Q. Which one of these animal names is not associated with surgical procedures or methods ?
a. Dog
b. Fish
c. Woodpecker
d. Cobra
Answer -
d
'Dog ear' is known complication of redundant skin when closing the amputation stump. The extra skin forms angular folds at both or single end of the surgical incision wound during closure. Special techniques can
be used to manage these features.
'Fish scaling' is important part of bone nonunion surgery. The multiple osteoperiosteal chiselling is done to raise small flaps over bone around nonunion site for bone grafts to incorporate better. Also referred as ' petalling'.
'Woodpecker drilling technique' is used in proximal humerus fractures when screws in head region are to be introduced. Drill is advanced slowly and then withdrawn and again forwarded to ensure subchondral bone is reached for better and strong screw placement. This technique also helps avoid joint penetration of drill or screw.
'Cobra plate' is a plate with shape resembling cobrahead. This is used in hip joint fusion and other surgeries. This is an implant and no method or surgical feature thus odd one out here
