Study Notes

Surgical Procedures and Anatomy Terms

Hemiarthroplasty: Surgical procedure replacing proximal femur or humerus.
Osteotomy: Involves surgical cutting of bone for realignment or correction.
Bankhart Procedure: Addresses recurrent shoulder dislocation.
ORIF (Open Reduction Internal Fixation): Surgical method for fracture realignment using internal devices.

Types of Bone and Fractures

Cancellous Bone: Spongy bone located at the end of long bones and in the center of others.
Comminuted Fracture: A fracture with more than two bone fragments.
Transverse Fracture (Colles Fracture): A straight cross-section break across the bone.
Greenstick Fracture: Incomplete fracture that bends without breaking completely.
Intertrochanteric Fracture: Common in the elderly, affects the femur.

Bone and Joint Components

Meniscus: Semilunar cartilage located in the knee joint.
Acetabulum: Socket in the pelvis for the femur.
Condyle: Rounded projections on the femur.
Talus: Bone that articulates with the distal tibia and fibula.
Patella: Sesamoid bone in the quadriceps tendon.

Anesthesia and Surgical Tools

Bier Block: Regional anesthesia using double cuff tourniquet.
Driver: Tool used to insert nails into bone during procedures.
Drill & Reamer: Instruments for creating holes or hollow areas in bone.
Saw: Essential for cutting through bone.

Musculoskeletal Conditions

Osteoarthritis: Degenerative joint disease leading to cartilage breakdown.
Rheumatoid Arthritis: Autoimmune condition causing joint inflammation.
Subluxation: Partial dislocation of a joint.

Connective Tissues

Tendon: Connects muscle to bone; critical for movement.
Ligament: Connects bone to bone; stabilizes joints.
Bursa: Fluid-filled sacs that reduce friction in joints.

Bone Healing and Growth

Granulation: Healing process where scar tissue forms.
Remodeling: New bone formation process after injury.
Hemopoiesis: Blood cell production, primarily occurs in red marrow.

Joint Types and Movements

Diarthrosis: Freely movable joints, allowing a wide range of motion.
Hinge Joint: Allows flexion and extension, such as in the elbow.
Saddle Joint: Found between trapezium and metacarpal, allows specific movements.
Abduction: Movement away from the body’s midline.
Volar: Refers to the palmar surface or front of the hand.

Miscellaneous Terms

Exostosis: Abnormal bone growth or protrusion.
Ganglion: Benign cyst, commonly appears on the dorsal wrist.
Methylmethacrylate: Bone cement used in orthopedic surgery.
Sequestrum: Dead bone fragments separated from living tissue.
Valgus/Varus: Terms describing bone alignment (bent outward/inward).

Important Nerves and Structures

Median Nerve: Commonly compressed in carpal tunnel syndrome.
Iliac Crest: Prominent part of the hip bone used for autogenous bone grafts.
Trauma Devices: Various tools like clamps and retractors (Lane, Gelpi, Weitlaner) are used during surgeries for optimal exposure and stability.
