TrEaTMENT/OuTCOME: The patient was admitted to the hospital and started<br />
on IV Vancomycin. Pain and nausea were treated symptomatically. An infectious<br />
disease consult was obtained and Daptomycin, ciprofloxacin, and Flagyl were started<br />
to additionally cover for enteric bacteria. Colorectal surgery was consulted, and they<br />
peformed a bedside incision and drainage. On day 3 of admission, the erythema had<br />
spread to the scrotum. The next day, the patient was taken for surgical debridement<br />
and drainage of a perirectal abscess. Following debridement, a diagnosis of Fournier’s<br />
gangrene was made. IV antibiotics were continued and the patient was discharged<br />
home on day 6 on oral ciprofloxacin and Flagyl, in addition to daily wet to dry dressing<br />
changes. He was able to return to play six weeks after discharge.<br />

Tackle<br />
Hamish A. Kerr. Albany Medical Center, Albany, NY.<br />
(No relationships reported)<br />
hIsTOry: 15 minutes into the 1st home game of the season, a 21 year old rugby<br />
player goes down in the center of the field. He does not get up. The athletic trainer and<br />
physician covering run on to evaluate. The player is in a great deal of discomfort, but<br />
cannot localize what hurts. He says he tried to get up but couldn’t weight bear on his<br />
right leg. Past Medical History: Acromio-clavicular sprain of his left shoulder. Denied<br />
any current medications and has no known drug allergies. He is a college student and<br />
this is his 2nd year playing rugby. He is a forward. He denied any contributory family<br />
history. On review of systems, he denied any back pain, or any paresthesiae in the<br />
lower extremity. He denied any trauma to his head, neck, or spine. He denied losing<br />
consciousness.<br />
PhysICaL EXaMINaTION (Er): BP 143/109, HR 64, RR 20; SpO2 100%;<br />
Height 175cm, Weight 94.35kg, BMI 30<br />
Generally he appeared in some distress. He was alert and oriented to time, place and<br />
person. His right leg was being held in a flexed position at the knee and hip. He had<br />
very large, muscular thighs. He had a palpable dorsalis pedis pulse. He was able to<br />
wiggle his toes on command. His sensory function of the distal right extremity was<br />
intact for light touch. Manipulation of his right thigh and hip provoked pain. He could<br />
flex his knee. There appeared to be deformity of his right buttock and the right leg<br />
appeared shorter than the left.<br />
dIFFErENTIaL dIaGNOsIs<br />
Fractured right femur<br />
Dislocated patella<br />
Dislocated right hip<br />
TEsTs aNd rEsuLTs: Patient was transported via EMS to the Emergency<br />
Department where initial X-ray imaging confirmed a posterior hip dislocation.<br />
FINAL WORKING DIAGNOSIS: Right Hip Dislocation<br />
TrEaTMENT aNd OuTCOMEs: The patient required conscious sedation with<br />
propofol and fentanyl to relocate the hip. He underwent computed tomography (CT) of<br />
the hip, confirming relocation and noting a small anterior, superior acetabular fracture.<br />
He was immobilized and maintained non-weight bearing. He was provided oral opiate<br />
analgesia. He was seen in follow-up at 48 hours and 3 weeks post-injury, when he was<br />
able to partially weight bear, had regained 90 degrees of hip flexion and 30 degrees of<br />
internal/external rotation. He understood he was not going to be able to return to rugby<br />
that season.<br />

hIsTOry: A 42-year-old woman injured her right hip while waterskiing. She waterskied<br />
with one ski on her left lower extremity. She rested her right lower extremity, not<br />
placed into the ski, posteriorly on the ski attached to the left foot. When performing<br />
a twisting motion while skiing, she felt a deep pressure in her right hip while<br />
keeping balance on the ski. She initially rated her pain as 4/10, having some success<br />
using conservative measures of oral anti-inflammatory medications (diclofenac)<br />
and anesthetic patches (lidocaine) in combination with physical therapy and home<br />
exercise program. No imaging was obtained during the course of her initial injury.<br />
Approximately six months later, she aggravated her right hip injury while snow-skiing.<br />
She reported a constant 6/10 deep aching hip pain. Her right hip pain especially<br />
worsened with exercise, so she then stopped exercising.<br />
