But let's keep the blessings to a minimum.
I’ll defer to Paige’s doctors and coaches on that decision.
I know that Geno is being his usual sarcastic self because if he truly means it, what does it say about his coaching and or his recruiting of this team??
then defer to the doctors when you make a comment like "she is young she will heal quickly"
I read something similar. It makes Paige’s injury sound like a less severe case of this type of injury. I certainly hope so.Want your teeth to hurt:
- Tibial plateau fractures are complex injuries produced by high- or low-energy trauma. They principally affect young adults or the ‘third age’ population.
- These fractures usually have associated soft-tissue lesions that will affect their treatment. Sequential (staged) treatment (external fixation followed by definitive osteosynthesis) is recommended in more complex fracture patterns. But one should remember that any type of tibial plateau fracture can present with soft-tissue complications.
- Typically the Schatzker or AO/OTA classification is used, but the concept of the proximal tibia as a three-column structure and the detailed study of the posteromedial and posterolateral fragment morphology has changed its treatment strategy.
- Limb alignment and articular surface restoration, allowing early knee motion, are the main goals of surgical treatment. Partially articular factures can be treated by minimally-invasive methods and arthroscopy is useful to assist and control the fracture reduction and to treat intra-articular soft-tissue injuries.
- Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) is the gold standard treatment for these fractures. Complex articular fractures can be treated by ring external fixators and minimally-invasive osteosynthesis (EFMO) or by ORIF. EFMO can be related to suboptimal articular reduction; however, outcome analysis shows results that are equal to, or even superior to, ORIF. The ORIF strategy should also include the optimal reduction of the articular surface.

There is more, but I think you've had enough.
I’m pretty sure he was being both sarcastic and accurate. Niki was out of control against ND and Evina is not an obvious point guard. CW is not a point guard. Maybe DeBerry
Joking, joking , joking.
Not quite sure why you would object to an optimistic and hopeful comment, and try to characterize it is a medical opinion. But if you really want a medical opinion on how age impacts healing relative to bone fractures, here’s what the National Institute of Health has to say.
why would she red shirt when she can enter the draft next season?
I was thinking the same thing. Great minds etc. I had a close friend who jumped with excitement in a similar way, and tore his Achilles tendon!
Paige, her family, UConn and the medical staff will determine what is in her best interest. Rest assured, they will not seek guidance or input from the Boneyard.
And so much for our BY Holiday Inn Express doctors. I didn't see any mention of a "Tibia Plateau Fracture".
I'd agree, Hayven. Much of our attention will go to Dorka, Caroline and possibly others down the line until Azzi and hopefully Aubrey return, but I believe this is the time for Christyn and Evina to raise the level of their games.
