Question 1
A 28-year-old motorcyclist sustains high-energy trauma to the right lower leg. Physical examination reveals an 11-cm laceration over the anterior tibia with extensive periosteal stripping, severe muscle crushing, and visible bone exposed without adequate local soft-tissue coverage, though distal dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial pulses are palpably intact. According to the Gustilo-Anderson classification for open fractures, how is this injury classified?
Correct Answer:
Gustilo-Anderson Type IIIB
Question 2
A 34-year-old man who underwent closed reduction and cast immobilization for a closed comminuted tibial shaft fracture 12 hours ago reports unremitting, escalating pain in his calf that is completely refractory to intravenous morphine. Physical examination demonstrates a tense, non-compressible calf and severe exacerbation of pain upon passive dorsiflexion of the great toe. His blood pressure is 115/75 mmHg and intracompartmental catheter measurement of the deep posterior compartment records a pressure of 48 mmHg. What is the definitive management?
Correct Answer:
Immediate emergent two-incision, four-compartment fasciotomy of the leg.
Question 3
A 24-year-old male polytrauma patient is brought to the trauma center following a high-speed collision. He presents with severe bilateral pulmonary contusions, an open Gustilo IIIA femoral shaft fracture, and a closed pelvic ring injury. In the operating room, his core temperature is 34.2°C, arterial blood gas shows pH 7.20 and base deficit -8.5 mEq/L, and platelet count is 65,000/uL with active microvascular oozing. In accordance with Damage Control Orthopedics (DCO) principles, what is the most appropriate initial skeletal management?
Correct Answer:
Rapid application of a temporary spanning external fixator to the femur and pelvic binder/external fixation, followed by transfer to the ICU for physiological resuscitation.
Question 4
A 45-year-old woman sustains a displaced intra-articular distal radius fracture after falling on an outstretched hand. Radiographs demonstrate a comminuted fracture involving both the radiocarpal and distal radioulnar joints with 4 mm of intra-articular step-off, 25° of dorsal tilt, and 5 mm of radial shortening (AO/OTA 23-C3). Which anatomical structure serves as the primary landmark for placing a volar locking plate distal to the watershed line to prevent flexor pollicis longus (FPL) tendon rupture?
Correct Answer:
The pronator quadratus ridge and the volar rim watershed line, ensuring the plate remains proximal to the transverse volar prominence.
Question 5
A healthy 38-year-old construction worker falls from a scaffolding and sustains an isolated, displaced intracapsular femoral neck fracture. Pelvic radiographs show complete displacement with disruption of the trabecular pattern and femoral head tilting (Garden IV / AO/OTA 31-B3). What is the primary arterial blood supply to the femoral head threatened by this injury, and what is the optimal surgical strategy?
Correct Answer:
Lateral epiphyseal branches of the medial femoral circumflex artery; treated with urgent anatomical reduction and rigid internal fixation.
