Tutorial
Joshua is a 48-year-old man who suffered a motor vehicle accident while riding his motorcycle. Joshua was unable to stop in time at a red light and rear-ended into an SUV, causing him to be thrown from his motorcycle, landing on his right side.
He has a large laceration to the lateral thigh. He also notices some weakness to certain movements of his right lower extremity. He is taken to the trauma centre and the physical exam reveals that he is unable to dorsiflex his ankle, evert the foot, and extend the toes on the right side. All other muscles are normal. On sensory examination, it is noted that sensation is slightly impaired over the front of the leg and foot. An x-ray reveals that he has sustained a mid-femur shaft non-displaced fracture.
