4# Upper Limb Injuries

The document provides a radiologic overview of common upper limb injuries, including fractures and dislocations of the clavicle, shoulder, humerus, elbow, forearm, wrist, hand, and fingers. Examples given include fractured clavicles, sternoclavicular dislocations, shoulder dislocations, proximal humerus fractures, supracondylar fractures, elbow dislocations, distal radius fractures, carpal injuries such as scapholunate dissociation, Bennett's fracture, metacarpal fractures, phalangeal fractures, and tendon injuries. Diagrams are provided to illustrate many of the injuries described.
