42
Q

An instrumentation break typically occurs at the lower one-third of the fifth lumbar spinous.

A

Base posterior sacrum

43
Q

Motion palpation reveals a fixation on the fifth lumbar vertebra.

A

Base posterior sacrum

44
Q

Edema is found between the fifth lumbar vertebra and the first sacral segment.

A

Base posterior sacrum

45
Q

Sudoriferous changes are noted over the fifth lumbar vertebra and the first sacral segment.

A

Base posterior sacrum

46
Q

Sacral Compression Test may relieve Base Posterior Sacrum discomfort because it may be closing the L5 posterior open disc wedge (flexion malposition).

A

Base posterior sacrum

47
Q

Sacral Distraction Test may aggravate a Base Posterior Sacrum because it is increasing the L5 posterior open disc wedge even more (flexion malposition).

A

Base posterior sacrum

48
Q

The lateral lumbar x-ray will usually exhibit:

  • -A flexion malposition of the fifth lumbar vertebra on the sacral base.
  • -Sacral base George’s line is relatively posterior to the L5 George’s Line.
A

Base posterior sacrum

49
Q

The chief complaint is usually lumbosacral pain due to L5 – S1 facet syndrome.

A

50
Q

An instrumentation break will usually occur at the lower 1/3 of the L5 spinous.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

51
Q

Motion palpation reveals a fixation at L5.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

52
Q

Edema may be present between the L5-S1 segments.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

53
Q

Static palpation may reveal tenderness over an L5-S1 zygapophyseal joint or
transverse process, as well as the spinous of L5.

A

A

Apex posterior sacrum

55
Q

Kemp’s Test may be positive for facet syndrome.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

56
Q

Sacral Compression Test may aggravate _____ posterior Sacrum discomfort by further jamming the facets between L5 and S1.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

57
Q

Sacral Distraction Test may relieve _____ Posterior Sacrum discomfort by opening the jammed facets between L5 and S1.

A

Apex posterior sacrum

58
Q

The lateral lumbar x-ray will typically reveal:

  • -An increased sacral base angle (more than 45 degrees).
  • -A Ferguson Weightbearing Line that passes anterior to the anterior tip of the sacral base indicating hyperlordosis of the lumbar spine.
  • -An Acu-Arc Ruler radius measurement of less than 19 cm indicates lumbar hyperlordosis.
  • -An extension malposition of the fifth lumbar vertebra on the sacral base.
  • -A Van Akkerveeken line measurement exceeding 3mm indicates facet instability.
  • -An L5 discal angle greater than 15 degrees may be a predisposing factor for severe facet syndrome.
  • -A positive Macnabb’s Line. Macnabb’s Line is drawn across the inferior plate line of L5. Macnabb’s Line is positive when the tip of the S1 superior facet is visible above the inferior plate line of L5.
