Knee Tibia & Fibula Flashcards
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
- Subchondral sclerosis with loss of medial joint space (non-uniform loss of joint space)
- Subchondral cysts & small osteophyte on medial side
→ Degenerative Arthritis → OA or DJD of medial femoral tibial jt
Isolated degeneration of patellar-femoral joint should raise suspicion for what condition
CPPD (Deposition disease)
Genu varus (bowlegged) is associated with what conditon?
Degenerative joint disease
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
Spiking of tibial spine - DJD
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
Circle in back is not inter-articular loose body
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
- loss of joint space, osteophytes
Features of ____ include:
- Typically affects all 3 compartments of knee
- Soft tissue swelling & joint effusion
- Sclerosis absent or minimal
- Subchondral erosion & periarticular osteopenia
- Baker’s cyst can form in posterior medial knee
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Genu valgus (knock-kneed) is associated with what condition
Rheumatoid Arthritis
What condition is likely the cause of these findings of bilateral, symmetric uniform joint loss?
Rhuematoid Arthritis
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
Due to location at patello-femoral joint → CPPD
Features of ____ include:
- Chondrocalcinosis of hyaline cartilage & fibrous cartilage (meniscus)
- Involves patello-femoral joint first (also typically involves lateral femoral tibial jt before medial)
CPPD (calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease)
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
CPPD (hyaline cartilage)
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
- Uniform loss of joint space
- Inflammatory arthritis with associated degenerative changes → Septic Arthritis or Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis or Hemophilia if involving other joints in the body
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
What condition is likely the cause of these findings?
- Sheet like calcification in tissues → DDX: Dermatomyositis, SLE or sclerotoma
Features of ____ include:
- Overgrowth of epiphyses
- Squared inferior pole of the patella
- Widened intercondylar notch
- Increased soft tissue density around jointso
- Early degenerative joint disease & Osteoporosis
- Pseudotumor
Hemophilia
