• Compartment syndrome
 Severe pain worsened on passive range of motion
 Pressure can be measured using a needle and pressure transducing
catheter system.
 Pressure > 30 mmHg cessation of blood flow through the
capillaries.
• stress fracture
 2nd, 3rd, 4th metatarsal are managed conservatively.
 5th metatarsal such as Jones fracture needs surgical
intervention.
• Colonic diverticula are most common in the sigmoid colon,
although most diverticula that bleed are in the right colon.
• Medial collateral ligaments.
 Bracing and early ambulation is the preferred treatment
 Surgery is rarely necessary.
• Dumping syndrome
 Postgastrectomy complication
 Patho
 Rapid emptying of hypertonic gastric content
 The fluids shift from intravascular space to the small intestine
 Release of intestinal vasoactive polypeptides
 Stimulatation of autonomic reflexes.
 Treatment
 Dietary changes—small and frequent meals and avoidance of
simple CHO
 In resistant cases—octreotide or reconstructive surgery should
be tried.

because the insufflated air or the tip of the endoscope can further extend
the rupture.

 More common in younger, women, Asians
 The thin epithelium overlying the bony growth tends to ulcerate
with normal trauma of the oral cavity and heal slowly due to a poor vascular

or interferes with speech or eating.

stenosis.
