Orthopedics & Traumatology

[C.Alberto Ortega @albertoortegana]

👨‍⚕️👨‍⚕️ A 25-year-old man presents with progressive pain and swelling of the left wrist for the past 6 months. X-ray demonstrates marked osteolysis of the distal radius with progressive disappearance of the bone. Laboratory studies are normal, and biopsy rules out malignancy, revealing proliferation of lymphatic vessels.

✅️ No history of trauma.

What is the most likely diagnosis? 🩺🩺🩺

🔥 Difficult Diagnosis 🔥

Nothing fancy today. Just fundamentals that matter.

Lipohemarthrosis on a cross-table lateral knee radiograph equals an intraarticular fracture until proven otherwise.

In this case:

•The cross-table lateral shows a clear fat–fluid level.
•The AP view localizes the injury to the lateral tibial plateau.
•This is consistent with a Schatzker type II fracture.

Teaching point:

In acute knee trauma:
•Always obtain AP and cross-table lateral views.
•A non–cross-table lateral can miss lipohemarthrosis. Missing lipohemarthrosis means missing an intra-articular fracture.

Basic radiographs. Correct technique. High yield.

Surgeons often favor this technique for its ability to minimize visible scarring and provide strong tissue support.
