Case 001 — Question 1
📞 2:17 AM
You are the first orthopaedic resident on call.
A 24-year-old male has been brought to the Emergency Department following a motorcycle accident.
He complains of severe pain in his right leg.
Primary Survey (ATLS):✅ Airway patent
✅ Breathing adequate
✅ Circulation stable
✅ GCS 15/15
Secondary survey reveals:
• Closed injury to the right leg
• Marked swelling
• Unable to bear weight
• No other obvious injuries
An X-ray confirms a closed fracture shaft of the tibia.
The Emergency Physician turns towards you.
👨⚕️ “Doctor, what’s your first priority?”
Choose ONE:
A. Apply an above-knee slab
B. Request an urgent MRI
C. Perform and document a complete neurovascular examination
D. Schedule the patient for intramedullary nailing
👇 Comment only ONE option (A, B, C or D) before scrolling tomorrow.
No editing.
No Google.
Think like the surgeon on call.
Tomorrow, we’ll reveal the correct answer and see what happens next.
The best surgeons aren’t the ones who know every answer.
They’re the ones who ask the right question first.
