Q1 · Colles Fracture
NEET PGEasyExplanation
A Colles fracture is a distal radius fracture with dorsal displacement and angulation, producing the classic 'dinner-fork' deformity, typically from a fall on an outstretched hand. A Smith fracture has the opposite, volar, displacement.
Q2 · Scaphoid Fracture
NEET PGMediumExplanation
The scaphoid's blood supply enters distally and runs proximally (retrograde), so a proximal-pole fracture can devascularise the proximal fragment, risking avascular necrosis and non-union. Tenderness in the anatomical snuffbox is the classic sign.
Q3 · Supracondylar Fracture
HardExplanation
The anterior interosseous nerve, a branch of the median nerve, is the most commonly injured in supracondylar humeral fractures, classically causing a weak 'OK sign'. The brachial artery is also at risk, so distal pulses must be checked.
Q4 · Shoulder Dislocation
NEET PGEasyExplanation
Anterior dislocation accounts for the majority of shoulder dislocations, usually from abduction and external rotation. The axillary nerve may be injured, so sensation over the deltoid — the 'regimental badge' area — must be checked.
Q5 · Humeral Shaft Fracture
MediumExplanation
The radial nerve runs in the spiral groove of the humerus and is at risk in mid-shaft fractures, causing wrist drop, the loss of wrist and finger extension. Most such neuropraxias recover spontaneously.
Q6 · Clavicle Fracture
EasyExplanation
The middle third is the most common site of clavicle fracture. Most are managed conservatively with a sling; surgery is considered for open, significantly displaced, or neurovascularly compromised fractures.
Q7 · Monteggia Fracture
HardExplanation
A Monteggia injury is a fracture of the proximal ulna with dislocation of the radial head. A Galeazzi injury, by contrast, is a distal radius fracture with distal radioulnar joint dislocation.
Upper Limb Trauma sits within Orthopedics, which carries the same syllabus in both exams. This set runs to 7 questions, each tagged Easy, Medium or Hard, 2 of them at Hard, and 3 drawn from previous-year papers.
Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Upper Limb Trauma marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Orthopedics examiners keep returning to.
FAQ
Yes. Every question and explanation in this Upper Limb Trauma set is free and open — no login, no form and no payment. The explanation appears the moment you answer.
Upper Limb Trauma sits within Orthopedics, which appears in the same form in both syllabuses. Fractures, bone tumours and orthopaedic clinicals, a subject where named injuries and their complications carry the marks.
