Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has now spread widely after the outbreak since December 31, 2019. Guillain‐Barré syndrome is an immunological postinfectious neuropathy, which has been reported to be a rare but possible complication COVID‐19. We report a case of Guillain‐Barré syndrome associated with COVID‐19 in Nepal.
Open dislocation of the ankle and Epstein’s superior type of hip
dislocation are rare orthopedic injuries. We reported a case of 50 years
gentleman with a combination of these two rare orthopedic emergencies
without any associated fracture with the newly reported mechanism and
management to save limb and its function.
Open dislocation of the ankle without associated fracture is extremely rare. Epstein's superior type of hip dislocation is the rarest type of hip dislocation. We reported a case of 50 years Nepalese gentleman who presented with a combination of these two rare orthopedic emergencies with the newly reported mechanism of injury by a garden tractor. Early extensive debridement of the wound with broad spectrum antibiotics coverage, reduction with delta frame external fixator, and postoperative rehabilitation helps in saving limb along with its function.
