Q

What is Double Crush Syndrome?

A

multi level lesions along a peripheral nerve can occur. Presence of more pro lesion seems to render distal nerve trunk more vulnerable to compression

in carpal tunnel study - surgical release of double crush groups had poorer outcomes.

both entrapments may require treatment for optimal results.

47
Q

What are the 3 stages of Carpal tunnel syndrome

A

Based on severity
Stage 1 - numbness, pain and tingling. mostly at night, + relief w/ shaking hand
Stage 2 - symptoms also during day w/ prolonged positions/ repetitive hand movements. + weakness (pt reports dropping things)
Stage 3 - atrophy, shrinking of muscles. tingling may no longer be present d/t severe nerve damage

48
Q

Describe Bowstring Test for Sciatica

A

Pt supine. knee flexed 90 and placed on examiner’s shoulder. Examiner places fingers in popliteal space behind knee, apply pressure
+ test = tingling burning sensation in hip and buttocks

49
Q

What does SLAC stand for?

A

Scaphoid Lunate Advanced Collapse

50
Q

Describe what SLAC is

A

a condition of progressive instability –> advanced arthritis of radoiocarpal and mid carpal joints.

degenerative arthritis seen in chronic dissociation btwn scaphoid and lunate

51
Q

Describe the pathoanatomy of SLAC

A

chronic SL ligament injury –> dorsal intercalated segmental instability (DISI).
The scapholunate ligament no longer restrains articulation between the two bones –> scaphoid flexed and lunate extended
- scapholunate angle >70
- lunate extended >10 deg past neutral
Resultant SCAPHOID FLEXION and LUNATE EXTENSION –> abnormal distribution of forces across mid carpal and radoiocarpal joints & malalignment of concentric joint surfaces
Initially affects radioscaphoid joint and progresses to capitolunate joint.

52
Q

This classification describes predicatable progression of degenerative changes from radial styloid to the entire scaphoid facet and finally to the unstable capitulant joint, as the capitate subluxates dorsally on the lunate.

what is the key finding ?

A

Watson classification

key finding: radiolunate joint is spared (unlike other forms of wrist arthritis) b/c there is a concentric articulation between the lunate and the spheroid lunate fossa of the distal radius.

53
Q

Describe the Watson stages

A

Stage 1 - arthritis btwn scaphoid and radial styloid
Stage 2 - between scaphoid and entire scaphoid facet of radius
Stage 3 - between capitate and lunate

*radiolunate joint spared

54
Q

What is the peek-a-boo sign

A

heel pad seen easily from front w/ pt standing and feet pointing straight ahead.

Normally heel pad isn’t visible on medial side of the foot when viewed from the front b/c of valgus positioning of the normal heel (places heel pad behind normal hind foot)
