diameter, can be red, black, or brown.
