26
Q

what nerve passes through the tunnel of Guyon

A

ulnar

when compressed = ulnar tunnel syndrome

27
Q

anterior interosseous nerve syndrome

A

a motor branch of the median nerve that branches between the 2 heads of pronator teres and run deep along the interosseous membrane - becomes trapped and causes compression

28
Q

posterior interosseous nerve syndrome

A

compression of the motor posterior interosseous nerve where it passes through musculotendinous radial tunnel - can cause paralysis of digit and thumb extensor mm’s

29
Q

softening/ breakdown of cartilage tissue on the underside of the patella causing anterior knee pain

A

chondromalacia patella

cartilage degenerates from maltracking of patella, abnormal Q angle, trauma to bone causing enzymatic digestion causing chondrocytes to break down

30
Q

what is jumpers knee

A

patellar and quadriceps tendinitis

31
Q

“runner’s knee” pain in and around patella from overuse, repetitive movements

A

patellofemoral syndrome

32
Q

inflammation of patellar ligament on tibial tuberosity - common in growth spurt - painful bump below knee

A

Osgoode schlatters

worsens w activity - from repititive stressed

repetitive traction pulls on the tubercle and the growth plate leading to inflammation in growth plate

33
Q

what structures are affected w radial nerve compression

A

finger and wrist drop

affects the posterior interosseous branch

34
Q

what structures are affected w a suprascapular nerve compression

A

pain and weakness in infra and supra mm’s

35
Q

what structures are affected w long thoracic nerve compression

A

serratus anterior - causing winged scapula

36
Q

what structures are affected w a median nerve compression

A

pronator teres mm
anterior interosseous
pain at flexor pollicis longus and abductor pollicis brevis

37
Q

what structures are affected w compression at the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve

A

burning in upper lateral thigh that can extend to knee

(meralgia paresthetica)

38
Q

neural tube defect due to lack of folic acid and failure of spinous processes uniting

A

spina bifida

39
Q

what are seronegative spondyloarthropathy disorders

A

a group of disorders characterized by lack of serum markers HLA-B27 causing inflammation of synovial joints

40
Q

what are the 4 seronegative spondyloarthropathy disorders

A
  1. Anklyosing spondylitis
  2. Reactive arthritis
  3. Psoriatic arthritis
  4. Arthritis associated w IBD
41
Q

crepitus, morning stiffness that improves later, herberden’s nodes

A

osteoarthritis

42
Q

how does AS affect the spine and which areas

A

inflammation in intervertebral joints, tendon and ligament insertion points, fibrosis of joint capsule

sacroiliac, achilles tendon, hips, shoulders, costovertebral joints

hyperkyphosis

43
Q

what is brittle bone disease called

A

osteogenesis imperfecta

44
Q

age related degenerative joint disease - cartilage degenerates from stresses on joints over time

A

osteoarthritis

proteoglycan levels drop

subchondral bone, bone spurs, osteophytes

form JOINT MICE (loose bits in the cavity)

45
Q

bone infection caused by bacteria

A

osteomyelitis

46
Q

Imbalance between bone deposition (bone making) and bone decomposition causing bone tissue to become porous

More bone is being decomposed then deposited making it weak / brittle

A

osteoporosis

47
Q

what are the 4 compartments of the lower leg

A

anterior
superficial posterior
deep posterior
lateral

48
Q

how is paget’s disease managed

A

bisphosphonates or calcitonin

complications = fractures, bow legs, kyphosis, mishapen skull, bone pain

49
Q

what are some pathological changes occurring in RA

A

non suppurative synovitis in joints leading to progressive destruction of the articular cartilage and inflammation of synovial membrane

vasodilation, increased permeability and forms exudate which causes red, swollen, painful joint

symmetrical / polyarticular

activation of T helper cells that produce cyokines then activate B cells to produce antibodies

50
Q
