| ulna fractures | Fractures of the larger bone of the forearm. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| unstable cervical spine fractures | <radiology> Flexion: bilateral interfacetal dislocation, flexion teardrop fracture (usually C5 or C6) extension: extension teardrop fracture (usually C2 or C3), hangman's fracture, extension-dislocation, extension-fracture-dislocation, odontoid fracture vertical compression: Jefferson burst fracture see: cervical spine fractures (12 Dec 1998) |
| zygomatic fractures | Fractures of the zygoma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| forearm fractures | <radiology> Monteggia proximal ulnar fracture dislocated radial head, Galeazzi radial fracture dislocated distal ulna, mnemonic: MUGR (Monteggia ulna, Galeazzi radius), Monteggia More common (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures | Breaks in bones or cartilage. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, closed | Fractures in which the break in bone is not accompanied by an external wound. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, comminuted | A fracture in which the bone is splintered or crushed. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, malunited | Union of the fragments of a fractured bone in a faulty or abnormal position. If two bones parallel to one another unite by osseous tissue, the result is a crossunion. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, open | Fractures in which there is an external wound communicating with the break of the bone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, spontaneous | Fractures occurring as a result of disease of a bone or from some undiscoverable cause, and not due to trauma. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, stress | Fractures due to the strain caused by repetitive exercise. They are thought to arise from a combination of muscle fatigue and bone failure, and occur in situations where bone remodeling predominates over repair. The classical stress fracture is the march fracture of military personnel, in which the metatarsal undergoes repeated stress during marching. The most common sites of stress fractures are the metatarsus, fibula, tibia, and femoral neck. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fractures, ununited | A fracture in which union fails to occur, the ends of the bone becoming rounded and eburnated, and a false joint occurs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| angle of femoral torsion | angle of femoral torsion |
| anterior femoral cutaneous nerves | Anterior cutaneous branches of femoral nerve; supplies distal 3/4 of skin and superficial fascia of anterior and medial thigh. Synonym: rami cutanei anteriores nervi femoralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bilocular femoral hernia | A femoral hernia with two sacs, the first being in the femoral canal, and the second passing through a defect in the superficial fascia and appearing immediately beneath the skin. Synonym: bilocular femoral hernia, Hey's hernia. (05 Mar 2000) |
