66yo female with a IT hip fx with a h/o C-5 to occiput fusion 6months ago and virtually no ROM. Airway is otherwise favorable. Also has OSA (not overly obese) HTN, Chronic Pain Syndrome, severe anxiety (cooperation while awake is suspect), no cardiac workup since her neck fusion and this case were relatively emergent. She is currently nauseated with emesis basin on her chest. Plan is to open her hip in lateral position and take biopsies to rule out pathological fx. If no Mets then proceed with hemiarthroplasty.
