First Ray
What is 15 degrees of dorsiflexion, 5-10 degrees of abduction, and neutral varus position?
This Rowe classification is the same as an Essex-Lopresti type fracture.
What is Rowe IV/V?
This is the mechanism of injury for a medial talar dome fracture.
What is plantarflexion and inversion?
This is a bacteria associated with puncture wounds to the plantar foot.
What is pseudomonas?
A Brostrum procedure includes this structure for repair of ATFL.
What is inferior extensor retinaculum?
This is a contraindication to an IPJ fusion.
What is a plantarflexed rigid first ray?
A patient with a Gustilo-Anderson type IIIB fracture had his latest tetanus shot 8 years ago. Patient should get:
1. Tetanus booster + TIG
2. Tetanus booster
3. TIG
4. Nothing
Answer: tetanus booster + TIG
This the MOI for a tibial sesamoid fracture.
What is hyperextension of MTPJ?
(Bonus: +50 a drug used for this infection if patient is allergic to the firstline med)

(Bonus: flagyl PO)
This is the ligamentous avulsion associated with a juvenile Tillaux fracture.
(Bonus +50 : this is the bone that is avulsed)
What is the antero-inferior tibulo-fibular ligament?
(Bonus: antero-lateral distal tibia)
This named procedure is a dorsiflexory osteotomy of base of proximal phalanx and used to treat for this condition.
What is a Kessel-Bonny procedure? What is hallux limitus?
This is NOT an indication for compartment syndrome:
1. Pain
2. Hypothermia
3. Paralysis
4. Paresthesia
What is hypothermia?
This the MOI for an anterior calcaneal process fracture.
(Bonus +50 for naming ligament rupture associated with this fracture)
(Bonus: bifurcate ligament)
This is a bacteria that is commonly seen in pediatric patients with hematogenous acute osteomyelitis.
What is haemophilus influenzae?
This is the optimal position for an ankle fusion.
What is neutral dorsiflexion, 0-5 degrees of external rotation, around 5 degrees of heel valgus?
One of these is NOT a common complication of a Lapidus procedure:
1. Shortens the medial column
2. Lesser metatarsalgia
3. Troughing
4. Delayed/non-union
What is troughing?
This the MOI for a Lisfranc dislocation.
What is axial load on a plantarflexed forefoot?
These are common side effects associated with aminoglycosides.
What are ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and neurotoxicity?
These conditions cause a ball-and-socket joint at the ankle.
What are STJ coalition/congenital hypolasia/absence of fibula/limb length discrepancy?
This is a procedure for a first ray deformity with an IM = 17 degrees, HAb = 20 degrees, HIA = 25 degrees, no hypermobility of first ray.
What is a Scarf/CBWO/crescentic + distal Akin?
These are methods of fixating 5th met base fractures.
What are tension banding/hook plate/IM nail/K-wires?
A vertical medial malleolus fracture and a low avulsion fibular fracture is classified under this Lauge-Hansen type.
(Bonus +50 points for the numerical type)
What is SAD (Supination-Adduction)?
Bonus: SAD II
This is the genetic difference between HA-MRSA and CA-MRSA
What is Panton-Valentine Leukocidin (PVL) toxin gene?
Tibial varum is 8 degrees. STJ varum is 2 degrees. This is the patient's rearfoot varus.
What is 10 degrees?
