Short Term Cutaneous Vascular Responses to Cold Water Immersion in a Patient with Distal Radius Fracture (DRF) and Cold Urticaria

We present a case of a 36 year old female working in fisheries lab with Distal Radius Fracture (DRF) and cold urticaria referred for hand therapy after the cast removal. Cutaneous vascular responses were observed before and after 5 minutes of cold water immersion (at 12 ºC) in the injured hand. Hives were observed on volar aspect of her forearm and dorsal aspect of her hand around 5 minutes after the period of immersion and did not subside till 10 minutes after immersion.

Chondroprotection Validation

Symptomatic OA is generally defined by the presence of pain, aching, or stiffness in a joint with radiographic OA. The age-standardized prevalence of symptomatic hand and knee OA is 6.8% and 4.9%, respectively, in Framingham subjects age ≥26 years. However, prevalence of symptomatic knee OA was 16.7% among subjects age ≥45 in the Johnston County Osteoarthritis Project, much higher than that reported in the Framingham Study. About 9% of subjects in the Johnston County study had symptomatic hip OA

Galeazzi- Equivalent Lesion: Report of a Case and Review of Literature

The pseudo Galeazzi equivalent lesion in children under study is about a case which associates a diaphyseal radial fracture and an epiphyseal detachment of the distal extremity of the ulna rather than a distal radio-ulnar dislocation. It concerns a boy of 16-years-old patient who was injured in sport (fall). Radiographs showed a fracture of the radial shaft, which is having an anterior angulation, and a Salter-Harris type II epiphyseal detachment of the distal ulna. We were unable to perform a closed reduction under general anesthesia due to the interposition of the periosteum at the fracture site.

Thus surgical management was the only option. It consisted of removing the offending periosteum and performing: firstly, the osteosynthesis of the radial shaft fracture with a plate, and secondly, the epiphyseal detachment with pins. After 10 months, we didn’t notice any bone growth disturbance, or any reduced mobility of the wrist. Nevertheless, we will continue the follow-up so as to monitor the bone growth disturbance of the distal extremity of the ulna.
