Module 2 - ortho (mostly)
some of the classics
tendon lesions
tennis elbow
tender at common extensor origin at lateral epicondyle
pain exacerbated by resisted wrist extension
golfers elbow
tender at common flexor origin at the medial epicondyle
pain exacerbated by resisted wrist flextion
REST, NSAIDS, local corticostroid injections, physio, surgery
carpal tunnel
compression of medial nerve
middle aged- elderly women
common
symptoms worse at night
pain/parasthesia
wasting of thenar muscles
tinels and phalens test
surgical decompression, splints, corticosteroid injection
tenosynovitis
inflamation of the synovial lining of a tendon sheath
causes
inflammatory arthritis
trauma
clincial
pain at site
swollen tender and crepetations
REST, splinting, local corticosteroid injection
'patient releases triggered digit with other hand'
bursitis
olecranon
excessive friction at elbow
pain on flexion if septic
distended and tender bursa
aspirate to check for infection
infective = antibiotics
noninfective = steroid injection
trochanteric
located lateral to greater trechanter of femur
pain over effected trochanter, exacerbated by movement
physio, then steroids, then surgery
prepatellar/intrapatellar
kneeling jobs - common
hot red swelling, painful active knee extension
aspirate to exclude infection and gout
avoid serial aspiration
rest or if repeated surgical excision of bursa
dupuytren contracture
fibromitosis of the palmar facia
flection contractures of the metocarpalphalangeal and interphalageal joints > 1 finger
ulnar side more commonly effected
not painful
progressive or stable
positive table top test
surgery - palmar faciectomy
sports
knee
meniscus
medial more common than lateral
two methods
degenerative
older people
abnormal cartilage
traumatic
fine then injury
associated with ACL tear
4 types
bucket handle
radial
horizontal cleavage
flap/parrot beak
more peripheral = closer to vacular supply = more likely to heal
injury whilst playing sport
twisting
joint line tenderness
ACL
normally restrains anterior tibial translation and rotation
twisting injury in football or skiing
anterior draw test, lachman and pivot shift
RICE, physio, surgery
associated with immediate swelling - heamarthrosis
PCL
primary restraint to posterior movement of the tibia on femur
rare
road traffic accidents, goalkeepers injury
check distal vasculature
rehab to treat
collateral ligament
MCL
common
valgus strain (hit on outside)
opening up of joint on valgus stress
LCL
rare
varus strain (hit on inside)
physiotherapy and bracing
patella
prevented from dislocating by
large lateral femoral condyle
insertion of vastus medialis oblique and medial patella femoral ligament insertion
uncommon
habitual
young women
traumatic
sort, flexed knee, side impact
clinical
very painful
later - patella apprehension and J-sign
do an Xray
reduction and physio, pssibly surgery
shoulder
commonly dislocated
clincial
rugby player
loss of normal contour
papable glenoid
complete loss of movement
AXILLARY NERVE
98% anterior
posterior - light bulb sign
treatment
reduce dislocation then collar and cuff
physio
rarely sugery
reoccuranc e is commom
rotator cuff muscles
Supraspinatus
infraspinatus
teres minor
subscapularis
ankle
common, lateral more than medial
inversion = lateral ligament
talus tilts in varus
eversion = medial ligament
talus lilts in valgus
RICE treatment
peadiatrics
fractures
