Q

what is the MOI of Trochanteric Bursitis

A
  • commonly the result of overuse rather than direct trauma

Q

what is evident upon PE of trochanteric bursitis

A
  • while lying down on the unaffected side, leg extended have pt flex hip
  • produces an aching pain over the lateral hip that is exacerbated by activity such as prolonged standing lying on the ipsilateral side, stair climbing, or running
  • pain is reproduced w/ external rotation and abduction and by resisted abduction
  • ITB tightness may be present

Q

what is the ober test

A
  • the patient lies in the decubitus position with the affected leg up

Q

what is the treatment of Trochanteric Bursitis

A
  • modify activity: do not flex/extend hip and less varus tension
  • IT band stretching
  • steroid injection
  • evaluate for other causes if conservative tx fails

Q

who does avulsion hip fractures occur in

A

-rapidly growing adolescent males -mm. stronger than growth plates

19
Q

injury to the iliac crest is what type of fracture

A

avulsion fracture

20
Q

what muscles originate off the ASIS

A

TFL

Sartorius

21
Q

what muscles originate off the AIIS

A

rectus femoris

22
Q

what type of contracture can cause an avulsion fracture

A

ballistic loading with eccentric contracture

23
Q

what is the cause/diagnosis of avulsion hip fracture

A

muscle strain or contusion

24
Q

what is the treatment of avulsion hip fractures

A
  • PRICE -crutch ambulation
  • stretch and strengthening after 2 weeks
  • return to activity with return of strength and function
25
what is a common history found in avulsion fractures (ASIS)
- a sudden contraction of the sartorius - forced contraction with knee flexed and hip extended (eg. before a kick-falls) - anterior lateral thigh parasthesias
26
what will be found during PE of Avulsion Hip Fracture at ASIS
- P.O.P @ ASIS - localized tenderness and/or swelling is noted and flexion and abduction of the tigh provokes symptoms - pain against hip flexion with knee extension
27
what do radiographs reveal for an avulsion hip fracture (ASIS)
- displacement of the ASIS is note - marked displacement is rare
28
what history is common for an avulsion hip fracture at the AIIS
-forced contraction "kicking" -groin pain
29
what is found on PE for an avulsion fracture at the AIIS
-P.O.P -pain against hip flexion with knee extension
30
what is the MOI of an avulsion hip fractures at the AIIS
- occurs after contraction of the rectus femoris with vigorous kicking - examination reveals local tenderness and swelling in the region of the AIIS and exacerbation with active flexion
31
ischial tuberosity fracture is common in what type of athlete
hurdlers
32
what history is common in an ischial tuberosity fracture
-stron hamstring contraction with hip flexed and knee extended \*suddent pain in buttocks "can't go on" -common in hurdlers
33
the ischial apophysis is the origin of the
-hamstrings and adductor magnus
34
what is the MOI for an ischial tuberosity fracture
- is a vigorous hamstring contraction with the hip flexed and the knee extended - in runners, this injury occurs most often in hurdlers
35
what is found upon PE on an ischial tuberosity fracture
- hip flexion with the knee extended will reproduce symptoms; thus, the presentation and examination are similar to a hamstring strain in an adult - P.O.P - pain with straight leg raise and resisted knee flexion
36
what history is present with hamstring strain
- occurs often in baseball and track -tight, poor warm-up, fatigue - fast contraction, extension of the knee
37
what is found upon PE of a hamstring strain
- pain with resisted knee flexion (use of hams against resistance) - P.O.P muscle belly - visible or palpable knot
38
what is the treatment for hamstring strain
- NSAIDS - PRICE - weight bearing so tolerated (bc can't sit so they use crutch) - E-stim - stretching bilateral - pool running - strengthening - isokinetic
39
what history is present with piriformis syndrome
- Benchwarmer's syndrome - trauma, prolong sitting, overuse - dull ache in mid-buttocks -pain walking up stairs - pain from either swelling or compression sciatic
40
piriformis syndrome may have what type of gait
Trendelenburg gait
41
what is a major cause of iliopsoas tendonitis/bursitis
-acute trauma and overuse resulting from repetitive hip flexion
42
what history is present in iliopsoas tendonitis/bursitis
- groin pain worse with activity - "snapping" with hip flexion
43
what is found on PE of iliopsoas tendonitis/bursitis
- pain with resisted hip flexion - P.O.P over pubic ramus lateral to neuro vascular bundle (NVB)
44
what is the treatment for iliopsoas tendonitis/bursitis
- steroids - injection, oral steroids - NSAIDs: naproxin, Naprosin, anaprox, ibuprofen, Lodine -modify activities -strengthening and stretching exersisess - E stim: galvanics, NNMS, MMES
