Anatomy And Shit

Question 0

Explain posterior drawer sign

Answer 0

Patient supines bend knee 90° – >

Increased posterior gliding of tibia = PCL injury

Question 1

Explain the anterior drawer sign

Answer 1

Patient supine bend knee 90° – >

Increased anterior gliding of tibia = ACL injury

Question 2

Explain abnormal passive abduction

Answer 2

Patient supines -> knee extended/30° –>

Lateral/valgus force – >

MCL injury = medial space of tibia WIDENING

Question 3

Explain abnormal passive adduction

Answer 3

Patient supines – >knee extend/30° – >

Medial/varus force – >

LCL injury = Lateral space widening of tibia

Question 4

Explain the McMurray test

Answer 4

Patient supine – >knee internally rotated ->
pain/popping = lateral meniscal tear

Patient supine – >knee externally rotated ->
pain/popping = medial meniscal tear

Question 5

Explain the unhappy triad

Answer 5

ACL + MCL + medial meniscus DAMAGE

Sports injury = lateral force applied to planted leg

Knee pain

Which one is more common lateral meniscus injury or medium meniscus injury

Answer 6

Lateral meniscus injury

Question 7

Explain carpal tunnel syndrome

Answer 7

Entrapment of median nerve in transverse carpal ligament of wrist
– >nerve compression – >

Parasthesia pain numbness in distribution of median
