knee Flashcards
tibial tunnel drilled too anteriorly
limit full extension and causes tightness in flexion
how to recognize PLC injury
increased external rotation (Dial test ) in 30 & 90 degrees of knee flexion
What we will see in c ray in chronic PCL inury
in X-ray, we will see medial & patellofemoral arthritis
What causes ACL tear
Tibial translation anteriorly while knee is in slight flexion and valgus
pathognomonic for an ACL tear in X-ray
Segond fracture (avulsion fracture of the proximal lateral tibia)
associated with ACL tear 75-100% of the time
What are the characteristics of miserable malalignment syndrome?
Three anatomic characteristics that lead to an increased Q angle include
- femoral anteversion
- genu valgum
- external tibial torsion / pronated feet
What are the bony factors that predisposed patellar instability
- patella alta (causes patella to not articulate with sulcus, losing its constraint effects)
- trochlear dysplasia
- excessive lateral patellar tilt (measured in extension)
- lateral femoral condyle hypoplasia
What are the soft tissue characteristics that predispose to patellar instability?
-dysplastic vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscle
- overpull of lateral structures (iliotibial band,
vastus lateralis)
That structures contribute to knee stability during flexion
medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) in first 20-30 degrees of knee flexion
patellar-femoral bony structures account for stability in deeper knee flexion
how calculate TT-TG
measures the distance between 2 perpendicular lines from the posterior cortex to the tibial tubercle and the trochlear groove
>20mm usually considered abnormal
What are the rocurenc rats of patllar dislocation
redislocation rates with nonoperative treatment may be high (15-50%) at 2-5 years

מה הוא מבחן פטלה חיובי
מחלקים את הפיקה ל4 חלקים (לאורך ) ומנסים לעשות הזזה לטרלית , כאשר זז יותר מ2 חלקים לטרלית חיובי
Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) origen and insertion
o: anterior and distal to the adductor
tubercle; or proximal to the attachment of the sMCL;
i: : junction of proximal and middle
thirds on the medial border of the patella as well as the
undersurface of the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscle
מהם הקלסיפקציה לפריקת Kennedy ברך
מבוססת על לאן פרק

2- פוסטריורי (בעל הסיכוי הגבוה ביותר לפגיע וסקולרית
3-לטרלית בדרך כלל פגיע בצולבות
4-plc מידיאלית פגיעה ב

what the Schenck Classification used for
KD I
Multiligamentous injury with the involvement of the ACL or PCL
KD II
Injury to ACL and PCL only (2 ligaments)
KD III
Injury to ACL, PCL, and PMC or PLC (3 ligaments).
KDIIIM (ACL, PCL, MCL) and KDIIIL (ACL, PCL, PLC, LCL).
KD IV
Injury to ACL, PCL, PMC, and PLC (4 ligaments)
Has the highest rate of vascular injury (5-15%)
KD V
Multiligamentous injury with periarticular fracture
