Very interesting and thought-provoking cases that make you think again considering the options.
Great to see that you enjoyed them! These are challenging cases. The faculty will create video responses to these cases over the next week or so...

Very Interesting Cases,...
Very Interesting Cases,...Good Learning
These cases are very interesting and much more for us working in poor countries with lack of means...sometimes no choice
Good cases,interesting polls, very practical
Interesting cases, the 12 year-old girl ,still has 2 years for growth, with high risk to AVN with piriform nailing, and limping due to GT entery nailing
It is a risk, but you could consider lateral entry nail. The trochanteric physis offers little to limb length.
The answers you see are what your peers think, they do not represent the correct answer.

Very nice clinical cases , thanks for your great efforts professors.
excellent cases which we encounter in our daily practise.
Look forward to hear the panel.
in the S.C fracture of elbow if there is no pulse but hand is pink 1 week post op and the X rays are satisfactory , should it ring the alarm bell ? or Collaterals have taken over for good.
Hi Shafat, if the hand is pink and perfused and the nerves are all working then no action needs to be taken.
This is a controversial case, and you will get a wide range of answers from non op (as it may remodel to an extent and you could do a corrective osteotomy later) to revision with open reduction.
A decision should be made in partnership with the parents and an appropriate conversation.

Hi Muwaffak, thank you for the kind words. You are with friend here. We are looking to develop and grow an orthopaedic community and you are part of it.
