Name that syndrome and include diagrams for 67 pts

1- incurred in a clean injury, paralysis, loss of proprioception ( The ability to sense the position and location and orientation and movement of the body and its parts) distal to that injury and loss of pain preception distal to the injury but on the opposite side....

2-Typically seen in burst fractures of the verterbral bodies, there is a loss of motor function, loss of pain and temp sensation on both sides distal to the injury with preservation of vibratory and positional sense

3-occurs in the elderly with foced hyperextension of the neck in (rear end collision). There is paralysis and burning pain in the upper extremeties, with preservation of function in the lower extremeties

[Pk_#2]

Ha ha, I'm thinking of sutin real dodgy shall I say it? :thumbs_up

Yah I can't do research btw, I'm toooooo busy :BeRightBack:

burst fractures happen in severe trauama.. it isn't a dislocation...
this time around the questions aren't particularly hard.. i.e they are google(able) unlike what I usually put in here. I am surprised there are no takers yet..

 

[chacha_jalebi]

they sound so horrific :muddlehea

is any of them anterior cord syndrome? or is that more to do with spine hmmmm

 

[جوري]

Anterior Cord Syndrome yes... very good... but which one?....
and I agree they are horrific but there is always worst.. personally I think amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is as bad as it gets...

what syndrome do you have when you have a young woman in her 20's or 30's with high blood pressure and unilateral leg swelling?

The 'I ran too much and ate too much greasy food' syndrome? :-[ ok I'm sorry for ruining your thread but since you aint telling me off for spamming I'll go and do a search pronto insha'Allah

hmm has she got Deep vein thrombosis?

 

[جوري]

hmm has she got Deep vein thrombosis?

well technically yes.. it is May-Thurner syndrome due to an anatomical defect, which does predispose one to DVT.. still waiting on other answers.. but I am too annoyed now with two major system crashes on my new computer so I can wait...

 

[DaNgErOuS MiNdS]

from the little bit I can gather my guesses are;

1, is some kind of brain damage

2, spine damage

3, something like whiplash

????

I need you to name them syndromes.. so next time you see an elderly dude for instance who complains of burning sensation in his arms, and unable to move em but everything below the belly button is working fine.. you'd go aha.. step aside folks I know exactly what happened here.. and you can pain a sherlock like scenario for them, where he was trying to get away in his pick up truck after robbing a bank and had a rear end collision with a police car.. and name his malady

 

[DaNgErOuS MiNdS]

That requires way too much research and reading big pdf medical disappearing books.

 

[جوري]

No.. it doesn't under normal circumstance I'd agree, most of my previous Q's required some reading and research, but these I gurantee can be found with a simple google search.. someone already answered anterior cord syndrome.. the other two are of the same nature... =)
