Images of Last Week

guess who recently got much older!

What is it? A middle aged man with a solid arm mass and this x-ray. Looks abnormal, but I'm not sure what the diagnosis is. Maybe very advanced osteomyelitis...

Old fracture (a few years)

Traditional medical treatment for a little girl with an arm fracture. She was brought to us 2 weeks after the fracture with pus coming from the arm and  the whole forearm looked dead, but...

when I took off the dead skin she had new, growing skin underneath. I hope we don't lose the arm.

shoulder dislocation

Another case of traditional medical treatment. His arm had been wrapped tightly for two weeks and was infected. When his family finally brought him he was so septic that he died a few hours later.
