The "nope" files.

Quote:  33-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department after a motorcycle accident. Clinical examination of the intubated patient showed a hard, swollen, bluish scrotum and an externally rotated and slightly shortened left leg. Computed tomography (CT) of the pelvis revealed dislocation of the left hip and a three-part trochanteric fracture of the proximal left femur (Panel A, white arrow), with displacement of the femoral head and neck fragment into the scrotum (Panels A and B, yellow arrow). There were also fractures of the left anterior pelvic ring and acetabulum (Panels A and B, blue arrow) and open fractures of the right forearm and hand. The femoral head and neck fragment was retrieved by means of a direct scrotal incision (Panel C), and the fractures were treated with open reduction and internal fixation (Panel D). The patient had no urologic sequelae. After 8 weeks of limited weight-bearing, the patient was able to walk with a cane. There was no evidence of avascular necrosis of the femoral head on the 3-month follow-up CT scan. At 14 months of follow-up, a CT scan showed vital bone structure and still no avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and the patient was able to walk freely without a cane.

RE: The "nope" files.
If you could summarize this using common body part words. I am kinda confused as to what's happening here.

RE: The "nope" files.
It took me a bit to figure it out too.
The main thing is in panel A. Apparently, the ball joint of his left femur broke off and ended up in his scrotum, where the bottom arrow is pointing.

I think all my man parts just contracted into my stomach, and probably won't be dropping back for at least a week. Undecided

He got some of his leg bone stuck in his ballsack in a motorcycle accident.

RE: The "nope" files.
The whole ball part of the ball and socket bit of the hip joint fractured off, traversed the pelvis and fetched up in the happily very stretchy scrotum. The surgeon opened up the scrotum, yoinked the thing out, then reattached it to the top of the femur.

It's very cool.

Repeat the motorcycle accident backwards and everything goes back to where it was.

PRAISE JEEBUS !!!!!
