Question 1

K-wire is used in

Accepted Answer

K-wire, or Kirschner wire, is a versatile orthopedic tool used in various procedures, including circlage (wire loop used to hold bone fragments together), fixing forearm bones, and as a temporary fixation method prior to plating to ensure proper alignment of bone fragments.

Question 2

Treatment of Acute myositis Ossificans is

Accepted Answer

Immobilization is the initial treatment for acute myositis ossificans to prevent further injury and allow the area to heal.

Question 3

The treatment of choice for non-union of extracapsular fracture neck femur

Accepted Answer

Internal fixation is the treatment of choice for non-union of extracapsular fracture neck femur as it provides stability and promotes healing by aligning the bone fragments properly.

Question 4

Duga's test is helpful in

Accepted Answer

Duga's test is used to diagnose anterior dislocation of the shoulder by assessing the ability to touch the opposite shoulder with the hand of the affected arm.

Question 5

Open reduction in children is done for

Accepted Answer

Open reduction is often required for lateral condyle of humerus fractures in children to ensure proper alignment and healing, as these fractures can affect the growth plate and joint function.

Question 6

Avascular necrosis of the head of femur is not seen in

Accepted Answer

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a condition where the blood supply to the head of the femur is disrupted, leading to bone death and potential collapse of the femoral head. It is commonly seen in fractures that disrupt the blood supply to the femoral head, such as subcapital and transcervical fractures, and in conditions like central dislocation of the hip which can damage the vascular supply. Intertrochanteric fractures, however, occur further down the femur and typically do not disrupt the blood supply to the femoral head, making AVN less likely in these cases.

Question 7

Stiffness in knee is maximum when traction is at

Accepted Answer

The answer of Stiffness in knee is maximum when traction...

Question 8

Intramedullary fixation is ideal in a case of fracture of shaft of femur when there is

Accepted Answer

Intramedullary fixation is ideal for a transverse fracture of the femoral shaft as it provides stable fixation and allows for early mobilization.

Question 9

Treatment of choice for old non-united fracture of shaft of femur

Accepted Answer

Compression plating with bone grafting is the treatment of choice for old non-united fractures of the shaft of the femur. This approach provides both mechanical stability and biological stimulation for bone healing.

Question 10

A Bennet's fracture is difficult to maintain in reduced position because of the pull of

Accepted Answer

The answer of A Bennet's fracture is difficult to maintain...

Question 11

Inter trochanteric fracture has trendelenberg sign negative because of the action of

Accepted Answer

Gluteus medius is the primary abductor of the hip and is responsible for the Trendelenburg sign.

Question 12

A segmental compound fracture tibia with 1cm skin wound is classified as

Accepted Answer

A segmental fracture with a 1cm skin wound is classified as a Type I open fracture according to the Gustilo-Anderson classification, which involves a clean wound less than 1cm in length.

Question 13

Steinman pin is used for all except

Accepted Answer

Steinman pins are used for skeletal traction and can be inserted into bones near joints for fractures but are not used for skull traction. Skull traction typically involves different devices or methods, such as the Gardner-Wells tongs or halo traction.

Question 14

Treatment after removal of plaster for supracondylar fracture of humerus is

Accepted Answer

Active mobilization at the elbow joint is recommended after the removal of plaster for a supracondylar fracture of the humerus to restore function and prevent stiffness.

Question 15

Lateral condyle can cause

Accepted Answer

The lateral condyle, when affected, can lead to genu valgum, which is a condition where the knees angle in and touch each other when the legs are straightened.

Question 16

Muscles involved in Volkmann's ischemic contracture

Accepted Answer

Volkmann's ischemic contracture involves the forearm muscles, particularly the flexor muscles, which include the flexor pollicis longus, flexor profundus, and flexor sublimis.

Question 17

Medial meniscus tear is more common than lateral meniscus because of its decreased

Accepted Answer

The medial meniscus is more prone to injury than the lateral meniscus due to its decreased mobility. It is more firmly attached to the joint capsule and the medial collateral ligament, making it less mobile and more susceptible to tears during twisting or shearing forces.

Question 18

Volkmann's ischaemic contracture is due to

Accepted Answer

Volkmann's ischaemic contracture is caused by increased compartment pressure in the limb, leading to muscle and nerve damage due to restricted blood flow.

Question 19

Attitude of the limb in anterior dislocation of hip

Accepted Answer

In anterior dislocation of the hip, the limb is typically positioned in flexion, abduction, and external rotation due to the displacement of the femoral head anteriorly.

Question 20

Treatment of fracture clavicle in an infant is best treated by

Accepted Answer

The answer of Treatment of fracture clavicle in an infant...
