A

OA

27
Q

May see genu varus at knee

A

OA

28
Q

29
Q

MOI usually slight flexion, WB and some rotation

A

Meniscus

30
Q

Injury due to a non-contact rotational stress with foot planted and knee extended

A

ACL

33
Q

MOI is usually a falling on a flexed knee

A

MCL

35
Q

Varus force to knee MOI

A

LCL

36
Q

Patella alta, genu valgus and increased Q angle, excessive IR of femur on tibia, Tight ITB leads to what dysfunction
