Blood and Nerve Supply to the Bones01:29

Blood and Nerve Supply to the Bones

Bones are dynamic organs that require a rich supply of oxygen and nutrients. Around 5% to 10% of the cardiac output supplies blood to the bones. A typical long bone has three main sources: the nutrient artery, the metaphyseal and epiphyseal arteries, and the periosteal arteries.
Nutrient Artery
The nutrient artery is the main blood vessel that enters the diaphysis via the nutrient foramen. While most long bones have only one nutrient foramen, large bones, such as the femur, may have two. This...
Muscles of the Forearm that Move the Hand and Fingers01:16

Muscles of the Forearm that Move the Hand and Fingers

The muscles of the forearm that move the wrist, hand, and digits are numerous and diverse. They can be classified into two groups based on their location and function — the anterior and posterior compartment muscles.
Anterior Compartment
The anterior compartment muscles originate from the humerus. They primarily function as flexors and are also known as flexor muscles. They typically insert on the carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges. The superficial layer includes the flexor carpi radialis,...

Cardiovascular System Abnormal Findings I: Inspection and Palpation

In a cardiovascular examination, inspection and palpation are crucial for identifying abnormalities.

Pain01:20

Pain

Pain serves as a critical warning signal that alerts the body to potential or actual harm. When mechanical pressure on the skin is intense, such as from a sharp pinch, the sensation transitions from touch to pain. Similarly, extreme temperatures, like a hot pot handle, convert the sensation of heat into pain. Pain can also result from overstimulation of other senses, such as blinding light, loud noise, or the intense heat from habañero peppers. This ability to sense pain is essential for...
Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius01:09

Bones of the Upper Limb: Radius

The radius is longer of the two bones that make up the human antebrachium or forearm. At the proximal end, the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus and the radial notch of the ulna to form the elbow joint. At the distal end, the radius articulates with the ulna via the ulnar notch, forming the distal radioulnar joint. Distally, the radius also attaches to the carpal wrist bones (scaphoid and lunate) to form the radiocarpal joint.
The radius has a nail-shaped head, and a short...
Ankle Joint01:10

Ankle Joint

The ankle is formed by the talocrural joint (crural = leg). It consists of the articulations between the talus bone of the foot and the distal ends of the tibia and fibula of the leg. The superior aspect of the talus bone is square-shaped and has three areas of articulation. The top of the talus articulates with the inferior tibia. This is the portion of the ankle joint that carries the body weight between the leg and foot. The sides of the talus are firmly held in position by the articulations...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Isolated traumatic carpometacarpal (CMC) dislocation of the thumb is rare. Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) can effectively manage this injury, allowing a return to preinjury activities.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Traumatology

Background:

  • Carpometacarpal (CMC) joint dislocations of the thumb are infrequent injuries.
  • Current management strategies for thumb CMC dislocation vary, including closed reduction, Kirschner wire fixation, casting, and ligament reconstruction, with ongoing debate regarding optimal treatment.
  • This study focuses on isolated traumatic first CMC joint dislocation.

Observation:

  • A case of isolated traumatic carpometacarpal dislocation of the first CMC joint in a 22-year-old student is presented.
  • The patient was treated with manipulation under anesthesia (MUA).

Findings:

  • The patient successfully returned to preinjury activities within two months without complications.
  • Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) can yield good outcomes for first CMC joint dislocations.

Implications:

  • Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) is a viable treatment option for isolated traumatic thumb CMC joint dislocations.
  • Patients with high functional demands on their hands may potentially benefit from concurrent ligament reconstruction alongside MUA.
