ABSTRACT

Presentamos el caso de una niña de 9 años que sufrió una luxación posterior del codo derecho con translocación proximal entre el cúbito y el radio. Se trata de un tipo de luxación excepcional que en nuestro caso no se acompañó de lesiones de las superficies articulares del codo, a diferencia de la mayoría de los casos ya publicados. En este artículo se insiste en la importancia de realizar un diagnóstico precoz de esta variedad de luxación, siendo su conocimiento la mejor forma de evitar que pase desapercibida. La utilización de tomografía axial computarizada (TAC) ayudó a ese diagnóstico precoz, permitiendo realizar una reducción ortopédica cerrada inmediata y conseguir una curación sin secuelas


We present a 9-year-old girl who suffered a posterior dislocation of the right elbow with a proximal translocation between the ulna and the radius. It is a type of exceptional dislocation which in our case was not accompanied by lesions of the joint surfaces of the elbow unlike most cases already published. This article stresses the importance of making an early diagnosis of this variety of dislocation; this is the best way to prevent it from going unnoticed. The use of Computed Tomography (CT) helped this early diagnosis, enabling an immediate closed orthopaedic reduction and achieving a cure without sequelae

ABSTRACT

The clinical case of an 80-year-old female who suffered three fractures in uncemented stems implanted in her right hip in a period of three years is presented. A fracture occurred in the prosthetic neck and the other two at the juncture of the conical and cylindrical stem portion, coinciding with the metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction of the femur. The main causes of the failure were an increasing concentration of forces at the level of the implant as a consequence of the increased length of the neck and lateralization of the femur (offset). Other causes that have contributed to this prosthetic failure are analyzed.


Se presenta el caso clínico de una paciente de 80 años que sufrió tres roturas de vástagos protésicos no cementados implantados en su cadera derecha en un período de tres años. Una rotura ocurrió en el cuello protésico y las otras dos en la unión de la porción cónica y cilíndrica del vástago, coincidiendo con la zona metafiso-diafisaria del fémur. La causas principales del fallo han sido un incremento de la concentración de fuerzas a nivel del implante como consecuencia del aumento de la longitud del cuello y de la lateralización femoral (offset). Se analizan otras causas que han podido contribuir a dicho fallo protésico.

ABSTRACT

I report the case of a 15-year-old white girl with an asymptomatic scapholunotriquetral fusion associated with a capitometacarpal coalition in the right wrist. She had additional anomalies of the fifth ray including shortening and ulnar deviation of the fifth metacarpal, brachydactyly of the little finger, fusion of the fourth and fifth metacarpals and absence of the ulnar styloid.
