Approach to fractures
Across
- 2. What is the first layer of bone at the epiphyseal end?
- 3. What is a placed used to prevent collapse in fracture patterns which are unstable under compressive forces called?
- 5. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is failed reparative response progressing to a resorptive response?
- 6. Which type of fracture is caused by torsion?
- 7. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is no living bone tissue at either fracture end?
- 8. Which union is it when the fracture has healed but with abnormal anatomical alignment?
- 13. Which views are important in bone fractures?
- 14. Which type of fracture is caused by compression/shearing?
- 16. Which type of healing happens when bone ends are <0.8mm apart?
- 17. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is a gap at the fracture site, too large to be bridged?
- 18. Which type of fracture is caused by distraction/tension?
- 19. Which type of healing can happen when bone ends are <0.01mm apart?
- 21. What is the name for more than 2 fragments of a fracture?
- 22. Which repair method is relatively inexpensive but only able to neutralise bending forces?
Down
- 1. What is a plate used to overcome forces applied at the fracture site during healing called?
- 4. Which viable non-union has a large callus, retaining blood supply caused by excessive motion?
- 9. What produce extracellular matrix?
- 10. Which viable non-union has minimal callus and a blood supply but the biological response is inadequate?
- 11. Which union is when the fracture is taking longer to heal than expected but will go on to heal?
- 12. What is the union what the fracture is not healing and will require intervention?
- 15. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is sequestrum preventing healing?
- 20. Which type of fractures in the Gustilo-Anderson classification used for?
