These are two.

Just quick show and tell since we're done for the evening.
0:05
And um, lemme just get the history on this.
0:10
What is the history? I didn't bring my sheet.
0:15
Well, I know that I know what the history generally is.
0:18
I just don't remember the name and age and gender,
0:23
but the patient had dorsal radial sided pain.
0:27
Um, and this, this condition usually occurs
0:30
after a radial lister's tubercle fracture.
0:34
I've also seen it in athletes that do a lot of pronation
0:38
and, and supination.
0:40
Do you have the history on this one? Thank you.
0:43
This is 70 75. 75.
0:48
So this is a 60-year-old with pain in the hand
0:51
and dorsal radial aspect of the wrist with, with swelling.
0:55
It doesn't give you much information about the activity.
0:59
Um, the extensive reticulum is a bit thick,
1:03
but the process is really relegated around the EPL,
1:07
the extensor lysis longus compartment number three
1:11
as it goes over the back
1:12
or dorsal aspect of compartment number two,
1:16
the extensor carpi radiologist longus and brevis.
1:19
So it goes longest brevis. Longest brevis, and then longest.
1:23
So, longest brevis
1:25
and longest have collected together
1:27
to produce this focal area of inflammation.
1:30
This patient did not have a lister cubicle fracture,
1:34
so I suspect this is activity related
1:37
with thickening of the ulu.
1:39
And I wanted to show you one other one.
1:41
This is dorsal intersection syndrome, usually
1:44
between compartments three and compartment two.
1:49
And that can also occur in the forearm.
1:51
I think that's going to be 74. 76.
1:55
I was close like the trombones. There we go.
2:02
And something very similar occurs in the forearm
2:05
with the same, the same structures, uh, more proximally.
2:09
And here is your EPL
2:11
and there's your extensor carpi radialis long
2:14
and brevis with swelling in that, in that location.
2:17
So just something a little different to what your appetite,
2:20
uh, for the fingers tomorrow.
2:22
And we'll also be talking about entrapment neuropathy.
2:24
Any comments about these two quick cases?
2:27
Yeah, just the one comment that of these, you know,
2:30
one's proximal, ones distal, the proximal ones, something
2:34
to remember is that on the standard field of view,
2:37
you might not include this particular area in the forearm.
2:41
And so you may wanna consider if symptoms are that high
2:45
to extend the field of view
2:47
because, uh, I've seen a number of wrist exams
2:50
where you wouldn't be able
2:52
to diagnose this based on the field of view.
2:55
Well, you're, you're, you're so right.
2:56
And in my experience it's about 50 50.
2:59
Uh, I think more people, uh,
3:00
originally described the forearm intersection syndrome
3:04
and now people with MRI have recognized more frequently
3:07
that the hand intersection syndrome.
3:09
So I think, you know, they're both pretty evenly divided.
