12
Q
description of tightness of the LCL in relation to motion
A
LCL is an anterior structure, and therefore tight in extension; loose in flexion

26
fall onto plantarflexed foot
PCL injury
27
fall onto dorsiflexed foot
patellar injury
28
mechanism that would make you think PLC injury
hyperextension, varus, and tibial external rotation
29
an ACL tibial tunnel that is too anterior
limits extension through roof impingement
30
an ACL tibial tunnel that is too posterior
PCL impingement
31
an ACL femoral tunnel that is too anterior
limits both flexion and extension
32
an ACL femoral tunnel that is too posterior
too lax in both flexion and extension
33
interference screw divergence
> 30* on the femur or 15* on the tibia decreases graft pullout strength
34
vertical ACL femoral tunnel
AP stability is fine but the rotational stability is not
35
this is the most sensitive view for revealing early OA
45* flexed standing PA
36
patellar tilt thresholds

45
position of the saphenous nerve during a medial meniscal repair
anterior to semi-T and gracilis; posterior to inferior border of sartorius
46
meniscal cysts occur with
horizontal cleavage tears of the lateral meniscus
47
to be effective meniscal transplants have to be
within 5% of the size of the native meniscus
48
this can be used to help determine candidacy for meniscal transplant
three phase bone scan; would show subchondral edema if present
49
this test is most sensitive for diagnosis of an ACL injury
lachman
50
this test is most correlated to outcome after ACL reconstruction
pivot shift testing
51
low long to avoid open chain after ACLR
6 wks
52
this risks damage to the infrapatellar br of saphenous in ALCR
use of transverse incision to get the HS autograft
53
12mm difference on this is indicative of PCL injury
stress radiographs compared to other side
54
grade one and isolated PCL injuries

56
single bundle PCL tensioning
90*
57
average distance between screws and popliteal artery during PCLR using tibial inlay technique
20mm
58
why does the most common MCL injury heal better than the others
most common is injury to the femoral insertion and proximal injuries heal better than distal ones
59
this is associated with higher failure rates in PLCR
varus malalignment
60
treatment for chronic PLC injuries
valgus opening osteotomy
61
incidence of vascular injury after knee dislocation
30-50%
62
frequency of resolution with OCD lesions
these resolve spontaneously in nearly all juveniles, 50% of adolescents, and no adults
63
threshold for microfracture
up to 4cm2?
64
displaced OCD, more than 3mm subchondral bone
ORIF
65

best candidate for lateral release PFS
extensive non-op obviously; neutral or negative tilt with 1 quadrant medial glide and 3 quadrants lateral glide
67
contraindication to distal realignment for patellar maltracking
TT-TG less than 20mm, yes, but also proximal arthrosis of the medial patellar facet
68
these tibial eminence fractures can be treated closed
displacement less than 3mm or elevation of less than the anterior half
69
these tibial tubercle fxs need surgery
displaced more than 5mm, immobilize in extension 6 wks
70
acute mgmt quad contusions
ice, overnight immobilization in 120* flexion
71
RTP after hamstring strain
when strength is 90% of the other side
72
what is sports hernia
groin pain from injury to adductor longus or abdominal wall, without classic hernia findings
73
etiology of sports hernia
combination of abdominal hyperextension and thigh hyperabduction
74
these can occur as the result of intense training of core muscles
ilioinguinal, obturator, sciatic impingements
75
when to IMN THE DREADED BLACK LINE
after 6 months of nonop if a tibial stress fx is present it is gettin the bizness
76
most specific test for stress fxs
MRI
77
why are labral tears a common cause of mechanical hip pain
they provide the lubrication for the hip joint
78
incidence of hip labral tears highest in this group
acetabular dysplasia
79
two things that can cause pincer impingement
inadequate femoral anteversion or acetabular protrusio
80
how to differentiate external and internal snapping hips
external (i.e. IT band snapping over the GT) does not need rotation like psoas impingement does
81
anterior hip scope portal danger
LFCN
82
anterolateral hip scope portal danger
SGN
83
posterolateral hip scope portal danger
sciatic nerve especially in ER
84
dorsal foot tingling worse with plantar flexion and inversion
SPN entrapment, where it exits the fascia 12cm proximal to fibular tip
85
this move can confirm subluxing peroneal tendons
eversion and dorsiflexion
86
two general rules about the mgmt of achilles ruptures
rerupture is less with surgery, complications are fewer with nonop
87
thresholds for diagnosing exertional compt syndrome
>20mmHg after 5 mins, or >30 after 1 min
88
this test can help differentiate intermittent calf pain and foot paresthesias
popliteal artery syndrome can mimic compt syndrome. Having the pt actively plantarflex the foot can occlude pop art.
89
ankle sprains usually, occasionally, and rarely involve which ligaments
usually the ATFL, sometimes the CFL, but rarely do they affect the PTFL
90
what do you have to have to get surgery for your ankle sprain
recurrent symptomatic instability, positive tilt, positive anterior drawer either by exam or xrays
91
why a high ankle sprain might get surgery
synostosis can occur with these and excision could be performed later
92

99
what is the rotator cable
thickening of the coracohumeral ligament present at the avascular margin of the rotator cuff
100
these two ligaments in the shoulder can be thought of as performing same action
SGHL and coracohumeral ligaments, as they both limit posterior translation with arm adducted, forward flexed, and internally rotated
101
five phases of throwing, and two with highest torque
wind-up, cocking, acceleration, deceleration, and follow-through. Late cocking and decel have maximal torque generation
102

115
% of asymptomatic tears that become symptomatic
50% within 3 years
116

120
more complications, hemi or RTSA for RTCA
RTSA more complications
121
functional results bt hemi or RTSA for RTCA
RTSA more predictable
122
can occur after procedure that results in posterior capsular tightness and decreased internal rotation
subcoracoid impingement
123
mineralization of the posterior inferior glenoid
bennett lesion, seen in internal impingement
124
athletic etiology for internal impingement
external rotation and anterior translation (throwing) leads to GIRD, which causes posterosuperior shift of the humeral head and results in RTC and posterosuperior labrum impingement
125
shoulder adduction and internal rotation weakness, palpable defect in a weightlifter
pec major rupture. Surgical repair
126
adhesive capsulitis mgmt
supervised PT, NSAIDS, +/- injections. Cures most within 12 weeks

pec major
133
transfer done for lateral scapular winging
levator scapulae and rhomboids (Eden-Lange). spinal accessory nerve issue, trapezius.
134
maybe only radiographic sign of little leaguer shoulder
physeal widening
135
main muscle affected in tennis elbow
ECRB
136
why excessive resection avoided in mgmt of tennis elbow
puts LCL at risk
137
most common nerve injury associated with repair of distal biceps tendon rupture
LABC. Runs parallel to the cephalic vein in the antecubital fossa
138
two phases of throwing that stress the medial stabilizer of the elbow in flexion
the anterior band of the MUCL has high stress during late cocking and acceleration
139
this has high sensitivity and specificity for injury to the MUCL of the elbow
moving valgus stress test
140
who needs surgery for their MUCL rupture
only those high-level athletes that desire a return to sport
141
this is usually the first ligament disrupted in an elbow dislocation
the LCL
142
method for testing the elbow LCL
supinate the forearm, apply valgus and axial load. clunk at ~ 40* reduces the radiocapitellar joint (like pivot shift for the elbow)

clicking or locking in extension
144
