ABFAS REVIEW FOOT exam Preparation
course is designed to reinforce clinical
knowledge and surgical principles necessary
for successful board certification.
Which of the follow is true of D
stump neuroma surgery?
A. Placed into a joint with motion
B. Toward weightbearing surface
C. Under tension
D.Into two intrinsic foot muscles
Acquired elevatus is seen after Closing base wedge osteotomy
which specific bunion surgery
procedure?
Which is the most common Postaxial
hyperdactyly variant?
What is the most common cause of a keloid High tension
formation postoperativelly? -treat with intralesional steroid injection, improves pain and
itching
, When does Wallerian degeneration occur? When a nerve is crushed or cut and the distal position of the
axon degenerates
T/F A complete transection or crushing F - must be reapproximated otherwise will not regenerate
injury of a peripheral nerve has potential
to regeneration with or without re-
approximation of the endoneurium
What is a Youngswick osteotomy? Hallux rigidus surgery
decompresses joint by translation of the metatarsal head
dorsally
What is the most common complication Lesser metatarsalgia
seen with a Youngswick osteotomy? -due to shortening
Excision of both sesamoids can lead to Hallux malleus
what? -lack of propulsive stability of the great toe
T/F The dorsal interossei muscles are F- bipennate
unipennate
What are the first symptoms and signs Neurologic
of local anesthetic toxicity? -numbness of mouth and tounge
-tinnitus, lightheadedness
-then confusion, seizures, potentially coma
Cut in what portion of bone is most Diaphyseal
common to result in troughing? -displaced cortices of bone to collapse into medullary canal
What is most common cause of failed Inadequate decompression
tarsal tunnel syndrome?
Mechanical alterations following a plantar Calcaneocuboid pain
fasciotomy can lead to what?
What is MC complication following ORIF of Post traumatic arthrits
displaced talar neck fracture?
T/F The first branch of the medial F --> first branch of the lateral plantar nerve
plantar nerve is baxters nerver
How much of the metatarsal is 0.5 of shortening
removed if ONLY the articular cartilage
is removed?
