Objectives
• To gain a comprehensive understanding of
the osteology of the upper limb
• To understand and be able to discuss the
anatomy/anatomical relationships of the
upper limb (i.e., veins, arteries,
compartments, muscles)
• To understand the brachial plexus
• Apply the above to a case study of the
brachial plexus and medical imaging.

Swan Neck Deformity
A swan neck deformity
describes a finger with a
hyperextended PIP joint
and a flexed DIP joint.
IUSM-NW F12 35
How does this condition occur?
Conditions that loosen the PIP joint and allow it to hyperextend can produce a swan neck deformity of the finger.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common disease affecting the PIP joint.
The small (intrinsic) muscles of the hand and fingers can tighten up from hand trauma.
Various nerve disorders, such as cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, or stroke.
IUSM-NW F12 36
IUSM-NW F12 37
Mallet
Finger
IUSM-NW F12 38
How do these injuries of the DIP joint occur?
A mallet finger results when the extensor tendon is cut or torn from the attachment
on the bone. Sometimes, a small fragment of bone may be pulled, or avulsed, from
the distal phalanx. The result is the same in both cases: the end of the finger droops
down and cannot be straightened.
IUSM-NW F12 39
IUSM-NW F12 40
Boutonniere
Injury
Boutonnière deformity
(buttonhole deformity) is a
deformity in which the middle
finger joint is bent in a fixed
position inward (toward the
palm) and the outermost finger
joint is bent excessively
outward (away from the palm).
This disorder most often
results from rheumatoid
arthritis but can also occur
from injury (such as deep cuts,
joint dislocation, or fractures)
or osteoarthritis

A 34-year-old, African-American male, falls from the roof of a new
home under construction and lands on a cement boulder with impact on
the right, proximal one-third of the humeral diaphysis. Medical history
is significant for HTN, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia.
Examination in the ER is remarkable for BP 168/90; T 99.9; P 90; R 28.
Bone is evident topographically near the deltoid tuberosity, and there is
bleeding. Inflammatory response is active and there is decreased
ROM; flexor and extensor reflexes are intact. CT reveals shattered
humeral diaphysis with displacement. Surgical intervention is
consistent with internal fixation and bone grafting using osseous tissue
from the ilium ground and mixed with sea coral. The anterior and
posterior circumflex humeral arteries were noted to be intact, and were
clamped during surgery to facilitate repair. Three weeks post-surgery,
the patient complains of significant pain near the site of injury. MRI
reveals AVN of the proximal humeral diaphysis. Which of the
following selections best explains the patient’s condition?
A.
B.
C.
D.

nonunion of bone fragments
