- inflammatory arthritis affecting spine and large joints

58
Q

Osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease)

A

Noninflammatory, localized, progressive disorder involving deterioration of articular cartilages (cushion between the ends of bones) and subchondral bone remodeling, synovial inflammation, and formation of new bone (osteophytes) at joint surfaces.

A

Glenohumeral dislocation

63
Q

joint effusion

A

swelling from excess fluid in the joint capsule, here from rheumatoid arthritis

64
Q

tear of rotator cuff

A

characteristic “hunched” position and limited abduction of arm; occurs from traumatic adduction while arm is held in abduction, or from fall on shoulder, throwing, or heavy lifting.

65
Q

Positive drop arm test

A

used for rotator cuff tear; if the arm is passively abducted at the shoulder, the person is unable to sustain the position and shrugs or hitches the shoulder forward to compensate with remaining intact muscles.

66
Q

Frozen shoulder, adhesive capsulitis

A

fibrous tissues form in the joint capsule, causing stiffness, progressive limitation of motion, and pain.

67
Q

A

Inflammation and swelling of subacromial bursa over the shoulder cause limited ROM and pain with motion.

68
Q

Olecranon bursitis

A

A

Round, cystic, nontender nodule overlying a tendon sheath or joint capsule, usually on dorsum of wrist

73
Q

74
Q

Carpal tunnel syndrome

A

Pain along thumb and index and middle fingers and atrophy occur from interference with motor function from compression of the median nerve inside the carpal tunnel.

75
Q

Ankylosis

A

Wrist in extreme flexion with ruptures of wrist and finger extensors, caused by severe rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

76
Q

Dupuytren’s contracture

A

Chronic hyperplasia of the palmar fascia causes flexion contractures of the digits, first in the 4th digit, then the 5th digit, and then the 3rd digit. Note the bands that extend from the midpalm to the digits and the puckering of palmar skin.

77
Q

Conditions caused by chronic rheumatoid arthritis

A

o Swan-neck and boutonniere deformities
o Ulnar deviation or drift
o Degenerative joint disease or osteoarthritis
o Syndactyly
o Polydactyly

78
Q

Swan neck deformity

A

hyperextension of PIP joint and flexion of DIP joint

79
Q

Boutonniere deformity

A

the knuckle looks as if being pushed through a buttonhole

80
Q

Ulnar deviation or drift

A

Fingers drift to the ulnar side because of stretching of the articular capsule and muscle imbalance. Also note subluxation and swelling in the joints and muscle atrophy on the dorsa of the hands.

81
Q

Degenerative joint disease or osteoarthritis

A

characterized by hard, nontender, noninflammatory nodules, 2 to 3 mm or more.

82
Q

osteophytes (bony overgrowths) of the DIP joints are called

A

Heberden nodes

83
Q

osteophytes (bony overgrowths) of the PIP joints are called

A

Bouchard nodes

84
Q

Syndactyly

A

Webbed fingers are a congenital deformity requiring surgical separation

85
Q

Polydactyly

A

Extra digits are a congenital deformity, usually occurring at the 5th finger or the thumb

86
Q

Mild synovitis

A

Loss of normal hollows on either side of the patella, which are replaced by mild distention. Occurs with synovial thickening or effusion (excess fluid) as in RA.

87
Q

prepatellar bursitis

A

Localized swelling on anterior knee between patella and skin. A tender, fluctuant mass indicates swelling; infection may spread to surrounding soft tissue. The condition is limited to the bursa, and the knee joint itself is not involved. Overlying skin may be red, shiny, atrophic, or coarse and thickened.

88
Q

Post polio

A

Right leg and foot muscle atrophy as a result of childhood polio.

89
Q

Osgood-Schlatter disease

A

Painful swelling of the tibial tubercle just below the knee, from overuse injury that places traction and microtrauma on the bone

90
Q

Chondromalacia patellae

A

abnormal softening of the patella because of thinning and uneven wear

91
Q

Achilles tenosynovitis

A

Inflammation of a tendon sheath near the ankle (here the Achilles tendon) produces a superficial linear swelling and a localized tenderness along the route of the sheath.

92
Q

Chronic gout

A

Hard nodules (tophi) most often in the metatarsophalangeal joint of first toe. Tophi are collections of sodium urate crystals caused by chronic gout in and around the joint. Crystals are stong inflammation triggers that cause extreme painful swelling and joint deformity. They may erode through skin with a chalky discharge.

93
Q

Acute gout

A

Gout is a painful inflammatory arthritis characterized by excess uric acid in the blood and deposits of urate crystals in the joint space. Acute episodes are triggered by surgery, trauma, diuretics, alcohol intake.

94
Q

Hallux vagus

A

a common deformity from RA, is a lateral or outward deviation of the great toe with medial prominence of the head of the 1st metatarsal

95
Q

bunion

A

is the inflamed bursa that forms at the pressure point. The great toe loses power to push off while walking; this stresses the 2nd and 3rd metatarsal heads, and they develop calluses and pain.

96
Q

Hammer toes

A

o deformities in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th toes that include hyperextension of the metatarsophalangeal joint and flexion of the proximal interphalangeal joint

97
Q

Callus/Corns

A

(thickening of soft tissue) develop on the dorsum over the bony prominence from prolonged pressure from shoes.

98
Q

Plantar wart

A

Vascular papillomatous growth is caused by human papillomavirus and occurs on the sole of the foot, commonly at the ball and has small dark spots.

99
Q

Ingrown toenail

A

A misnomer; the nail does not grow in, but the soft tissue grows over the nail and obliterates the groove. It occurs almost always on the great toe on the medial or lateral side.

100
Q

Scoliosis

A

Lateral curvature of thoracic and lumbar segments of the spine, usually with some rotation of involved vertebral bodies.

101
Q

Functional scoliosis

A

is flexible; appears with standing and disappears with forward bending. It may compensate for other abnormalities (leg length discrepancy).

102
Q

Structural scoliosis

A

is fixed; the curvature shows both on standing and on bending forward. Note rib hump with forward flexion. When the person is standing, note unequal shoulder elevation, unequal scapulae, obvious curvature, and unequal hip level.

103
Q

Idiopathic scoliosis

A

hows at 10 years of age through adolescence during the peak of the growth spurt; usually not progressive and more common in girls.

104
Q

Herniated nucleus pulposus

A

The nucleus pulposus (the center of the disc) ruptures into the spinal canal and puts pressure on the local spinal nerve root, causing pain and inflammation. Usually occurs from strenuous activities (lifting, twisting, continuous flexion with lifting, fall on buttocks)

105
Q

Fibromyalgia Trigger Points

A

lower clavicle
second rib
lateral epicondyle
