KNEE

Question 1

At end range flexion do you get IR or ER of tibia

Answer 1

IR

Question 2

What is the screw home mechanism

Answer 2

near end of extension the lateral compartment of the knee closepacks first (smaller and shorter AP diameter) while medial compartment continues to glide anteriorly creating conjuct tibial ER with full extension

Question 15

What is the glide for flexion and extension of the hip

Answer 15

no glide just pure spin

Question 16
