Master AN, a 4-year-old boy, suffered a blunt trauma along his left wrist while playing at home. He was rushed for consultation the next day by his parents, where radiological investigation revealed a greenstick fracture of the distal end of the radius along his left wrist. He was immediately immobilized with a plaster of Paris slab and pain medication, along with proper assurance to his parents. After 2 weeks, his plaster was removed, and a fresh X-ray showed near-complete union of his fracture. Thus, he was advised to refrain from sports activities for a couple more weeks. He went on to heal well.
Thus, greenstick fractures are very common in this age group and can be completely treated conservatively with no residual deformity.

Mrs. GH, a 62-year-old lady, had a history of domestic fall injuring her left wrist. Immediately after the injury, she went to a local hospital where she was treated conservatively. When she came to me after 15 days of conservative management, it was found that her distal radius fracture was completely displaced and her wrist was completely deformed. She was immediately advised to undergo operative management, and all her preoperative investigations were done. Her operation went uneventfully. After a brief period of immobilization, she was advised to undergo physiotherapy. Within 6 weeks, she gained a full, painless functional range of motion of her left wrist joint.
Thus, distal radius displaced comminuted intra-articular fractures, when treated operatively in elderly patients, provide the best functional outcome in no time.

Stay tuned for more such orthopedic updates. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Mrs SB, a 71 years old lady presented with a history of domestic fall, following which she injured her left knee and was unable to bear weight on her left lower limb. On further evaluation it was found that she had suffered from a comminuted displaced patella fracture. She was immediately treated with immobilization and pain killers. And was asked to undergo surgical intervention.
She was a known diabetic, hypertensive, ischemic heart disease patient who had recently undergone stenting surgery for her heart block. She was also suffering from chronic kidney disease, and thus on multiple medications.
On performing all her preoperative investigations, and after consulting with her cardiologist it was found that under no circumstances she can undergo any sort of operative intervention. Thus after discussing with her family members, we decided to go on with conservative management.
A cylindrical cast was done along her left lower limb and she was asked to continue quadriceps exercises for the time being.
In no time she gained full confidence and started walking with support. After 4 weeks when her cast was removed, she was advised to undergo regular physiotherapy.
On her recent followup after 3 Months, she had near full painless movement of her left knee with full weight bearing without support.

Thus comminutted patella fracture can be treated conservatively if done properly under a trained hand.

Stay tuned for more such informative and inspiring cases.
