1
Replaces the humeral head & glenoid with implants representing normal anatomical alignment. Humeral head is attached to stem in humeral shaft & glenoid implant replaces the glenoid fossa. Patient still has a strong rotator cuff to hold shoulder in place. 3 words
2
Patients RC is not sufficient enough to prevent dislocation. Implants will be switched; humeral head portion is attached to previous location of glenoid fossa & a flat humeral cap, similar to the glenoid, is attached to the top of the humeral stem within the shaft. 3 words
3
MIS where you use a fast-fix system to pull torn pieces back together. 3 words
4
Rodding the femur on an ortho trauma bed, going from knee up. 4 words (2nd word abbreviated)
5
Performed in areas of chondromalacia with typically a 45 degree awl & mallet to promote healing. 2 words
6
Placing a rod down the femoral shaft, going from hip down, on traction table. Nail comes in long or short. 4 words (2nd word abbreviated)
7
May be done as the result of trauma. Only a humeral head (possibly attached to a stem) is placed. Glenoid is not reconstructed. 3 words
8
Restores hand & finger mobility by releasing palmar fascia. Hand table, 15 or beaver blade, tenotomy scissors, & adson. 2 words
9
Typically performed because of trauma and a femoral neck fx. Does not reconstruct acetabulum. 3 words
10
Performed lateral on normal OR table. Hip is dislocated & typically manipulated by staff in case for reconstruction. 3 words (3rd word abbreviated)
11
Fusion of the talocalcaneal, talonavicular, & calcaneocuboid joints. Usually a result of chronic pain from joint disease, defects, arthritis, or neuromuscular disease. 2 words
12
May be auto or allograft. Hamstring or patellar tendon are most common options. Sport injury is typical cause. Can be repaired arthroscopically, open, or a combination of the two. 2 words (1st abbreviated)
13
Temporary relief for severe open forearm/wrist fx that allows swelling to go down. Small threaded pins, bar-to-bar clamps, pin-to-bar clamps, hand set. 4 words
14
Preferred option for kids & non-displaced fx. Casting or splinting material: plaster/fiberglass, stockinette, webril, coban, ace wrap, silk tape, scissors. 2 words
15
Procedure to fix a tear. Most commonly occurs where the supraspinatus tendon inserts into the humerus. 3 words
16
MIS diagnostic or corrective approach to knee injuries. Commonly done to assess sports injuries and arthritis progression. 2 words
17
Typically the result of a MVA, sports, or industrial accident. 3.5 dynamic compression plate & screws, small frag set, mini c-arm, reduction forceps. Would not typically perform on children. 3 words
18
Glenohumerual dislocation reoccurrence, determines the need to reattach the labrum to the glenoid rim using heavy suture or anchors. 2 words
19
May be BKA or AKA, usually due to ischemia from diabetes caused vascular disease. May use a Gigli saw. 2 words
20
Performed with an Arch table of Hannah Bed. Allows natural separation of muscles instead of cutting for quicker recovery. Need items like angled broach handle & holmens to allow access. 2 words (2nd word abbreviated)
21
Possibly life threatening. Major ortho inst., curved plates, long 3.5 screws & drill. Possibly cell saver. Open Book fx. 2 words
22
Typically the scaphoid bone or a Colle's fx if distal radius. Hand table, 2.4/3.0 screws, DVR plate, traction with 3-5lbs weight, reduction forceps, bone graft. 2 words
23
Done for PS, but tibial spacer has a peg that is placed into the tibial implant to allow for greater side to side rotation, not impacted. 2 words, both abbreviated
24
Does not remove the ACL or PCL during reconstruction. Allows for less disruption to knee joint & more natural movement. Implant allows ACL & PCL to move freely between implants. 5 words if you were to write it all out, 2 words in your crossword, but both are abbreviated
25
Done for PS, but tibial spacer is impacted into the tibial implant to limit side to side rotation. 2 words, both abbreviated
26
Reconstruction of the knee joint with removal of the cruciate ligaments, implants compensate for this removal with a stabilization box & tibial post. 2 words, both abbreviated
