is medial or lateral meniscus tear more common
medial
is medial or lateral meniscus tear more common with ACL tear?
lateral
function of posterior oblique ligament
primary stabilizer against internal rotation and valgus from 0-30 flexion
+ dial test at 30 degrees only
isolated posterolateral corner injury
+ dial test at 30 and 90 degrees
PCL + posterolateral corner injury
MPFL attachments
origin: Schottle’s point (distal to adductor tubercle, proximal to medial epicondyle)
insertion: proximal third medial patella
origin of posterior oblique ligament
adductor tubercle
function of ACL anteromedial bundle
anterior restraint, tight in flexion
function of ACL posterolateral bundle
rotatory restraint, tight in extension
what does the Lachman and anterior drawer test evaluate?
ACL anteromedial bundle
what does pivot shift evaluate?
ACL posterolateral bundle
blood supply of ACL and PCL
branches of middle genicular artery and the fat pad
which ACL bundle originates proximal to the bifurcate ridge?
anteromedial
layer 1 of lateral knee
IT tract, biceps femoris
structures between layer 1 and 2 of lateral knee
common peroneal nerve
layer 2 of lateral knee
patellar retinaculum
superficial layer 3 of lateral knee
LCL, ALL, fabellofibular ligament
structure between deep and superficial layer 3 of lateral knee
lateral geniculate artery
deep layer 3 of lateral knee
arcuate ligament, coronary ligament, popliteus, popliteofibular ligament, capsule
layer 1 of medial knee
sartorius/sartorial fascia
structures between layers 1 and 2 of medial knee
gracilis, semitendinosus, saphenous nerve
layer 2 of medial knee
MPFL, POL, superficial MCL, semimembranosus
layer 3 of medial knee
capsule, deep MCL, coronary ligament
what’s the most anterior structure inserting on the fibular head?
LCL
what structure is the primary stabilizer of external tibial rotation?
posterolateral corner
main components of posterolateral corner
LCL, popliteus, popliteofibular ligament
what does the popliteus do?
internally rotates the tibia
where is the popliteal artery relative to the PCL
lateral and posterior
what ACL graft has the greatest tensile strength
quadrupled hamstring
how do you calculate insall-salvati ratio?
length of patellar tendon over length of patella
what happens in the pivot shift test
lateral tibia is subluxed in full extension (+valgus/internal rotation), IT band reduces tibia at 20-30 degrees of flexion causing a palpable clunk
gold standard meniscus repair
inside-out with vertical mattress
where are Bakers cysts usually located?
between semimembranosus and medial head of gastroc
most sensitive test for ACL
Lachmans
result of vertical tunnel in ACL
decreased rotational stability
result of anterior femoral tunnel in ACL
limited flexion
ACL innervation
posterior articular nerve (branch of tibial nerve)
acute management of quads contusion
cold compression and overnight immobilization in 120 degrees flexion
