Critical Cases - Ankle dislocation!!
Editor:
It's an ice storm in South Jersey! Thirty-four (34!) patients present within 4 hours with slip and falls and a veritable menagerie of orthopedic injuries. You see a 29 yo male who everted his ankle on the sidewalk. There is an obvious deformity. Should we order an xray and then call the orthopedics resident? No! We're going to reduce, splint, and discharge this patient ourselves....
