OITE - Sports Flashcards
(80 cards)
Tunnel malposition, if ACL loose extension and tight in flexion?
Femoral tunnel too anterior
Tunnel malposition, if ACL has blowout potential (ie tight in ext, loose in flexion)?
femoral tunnel too posterior
Tunnel malposition, if ACL has rotational instability?
Femoral tunnel too vertical (in coronal plane)
Where should the tibial tunnel be in line with, for ACL recon?
In line with anterior horn of lateral meniscus
Tunnel malposition, if having notch impingement?
Tibial tunnel too anterior
Tunnel malposition, if having PCL impingement?
Tibial tunnel too posterior
Prevention of ACL injury focuses on what?
- Biomechanics and neuromuscular training.
- Instruct to land more in flexion (rather than in pivot/valgus)
In biomechanical testing, which ACL graft has highest maximum load to failure?
Quadruple semi-T and gracilis tendons (ie hamstring) - 2400 N
What is maximum load to failure of native ACL?
2200 N
What exercise do you avoid in early ACL rehab?
Avoid open kinetic chain knee extension 0-30deg
Acute hemarthrosis in ACL “pop” injury, caused by bleeding from what?
Branches of middle geniculate artery
Pop with effusion in non-contact pivoting, has what likelihood of ACL injury?
> 60-70%
Most common bone bruise pattern in acute ACL tear?
- Lateral fem condyle (middle third)
- Lateral tibial plateau (posterior third)
What would you consider in irreparable cuff tears in young active patients?
Tendon transfers (latissimus) Fat atrophy is a bad sign
Prevalence of asymptomatic uff tears in patients > 60?
30-55% (half partial, half full-thickness)
What item on hx is poor indicator for successful non-op mgt, with cuff tears?
Night pain
What is avg med-to-lateral distance of supraspinatous tendon insertion at its footprint on GT?
14-16 mm
Anterior traumatic shoulder dislocation associated with which MRI finding most commonly?
Antero-inferior labral tear (soft tissue Bankart tear)
Older patient with shoulder dislocation, associated with what other injury?
Rotator cuff tear
Failure to recognize HAGL injury, can lead to what, in shoulder repair?
Recurrent instability
GLAD?
Glenoid labrum articular disruption
ALPSA?
Anterior labral periosteal sleeve avulsion
HAGL?
Humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament
TUBS?
Traumatic anterior shoulder instability
Traumatic Unilateral Dislocations with Bankart lesion requiring Surgery
