ORTHOPAEDICS OSCE SIMULATOR
🦴 Orthopaedics OSCE Simulator — Case #2
Welcome back!
Today’s station is designed to test your clinical reasoning rather than your memory.
Station
A 68-year-old woman slips in her bathroom and is unable to bear weight on her right leg.
On examination:
  • The right lower limb is shortened.
  • The limb is externally rotated.
  • Tenderness is present over the groin.
  • Distal neurovascular examination is normal.
Your Tasks
  1. What is your most likely diagnosis?
  2. List three differential diagnoses.
  3. Which X-rays would you request?
  4. What classification would you use if your diagnosis is confirmed?
  5. Outline your initial management in the Emergency Department.
  6. What are the definitive treatment options, and how do they depend on patient factors?
  7. Name three important complications if treatment is delayed.
Rules
⏱️ Treat this like a real OSCE.
  • Answer in the comments.
  • Don’t Google.
  • Explain your reasoning where possible.
  • I’ll post detailed feedback and a model answer tomorrow.
Good luck!
