RESUMEN. Introducción: la asociación del síndrome del túnel del carpo con tenosinovitis estenosante de la mano es muy rara, aún más, si es generada por un fibrolipoma a nivel del túnel del carpo. El estudio de imagen para detectar este tipo de lesiones en la mano incluye: desde una radiografía con proyección para el túnel del carpo, tomografía axial computarizada y resonancia magnética nuclear; pero éstos no se utilizan habitualmente para el estudio protocolizado del síndrome del túnel del carpo y mucho menos para los dedos en gatillo. Objetivo: el objetivo de este trabajo es reportar un caso en el cual se presenta la sintomatología característica de un síndrome de túnel del carpo, asociada a tercer dedo en gatillo, el cual se maneja con la liberación del nervio mediano por medio de un abordaje de mínima invasión, además de la polea A1. Caso clínico: la paciente persistió con ambas alteraciones y en la revisión secundaria se detectó bloqueo a nivel de la muñeca. Se intervino nuevamente a la paciente y se encontró una tumoración encapsulada, que midió 3.0 × 2.0 × 1.0 cm, con superficie externa lisa, blanquecina, de aspecto ovoide y consistencia blanda «ahulada». El estudio anatomopatológico la identificó como
Introduction: knee femoral condyle coronal fractures or Hoffa fractures are among the rarest fractures of the pelvic limb, being even more rare those of the medial condyle. The success in the management of these patients lies in the timely diagnosis and the consequent anatomical reduction of the femoral articular surface. Clinical case: the objective of this article is to present a patient with right medial Hoffa fracture, registered as a single case in the archives of our hospital. The patient was referred to us on November 2011, with a 10-day course after suffering a fall from horse ridding, presenting a forced varus mechanism and direct contusion of the right knee. He shows an anteroposterior and lateral knee X-rays showing a subtle solution of continuity in the coronal plane of the base of the medial condyle, corroborated with magnetic resonance imaging and was also associated with a non-surgical partial injury of both menisci and the anterior cruciate ligament. Surgical intervention was performed on 27 th /11/2011, through open reduction with a medial approach and internal fixation with 7.0 mm (x2) cannulated screws. The patient was discharged with early and continuous mobilization of the knee, deferring support and rehabilitation until the 6th week. He is currently a wandering patient, asymptomatic, with complete range of motion. Because respecting the extensor apparatus through a medial approach and the articular surface with cannulated screws, it was observed Fractura de Hoffa medial: reporte de un caso Medial Hoffa fracture: a case report
