🔴 Important ☆INDIRECT RADIOGRAPHIC SIGNS of FRACTURE ,listed. One of the mentioned signs (a double cortical sign) demonstrated as well.

🔴There're 3 branches of posterior cord that are given off before its 2 terminal branches, namely: Upper subscapular nerve, Thoracodorsal nerve, Lower subscapular nerve. The terminal branches of posterior cord are Axillary nerve n & Radial nerve

🔴Skeletal Distribution of Acute #Osteomyelitis in Children👍From: nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… ♦️Osteomyelitis may affect any bone, with a predilection for tubular bones of the arms & legs.

Pathophysiology of Dupuytren's Disease👍 It's a benign proliferative disorder characterized by decreased hand function begins as a painless nodule & can progress to form diseased cords & contractures of the palm & fingers Journal of Hand Surgery, 2023, doi.org/10.1016/j.jhsa…

Arteries of the leg made simple👍From: PicturingMedicine

Brachial artery & its branches as well as its anastomosis around elbow shown 👍 It's worthy of noticing that brachial artery is a single vessel in 80% of cases. In other 20% of cases, a superficial brachial artery arises at the level of upper arm... Continue reading in the image

♦️os trigonum has rounded with corticated edges. VS ♦️Stieda process Post process of talus has (medial tubercle) & (lateral tubercle= Stieda’s process). VS ♦️Fx of posterolateral process of talus (Shepherd’s Fx) canbe mistaken as os trigonum Image: pin.it/6Zt7MAh3r

TENDONS & LIGAMENTS are dark on all MRI sequences, with the 👉EXCEPTION of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) which shows a striated appearance due to thickness & orientation of its collagen bundles. Quadriceps & triceps tendons normally have longitudinal striations as well.

There're 2 different types of Achilles tendonitis: noninsertional & insertional. The former affects younger, active people & the latter occurs at any time, even to people who aren't active. Nonsurgical treatments recommended in most cases first. If fails or severe then surgery

Bony pelvis divided into PELVIC GIRDLE (hip bone =innominate bone) & PELVIC SPINE (sacrum & coccyx). ●Hip bone: -Ilium: body,ala(wing) -Pubis: infe & sup rami -Ischium: body &tuberosity ☆Acetabulum is socket of hip joint&has 2walls (ant & post) &notch/condyloid fossa inferiorly

Lesions of upper brachial plexus typically comprise traction injuries of C5 & C6 nerve roots. Characteristic posture of extremity in this syndrome : ●Upper arm is internally rotated & adducted ●Forearm is extended & pronated ●Palm : POLICEMAN’S TIP or WAITER’S ’s TIP posture

Roughly speaking, lateral surface of TIBIA provides attachment sites for muscles of anterior compartment of the leg, while posterior surface provides attachment sites for the muscles of post leg compartment. Muscles of lateral leg compartment attach to FIBULA. Image: UpToDate

The anatomy of the lower extremity venous system is extremely variable. As a general rule, veins of the lower limb divided into 3 independent but interconnected systems: ●Deep venous system, ●Superficial venous system ●Perforating veins.

The common extensor tendon refers to the tendon originating from lateral epicondyle of the elbow and the fibers of 5 muscles come together to form the common extensor tendon. The most frequent pathology of the common extensor tendon is lateral epicondylitis.

The fleshy mass of leg formed by muscles that act on ankle & foot. Anterior group: extensor digitorum longus & tibialis anterior. Posterior group:The major post(calf) muscles: superficial gastrocnemius whose 2 heads form the prominent bulge of upper calf, & the deeper soleus.
