Calcaneal Fractures
(A) Hard fall from a ladder on heel can produce comminuted fracture. Usually disabling because it disrupts subtalar (talocalcaneal) joint
Medial Meniscal Attachments
(Firm attachments - torn more frequently) -MCL -Semimembranosus through capsule -Few fibers from anterior horn from ACL
Genu Valgum
(Knock-knee) Frequently observed in children 2-4 years. -Persistence into late childhood could lead to deformity. -Eventually will lead to wear/tear on articular cartilages.
Lateral Meniscal Attachments
(Loose connections for mobility - less tears)-PCL-Variable attachment to ACL-Popliteus muscle-Posterior meniscofemoral ligaments
Fibular Bone Grafts
*-If long piece of fibula is removed, ability to walk, jump and run can be normal* -Fibula good option for bone graft because it's proximity to surface, length, and function as non-weight bearing bone Use it for: -Congenital bone defects -Replace segments of bone removed due to trauma/tumor
What to avoid in Non-Operative Rehab of PCL
*AVOID strengthening at deep flexion angles - PROTECT PATELLA *NO Isolated (OKC) hamstring strengthening - get plenty of it with other activities
Injury Variables: Open Fractures
- Impeding or preventing formation of Hematoma Delaying formation repair tissue Risk of infection
Movement of Meniscus: Flexion/Extension
-Menisci follow point of contact between femoral and tibial condyles -Move posteriorly in flexion (relative to tibia)-Move anteriorly in extension
Diagnosing ITBS
-Noble compression test- positioned with the knee at 90 degrees of flexion- pressure is applied at the proximal prominent part of the lateral femoral condyle as the knee is gradually extended +30-40 degrees with pain -(Rennes)-Creak test- patient stands on involved leg- as they flex to about 30 degrees- a creak will occur over the lateral femoral condye -Ober- tests itb length
Posterior Drawer Test
-PCL-Arcuate-popliteus complex-Posterior oblique ligament-ACL
Ottawa Ankle Guidelines
-Palpation that reveals tenderness over the medial malleolus, lateral malleolus, navicular, and/or base of the fifth metatarsal; -Inability to WB immediately following injury or during the clinical evaluation -Tenderness that extends 6 cm superiorly from the tip of either malleolus, not over the ATFL -Radiographs should be performed immediately if gross abnormalities are visualized
Treatment for Hip Dislocation
-Reduction (open vs closed) - surgically open. -THR revision (constrained liner) -Bracing (hip abd. brace)
femoral patella joint
-Sellar joint (saddle)-Modified plane joint
-Radial/Ulnar Styloid Process -Distal Radioulnar Joint

SHM: Last 20° of knee extension
During the last 20° of knee extension, anterior tibial glide persists on the tibia's medial condyle because its articular surface is longer in that dimension than the lateral condyle's.
Passive Movement Testing (end feels)
END FEELS Flexion = soft Extension = hard/firm (squishy if large effusion) ER in flexion = firm IR in flexion = firm
Movement of Meniscus: Rotation
ER (motion relative to tibia): lateral meniscus pulled posteriorly and medial meniscus pulled anteriorly(lateral meniscus moves 2x as much from extension to flexion because of femur ER) -Menisci injured when don't follow movement of femoral condyles and becomes wedged between femoral and tibial condyles
Greater Trochanter
ER and IR and feel movement
Arthrokinematics: Rotation
ER of tibia on femur, lateral femoral condyle moves forward over lateral tibial condyle, medial femoral condyle moves backwards

Result of Injury to Common Fibular Nerve
Loss of eversion of foot and dorsiflexion= foot-drop -While walking, foot drops and toes drag on floor Stepping Gait: -Impossible to make heel strike ground first -Patient has a high stepping gait - raising foot as high as necessary to propel foot forward and keep toes from hitting ground. -Foot comes down suddenly - a distinctive "clop" (no exentric lowering) Loss of Sensation: -Anterolateral aspect of leg -Dorsum of foot
Creep
Low-magnitude loads applied for long periods increase the deformation of connective tissue and allow gradual rearrangement of collagen fiber bonds (remodeling) and redistribution of water to surrounding tissues. Increasing the temperature of the part increases the creep and therefore the distensibility of the tissue.

Tissue elongated to resistance and held tension created in muscle during static stretching is approximately half that created during ballistic stretching "Static Progressive Stretching" - increase as comfortable.
Elastic range/linear phase
Tissue taken to end of ROM, collagen fibers straighten and some microfailure occurs. There is complete recovery from this deformation, and the tissue returns to its original size and shape when the load is released if the stress is not maintained for any length of time.
Stress/Strain Curve
Toe Region: Add stress and collagen fibers straighten Elastic Range: More stress and recoverable deformation occurs Plastic Range: Elastic limit reached and damage occurs resulting in release of heat (hysteresis) and new length when stress released. Necking: Weakening of tissue and less force needed for deformation. Total failure quickly follows.

Cam femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) occurs when the head of the femur alters the movement in the joint. Specifically, a less spherical femoral head alters the contact area within the joint (at the acetabulum).
ACL Injury
Can be torn when: -Tibia driven anteriorly on femur -Femur driven posteriorly on tibia -Knee joint is severely hyperextended
Supination/Pronation Limitations
Can use all the ones for DF/PF-SUPINATION: Varus tilt Dorsal glide of navicular Dorsal glide of cuboid ?PRONATION Valgus tilt Plantar glide of navicular Plantar glide of cuboid ?
Slipped Epiphysis
Children (10-17) Epiphysis of femoral head may slip away from neck because of weak epiphyseal plate. -Caused by acute trauma/repetitive microtraumas with increased shearing stress on epiphysis - ESPECIALLY with abduction and lateral rotation of thigh. -Often slips slowly and results in progressive coxa vara. INITIAL symptom: hip pain, referred to the knee.
Transverse Arch
Composed of: Cuboid, Cuneiforms and bases of metatarsals -Medial and lateral parts of longitudinal arch serve as pillars for it. -Tendon of Fibularis Longus crossing sole of foot obliquely helps maintain curvature of arch.

Hip Resurfacing Contraindications
FEMALE (especially during childbearing age) -Metal ions (chromium and cobalt negative impact on fetal development) -Poor outcomes with females (2x as likely to fx as male counterparts) OBESITY OSTEOPOROSIS SIGNIFICANT BONE DEFORMITY -Leg length discrepancy (LLD)>1cm -Neck/shaft angle <120 -Better correction with THR
Orientation of femoral and tibial condyles (retroversion/retroflexion)
Favor knee flexion-Retroversion: tibial condyles inclined posteriorly -Retroflexion: tibia bent to be concave posteriorly (allows for soft tissue mass in flexion)
Femoral Condyles
Feel shaft and where it starts to fan out
Tibiofemoral Joint: Rolling & Sliding
Femoral articulating surfaces larger than tibial articulating surfaces. -When femoral condyles are moving on tibial condyles (weight-bearing situation), femoral condyles must roll and slide to remain on tibia

Goal: -Pain reduction -Reduction of inflammation Treatment-Activity modification-Ice-NSAIDS-Corticosteroid injection of severe pain or swelling
*Palpation of Femoral Artery*
Femoral pulse is palpated: -With person lying supine -Femoral artery begins at inguinal ligament. -Runs midway between ASIS and pubic symphysis. -Can be palpated just inferior to midpoint of this ligament. IF DIMINISHED - Might be lumina of common or external iliac arteries are partially occluded.
Potentially Lethal Misnomer
Femoral vein is NOT "Superficial Femoral Vein". "Superficial Femoral Vein" is a DEEP vein. Acute thrombosis of this vein is potentially life threatening. DO NOT USE "Superficial".
Fibularis Brevis Tendon
Fibularis longus on outside and brevis on inside
Sural Nerve
Formed by union of branches from: -Tibial Nerve -Common Fibular Nerve Sometimes they don't join and no Sural Nerve forms. In this case, skin is supplied by TIbial and Fibular branches. PATH: -Accompanies Small Saphenous vein. -Enters foot posterior to lateral malleolus. SUPPLIES: Skin along lateral margin of foot -> lateral side of 5th digit.
Prepatellar Bursitis
Friction between skin and patella leads to bursitis. -If chronic, bursa become distended with fluid and forms swelling anterior of knee.

*Vastus Medialis Oblique*
Realigns patella medially Active through whole ROM -Arises from adductor magnus tendon -Innervated from branch of femoral nerve EMG recordings: Looking for 1:1 ratio of VL to VMO
WB Status if femoral stem revised
protective WB
Genu Varum
(Bow-legged) All pressure is taken by inside of knee joint. -Arthrosis-destruction of cartilages -Patella tendon moves laterally (to weight bearing line) when leg is extended. -Movement increased by pull of vastus lateralis -Children commonly appear bowlegged for 1-2 years after starting walking.
Pre-Op ACL
*GET FULL EXTENSION* -Want 0-120° -Walk up stairs -Normal gait pattern
Phalanges
*Middle and distal phalanges of 5th digit are often fused in elderly people. DO NOT DO JOINT MOBILIZATION*
Navicular
*Navicular tuberosity: important landmark for palpation*
Patellar Dislocation
*Nearly always lateral dislocation* -More often in women -Lateral dislocation is counterbalanced by medial, horizontal pull of VMO. -Lateral femoral condyle is mechanical deterrent to lateral dislocation.
*Sole Artery of the Foot*
*Prolific blood supply* -Arteries derive from Posterior Tibial Artery. -Divides deep to Abductor Hallucis to form: 1. Medial Plantar Artery 2. Lateral Plantar Artery (bigger because more area to cover) -Runs parallel to similarly named nerves.
Early Stance
*heel-strike, foot up 1. Subtalar Pronation: tibial IR, talar add, calc eversion 2. Midtarsal joint: unlocked 3. TMT: supination twist
Late Stance
*whole foot on ground 1. Subtalar Supination: tibial ER, talar abd, calc inv 2. Midtarsal joint: locked (in slight supination) 3. TMT: pronation twist-more rigid foot
Trendelenburg Test/Sign: NORMALLY gluteus medius contracts as soon as contralateral foot leaves floor - prevents tipping of pelvis.
+ = Pelvis of unsupported side descends Other causes: Fracture of greater trochanter Results in "Waddling gait" -lean away from unsupported side OR "Steppage gait": Lifts foot higher as it's brought forward.
4th layer of foot muscles

OA Risk Factors
-Age -Skeletal disorders 1. Legg-Calve perthes 2. Hip Dysplasia 3. Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis -Race - caucasian more likely -Previous injury -Overweight/Obesity
Hamstring Injuries
-Almost always proximal and medial -Violent exertion may tear part of proximal tendinous attachments of hamstrings to ischial tuberosity -Hamstring strains are twice as common as quad strains. -Usually accompanied by: Contusion Tearing muscle fibers Rupture of blood vessels Hematoma contained by dense fascia lata -Often turns black and blue days later.
Ankle Sprains
-Ankle is most frequently injured major joint. Sprains: Tearing fibers of ligaments *Nearly always inversion injury involving twisting of weight bearing foot*
Articular Capsule of Ankle Joint
-Anteriorly and posteriorly: fibrous capsule is thin -Each side supported by strong collateral ligaments -Superiorly: Attached to borders of tibia and malleoli -Inferiorly: Attached to talus
Specific Hip Injuries
-Anteroposterior compression= fractures pubic rami -Lateral compression or falls on feet from roof= fracture of acetabula -Avulsion fracture (of ischial tuberosity) occur in kids with sudden acceleration. These fracture occur at apophyses (bony projections that lack secondary ossification centers).
Common Pitfalls of Slings
-Arm/Elbow not correctly seated in sling -Shoulder strap too tight/loose -Sling position (too forward, too adducted)
Functional Progression (later) for ACL post op
-Ascend stairs -Descend stairs -Running - impact (usually 3-4 months )-Return to sport - jumping, agility, plyos
Functional Progression: Stairs for ACL
-Ascend stairs (extensors and flexors -Descend stairs (harder because extensors and flexors on slack & ALL QUADS - so go down with bad leg first)
Lateral Tarsal Artery (x)
-Branch of Dorsal Artery of foot. PATH: Runs laterally in an arched course beneath Extensor Digitorum Brevis. Then anastomoses with other branches such as Arcuate Artery. Creates part of Plantar Arch. SUPPLIES: -Extensor Digitorum Brevis -Underlying Tarsals -Underlying joints
Diagnosis/Treatment of Blood Clots
-Calf red, hot, swollen, sig. TTP (tender to palpation) -Doppler -IVC filter - inferior vena cava filter: wire mesh to catch embolism
Paralysis of Quadriceps Femoris
-Can't extend leg against resistance -Presses on distal end of thigh during walking to prevent inadvertent flexion of knee joint (hands on tibial tuberosity) CAUSE: Weakness of vastus medialis or vastus lateralis resulting from arthritis or trauma to knee
Proximal Humeral Fx PT (Hemiarthroplasty, TSA, Reverse TSA for 4 part fractures)
-Codman/pendulum exercises (in/out of sling) -Distal ROM: elbow flex/ext, forearm sup/pronation, wrist flex/ext, digit ROM/gripping -Shoulder PROM into FF in the scapular plane and ER -PROM: done by PT/family member *IF THERE IS A ROTATOR CUFF REPAIR- INITIATION OF ROM MAY BE DELAYED!*
Femoral Fractures
-Common in 60+ (especially women): 1. Intertrochanteric Fractures: Fracture between greater and lesser trochanter 2. Pertrochanteric fractures: through trochanters (often comminuted)
Fibular Fractures
-Commonly occur 2-6cm proximal to distal end of lateral malleolus. -Often associated with fracture/dislocation of angle. -Fracture of Lateral Malleolus: When slip and foot forced into excessive inverted position, tear ankle ligaments and avulse lateral malleolus.
Tibial Plateau Fracture Complications
-Compartment syndrome -Peroneal/Fibular nerve injury -Popliteal artery injury
Revision after multiple dislocations
-Constrained liner -Bigger head -Bracing
Rehab guidelines: Meniscus
-Control effusion -Activity modification - start slow -Quad re-education -Restore ROM-Functional progression (from earlier)
Hip and Thigh Contusions
-Contusion of iliac crest -> "hip pointer" injury. Bleeding from ruptured capillaries that then go into muscles, tendons and soft tissues. -"Charley Horse" - Cramping of thigh muscle due to ischemia (inadequate circulation) caused by direct trauma. Contusion/tearing of muscle fibers leads to rupture of blood vessels sufficient enough to form hematomas. Sometimes results in quadriceps tendon partial tear.
Fracture Healing divided by bone type
-Cortical bone of the shaft. -Cancellous bone of the metaphyseal region of the long bones and the small bones.
Leg Length Discrepancy
-Could be result of femoral fracture True Leg Length Discrepancy: -Measure ASIS to distal tip of medial malleolus. -Also measure ASIS to lateral femoral condyle (to determine if shortening is in thigh) Differences of 1.25cm are normal
Hip Joint Fatpad
-Covered with synovial membrane -Fills part of acetabular fossa not occupied by femoral head. -Malleable in nature so it can change shape to accomodate varying shape of head and movements.
Fibularis Brevis
-DEEP to Fibularis Longus -Has slip of muscle: Fibularis Tertius PROXIMAL: Inferior 2/3 of lateral surface of fibula DISTAL: Dorsal surface of tuberosity on lateral side of base of 5th metatarsal ACTION: Everts foot and weakly plantarflexes ankle INNERVATION: Superficial Fibular Nerve

Tributaries/Perforating Veins
-Diameter of tributaries remains same as they ascend leg. -Perforating veins contain valves that only allow blood to flow from superficial to deep veins. They pass through deep fascia at oblique angle so when muscle contracts the pressure increases inside deep fascia and perforating veins are compressed.
Meniscus Function
-Distribute WB -Increase joint congruency -Limit abnormal motions -Improve articular nourishment
ADLs for LE Injuries
-Donning/doffing brace (if applicable) -Dressing Dress the surgical LE first -Showering Instruct patient to shower with brace on (shower chair) Cover brace with cast bag Tub vs. shower, dry floor prior to entering -Toileting Raised toilet seat or bed-side commode
Resisted toe abduction
-Dorsal interossei -Abductor Hallucis -Abductor Digiti Minimi
3 Parts of Hip Bone (474N)
-Each part forms own primary ossification center.
Early ACL Rehab
-Early mobilization - sitting - other leg helps lift and lower it -Early WB - WITH LOCKED BRACE (need quad strength) Lock brace - WB, sleeping and SLR initially
5. Remodeling
-Excess material on the bone shaft exterior and in the medullary canal is removed -Compact bone is laid down to reconstruct shaft walls LONGEST PHASE
Complications of Fracture Healing: Non-union
-FDA defined nonunion as "established when a minimum of 9 months has elapsed since fracture with no visible progressive signs of healing for 3 months" -Every fracture has its own timetable (eg: long bone shaft fracture 6 months, femoral neck fracture 3 months)
Nerves of the Hip
-Femoral Nerve (anteriorly) -Accessory Obturator Nerve (anteriorly) -Obturator Nerve (inferiorly) -Superior Gluteal Nerve (superiorly/posteriorly) -Nerve to Quadratus Femoris (posteriorly)
Total Femur Replacement: Indications
-Femoral bone stock so deficient that standard revision implants can't be securely fixed in remaining bone. -Significant femur resection due to tumor/multi-trauma (Historically only option was trans-femoral amputation)
Femur Landmarks (Cont'd)
-Femoral condyles articulate with tibial condyles to form knee joint. -Anteriorly, femoral condyles merge at patellar surface and articulate with patella. -Medial epicondyle -Adductor tubercle
Reasons for Increased Q-Angle
-Femoral neck anteversion -External tibial torsion -Lateral displacement of tibial tubercle (SLIDES 648/649)
3. Callus formation
-Fibrocartilaginous callus forms -Granulation tissue (soft callus) forms a few days after # -Capillaries grow into the tissue and phagocytic cells begin cleaning debris
Principles of Fracture Treatment
-Fracture Stabilization -Restoration of anatomy -Preservation of blood supply

Abductors of the Hip
-Gluteus Medius (Superior Gluteal Nerve) -Gluteus Minimus (Superior Gluteal Nerve) -Tensor of Fascia Lata (Superior Gluteal Nerve)
Palpating Femur
-Head of femur: Can be felt deep to a point approx. 2cm inferior to midpoint of inguinal ligament. -Greater Trochanter: Responsible for shape of adult female pelvis. Posterior edge relatively uncovered. Should lie in line with center of femoral heads and pubic tubercles. *-Adductor Tubercle: Palpated by pushing thumb inferiorly along medial side of thigh until felt
4 Muscular Layers of the Foot
-Help maintain arches of foot (resist flattening) -Enable to stand on uneven ground -Little importance individually because fine motor controls of toes unimportant to most people.
Resting Position of the hip
-Hip flexed to 30° -Abducted to 30° -Slight ER (20°)
Hip Resurfacing vs. THR Procedure
-Hip resurfacing longer surgery time so more anasthesia. -Less drugs post-op. -Less LOS (length of stay)
Plantar Aponeurosis
-Holds parts of foot together -Helps protect plantar surface from injury -Helps support longitudinal arches of foot
Proximal Humeral Fx PT (with surgical intervention)
-Immobilization for 3-4 weeks -Codman/pendulum exercises (in/out of sling) -Shoulder PROM into Forward Flexion (FF) as tolerated, ER to 0 degrees, Abd per MD -Shoulder PROM into FF and ER performed in supine/semi-reclined position -AROM begins around week 6

-In LENGTHENED POSITION: # of sarcomeres increase to maintain optimal length-tension relationship. -In SHORTENED POSITION: # of sarcomeres decrease.
Maturation of Hip Bone
-In children - large parts of hip bone are incompletely ossified. -At puberty, 3 primary bones still separated by Y-shaped triradiate cartilage centered in acetabulum. -Primary bones begin to fuse 15-17 years old and completed 20-25. -5 Secondary Ossification Sites solidify towards end of range
vastus lateralis

1. Contract-relax (CR)
-Rangelimiting muscle is first lengthened to the point of limitation and back to resting state. -then pt performs isometric contraction of tight muscle(for 5 to 10 seconds) followed by voluntary relaxation of the tight muscle. -Limb is then passively moved into the new range as the range-limiting muscle is elongated. The golgi tendon organs lie in the tendon of a muscle that mediate the stimulation of inhibitory interneurons in the spinal cord that cause relaxation of that muscle's motor neuron.

Long Plantar Ligament
-Supports calcaneocuboidmetatarsal joints and lateral longitudinal arch (Calcaneus->cuboid and base of 2-4 MTs) The long plantar ligament lies superficial to the plantar calcaneocuboid ligament and the tendon of fibularis longus muscle on the plantar aspect of the foot. It runs from the anterior calcaneal tubercle to the ridge and tuberosity of cuboid bone, attaching to both of them. It also sends some superficial fibers towards the lateral four metacarpal bases. Therefore, the long plantar ligament spans almost the entire length of the lateral plantar aspect of the foot, reinforcing the plantar aspects of all the respective lateral foot joints, including the calcaneocuboid joint. It also prevents excessive depression of the lateral longitudinal arch of the foot during weight bearing.

-fracture medial/lateral malleoli & distal posterior aspect of the tibia
Feiss Line
-line between medial malleolus and medial aspect of 1st MTP -middle point is the navicular tuberosity Too high = Pes Cavus Too low = Pes Planus

In men, the Q angle should be less than 18 degrees with the knee in extension and less than 8 degrees with the knee in 90 degrees of flexion . A typical Q angle is 12 degrees for men and 17 degrees for women

4. PNF Stretching
integrate active muscle contractions into stretching maneuvers purportedly to facilitate or inhibit muscle activation and to increase the likelihood that the muscle to be lengthened remains as relaxed as possible as it is stretched. It is believed that when muscle fibers are reflexively inhibited through autogenic or reciprocal inhibition, there is less resistance to elongation by the contractile elements of the muscle

Grade 2: Broader region of point tenderness over the lateral aspect of the ankle, a painful limp if able to ambulate, and bruising and localized swelling due to tearing of the anterior joint capsule, ATFL, and surrounding soft tissue structures. Grade 3: Diffuse swelling that obliterates the margins of the Achilles tendon, inability to ambulate, and tenderness on the lateral and medial aspects of the ankle joint.
Operative Management of ACL
Graft choice -Patella tendon - central 1/3 of patella tendon .-Hamstrings (4 strand) - Gracilis/ST tendon -Allograft -
Saphenous Vein Grafts
Great Saphenous vein commonly used for coronary arterial bypass graft because: -Readily accessible -Sufficient distance occurs between tributaries and perforating veins -Wall contains higher percentage of muscular and elastic fibers than other superficial veins. -Rarely causes problems in lower limb because so many other leg veins. REASON: Used to bypass obstructions in blood vessels (intracoronary thrombus) PROCEDURE: Vein is reversed so valves don't obstruct bloodflow*
Importance of Sleep
HGH repairs muscle - secreted by pituitary gland during sleeping. Insufficient sleep decreases function of immune system.
Tibial Torsion Test Tibial Torsion Test 2
HIGH SITTINGVisualize axis of knee (through condyles and palpates axis of ankle through apex of malleoli) ANGLE: 12-18° lateral torsion UNDER = Toe in OVER = Toe out Tibial Torsion Test 2 SUPINE (can do prone)-Draw horiontal line on heel of tibial plane with patella -superior-Draw line from malleolar apicesANGLE: 12-18° tibial torsion

Subtalar Motion of Foot Flat to Push-Off
HS (little supination) -> Foot flat needs pronation Foot flat -> neutral then begin to supinate Supination/pronation twist at anterior/mid and posterior articulations
Great Saphenous Vein Info
Has 10-12 valves (more numerous in leg than thigh) -Valves located just inferior to perforating veins. -As it ascends receives numerous tributaries. -Accessory saphenous vein: If present, becomes main communication between great and small saphenous veins. Other major veins that drain into it: -Lateral and anterior cutaneous veins -Superficial circumflex iliac vein -Superficial epigastric vein -External pudendal vein
Veins of the Lower Limb
Have superficial and deep veins. -Superficial: In subcutaneous tissue -Deep: beneath deep fascia and accompany all major arteries. Both have valves (more numerous in deep veins)
Hip Resurfacing Indications
Hip Resurfacing Indications Similar to THR-Male-Age <55-Active-Good bone quality-OA with minimal femoral head deformity
Trimalleolar Fracture
If tibia is carried anteriorly the posterior margin of distal end of tibia is also sheared off by talus producing a "Trmialleolar Fracture". -Medial Malleolus -Lateral Malleolus -Posterior Lip of Tibular articular surface
Capsular Pattern (passive ROM) of the hip
In order of what is lost the most 1. IR 2. Extension 3. Abduction 4. Flexion 5. ER
Injury to Common Fibular Nerve
In superficial position around fibular neck so most likely nerve in lower extremities to be injured. -If knee joint is injured/dislocated it could stretch nerve. Severing nerve results in paralysis of muscles in: -anterior compartment (dorsiflexors of ankle) -lateral compartment (Evertors of foot)
Effects of Systemic Hormones
Increase Healing (if long-term use can decrease) -Corticosteroid -Growth hormone -Thyroid hormone -Calcitonin -Insulin -Anabolic steroids
Myofascial compartment syndromes
Increased interstitial pressure in a closed, nonexpanding, myofascial compartment that compromises the function of the blood vessels, muscles, and nerves. It results in ischemia and irreversible muscle loss if there is no intervention. CAUSES: fractures, repetitive trauma, crush injuries, skeletal traction, and restrictive clothing, wraps, or casts.
Pectoralis Major93
Inferior to medial shaft of clavicle -Sternal head: lift arm above 90 degrees and resist against flexion -Clavicular head: arm below 90 degrees and resist against extension (sternal and clavicular head)
Non-union: Internal vs. External Fixation
Internal fixation by intamedullary, or plates and screws (neck of femur most common) External fixation: ie Ilizarov (pierces through skin and slowly turn pins to increase distance
Management of PCL Injury
Isolated injury = rehab PCL avulsion = Acute repair Combined injury (PCL & MCL, LCL, PLC) = surgery Reconstruction - allograft, patella tendon
arcuate popliteal ligament
It is Y-shaped and is attached to the head of the fibula. From there it goes to its two insertions; one goes over popliteus muscle and attaches to the intercondylar area of the tibia, the other to the lateral epicondyle of the femur and blends there with the lateral head of gastrocnemius muscle. The arcuate popliteal ligament reinforces the posterolateral part of the joint capsule, and together with the oblique popliteal ligament, prevents overextension of the knee joint.
Instability Testing: Anteromedial Rotary Instability (Slocum Test)

3. Posterior Dislocations
MOST COMMON -Head-on collision causes knee to strike dashboard and dislocate hip when femoral head is forced out of acetabulum. -Sciatic Nerve may be injured. -May cause paralysis of: -Hamstrings -Muscles distal to knee -Muscles supplied by Sciatic Nerve
Shoulder Special Considerations
Many muscles attached to scapula so must stabilize. IF stabilized, only 120° of shoulder flexion.
Diagnosis of Achilles Rupture (mechanism of injury)
Mechanism of Injury -Sudden Acceleration or deceleration -Tennis; Squash; Basketbal l-Audible "pop" -Feeling like someone kicked them in the back of the ankle -Gait deviation -Pain, or no pain -Swelling around the calf and ankle-No strength + Thompson test Inability to stand on tippy toes
-Gluteus Medius -Gluteus Minimus
Medius: Abduct, IR Minimus: Anterior to PSIS, IR
Ballottement Test/ Patella Tap
More swollen knee Push on patella and if lots of fluid under, fluid will disperse. Push down and fluid exits either side of patella
Knee Injuries
Most common are ligament sprains -Occur when foot is fixes in ground and force applies against knee.
Tibial Fracture: Compound Fracture
Most common place to fracture is middle/inferior thirds. -Tibia most common bone for compound fracture and most common long bone to fracture. -Because it's so close to surface it has poor blood supply and often fracture through nutrient canal and take a long time to heal.
Hip Dislocation (with what surgery? Signs/Sx?)
Most common post-op complication -Post/lat approach -More common with revisions than primary THR -Precautions until soft tissue healing occurs. SIGNS/SX -Pain -LE in ER -LE is shorter than unaffected limb (dislocates outwardly and comes up and ER
THR Approaches - Posterior Lateral (cut & precautions)
Most commonly used.-Technically easiest .CUT: GluteusMaximus/Capsule PRECAUTIONS (6-8 weeks)-Hip flexion >90°-Adduction past neutral-IR past neutral
Cuboid
Most lateral bone in distal row of tarsus -Groove for tendon of fibularis longus muscle -Can feel on lateral side of foot
Purpose/Action of PCL
Most posterior structure in knee -Tightens during flection Prevents: -Anterior displacement of femur on tibia -Posterior displacement of tibia on femur -Hyperflexion
Platysma
Most superficial under jaw
Subcostal Nerve
ORIGIN: T12 anterior ramus COURSE: Descends iliac crest toward ASIS and enters superolateral part of thigh. DISTRIBUTION: Skin of hip region inferior to anterior part of iliac crest and anterior to greater trochanter
THR Approaches - Lateral (cut & precautions) ?? - don't get precautions
NOT COMMON CUT: Gluteus medius/minimus/vastus lateralis -Increased incidence of post-op limp (trendelenberg gait) -Nerve/Vessel damage (superior gluteal nerve, femoral nerve/artery/vein) PRECAUTIONS -No extension -No adduction past neutral -No ER

Patellofemoral Syndrome
Pain deep in patella -Often results from: 1. Excessive running (especially downhill) - "runner's knee" 2. Repetitive microtrauma caused by abnormal tracking of patella with patellar surface of femur 3. Direct blow to patella 4. Osteoarthritis of patellofemoral compartment (degenerative wear and tear of articular cartilages)
*Muscle/tendon rupture or tear:
Partial rupture tear = pain at region of damage when contract or stretch. Complete tear = muscle doesn't pull against injury, so stretching/contraction doesn't cause pain in muscle.

Knee Special Considerations
Position of hip influences flexibility of flexors and extensors. -Hamstrings and rectus femoris must be examined separately from one-joint muscles that affect knee motion.
tibialis posterior
Posterior Muscles of Leg (Deep Group) Origin: interosseous membrane, posterior surface of tibia inferior to soleal line, posterior surface of fibula Insertion: navicular tuberosity, cuneiform, cuboid, and bases of 2-4 metatarsals Innervation: tibial nerve (L4,L5) Vasculature: posterior tibial and fibular Action: plantarflexion and inversion
Ischiofemoral Ligament
Posterior portion of acetabulum - spirals up and over neck of femur (prevents excessive IR and extension as well)
Extend toes MMT
Primary Mover: EDL, EHL, EDB, EHBNERVE: Deep Fibular (L5-S1) POSITION: sitting - Stabilize MTs and look for active curling of toes RESISTANCE: Test each on dorsal side (can tell them to don't allow to push into flexion) PALPATION: EHL (lateral to anterior tib tendon), EDB (lateral malleoli - distal) SUBSTITUTION: PlantarflexionFlexion and then relax
Flex toes MMT
Primary Mover: FHB, Lumbricals, FDB, FDL, FHLNERVE: Med & Lat Plantar, Tibial (L5-S3) POSITION: sitting - Stabilize MTs and look for active curling of toes RESISTANCE: Test each toe on plantar side PALPATION: SUBSTITUTION: Dorsiflexion & inversion (passive)extension and then relax
Movements of Ankle: Plantarflexion
Produced by muscles in posterior compartment of leg. At this position, some rotation, abduction and adduction of ankle joint is possible.
Movements of Ankle: Dorsiflexion
Produced by muscles of anterior compartment of leg. Usually limited by passive resistance of triceps surae to stretching and tension in medial and lateral ligaments.
Reflex muscle guarding
Prolonged contraction of a muscle in response to a painful stimulus. When not referred pain, the contracting muscle functionally splints the injured tissue against movement. Guarding ceases when the painful stimulus is relieved.
Complication: Nerve Injury
Prolonged surgical time -Prolonged retraction -Positioning on OR table Usually transient but may be permanent LATERAL APPROACH = Superior gluteal nerve (gluteus medius weakness) ANTERIOR APPROACH = Lateral Femoral cutaneous nerve (superficial anterior/lateral thigh) POSTERIOR/LATERAL APPROACH - Sciatic/Obturator (rare)
Pronator Teres
Pronate while palpating distal to medial epicondyle
Lower Traps
Prone, arm at 140°, palpate T7-T12, patient lifts arm
Rehab guidelines following repair MENSICUS
Protection phase (4-6 weeks) -Limited ROM to 90° flexion (more strain post 90°) -WBAT w/ brace locked at 0° (avoid load) HOLD OFF on running/sports for about 4 months
Elastin Fiber
Provide extensibility. They show a great deal of elongation with small loads and fail abruptly without deformation at higher loads. Tissues with greater amounts of elastin have greater flexibility.
Reticulum Fiber
Provide tissue with bulk

Plantar Fasciitis: Rehab Interventions
Rehab Interventions Activity Modification NSAIDS Stretching Strengthening Taping Heel Cup Orthotic consult
Movement of Ankle Joint: Plantarflexion
Relatively unstable because trochlea is narrower posteriorly (lies relatively loose within mortise) -Most injuries of ankle occur in plantarflexion usually as a result of sudden, unexpected inversion.
Patellectomy
Removal of patella for a comminuted fracture. Results in quad needing more force to extend leg. -Recent developments can repair tendon after patellectomy.
Process of Bone Graft
Remove bone with: -Periosteum -Nutrient artery: So it will remain alive and grow when transplanted Remaining parts of fibula usually don't regenerate. -Transplanted piece: 1. Secured to new site 2. Restores blood supply of bone it's now attached to. 3. Healing proceeds as if merely fracture were at each of its ends.
Stress Fracture
Repeated loading + inadequate rest eg: Long distance runners, military boot camp, Common sites: Tibia Overtraining? Lack of recovery time? Cross training? Diet? ADVICE: "Active" rest = avoid impact, bike/walk/swim. CAM boot?
Brachioradialis
Resist flexion in neutral position
Resisted toe extension
Resisted toe extension -EDL and EDB -EHL -Lumbricals (IP joints)

*Sprain
Severe stress, stretch, or tear of soft tissues, such as joint capsule, ligament, tendon, or muscle. Frequently used for ligament injury. Grades: first- (mild), second- (moderate), or third- (severe) degree sprain.
Short-Term and Long-Term Goals FOR acl
Short term (2-3 weeks): -Decrease pain/inflammation -Getting to 0° extension -Flexion 0-110° -Eliminate quad lag -Normalize gait 4-6 weeks) -Ascend 6" step Long term: -Full ROM -Descend 8" step -Functional tests - hop test
Elbow Special Considerations
Should be done both pronated and supinated because several muscles cross elbow joint involved in these.

Ankle Special Tests: Anterior Drawer ANKLE
Stabilizing the tibia and fibula, the foot is held in 20° of PF while talus is drawn forward. TESTS: ATFL/Anterior capsule POSITIVE: >5mm motion of STJ compared to non-injured ankle, audible clunk. (if inverted too -
Conservative Treatment for Achilles tendonitis
Stretching and flexibility exercises.- gastrocs, soleus, standing calf stretch, strap stretch, Strengthening exercises- heel raises, band plantar flexion/ 4 way ankle progress to challenging balance, single leg stability, proprioception Ultrasound heat therapy. It improves blood circulation, which may aid the healing process. Deep massage. It helps you increase flexibility and blood circulation in the lower leg. It can also help prevent further injury.
Shoulder Abduction
Stretch Adductors -With the elbow flexed to 90, grasp the distal humerus. -Stabilize the axillary border of the scapula.
Shoulder Horizontal Abduction
Stretch Pec muscles Grasp the anterior aspect of the distal humerus. Stabilize the anterior aspect of the shoulder. Move the patient's arm below the edge of the table into full horizontal abduction.
Shoulder Extension
Stretch Shoulder Flexors Support the forearm and grasp the distal humerus. Stabilize the posterior aspect of the scapula to prevent substitute movements.
Digits Special Considerations
Stretch individually. Both individual fingers AND individual joints. Stabilize one and stretch the other.
Shoulder External Rotation
Stretch internal rotators -Towel under the distal humerus to maintain shoulder in slight flexion. -Table stabilizes scapula. Be careful of elbow.
Biggest difference between superior and inferior tibiofibular joint is _____
Superior tibiofibular has a synovial membrane (joint capsule).
HS -> Foot flat
Supination -> pronation Talocrural - DF-> PF
Heel Strike
Supination at subtalar talocrural - DF
Systemic Factors that can cause delay
Systemic factors: Metabolic Nutritional status General health Activity level Tobacco and alcohol use
Deep Infrapatellar Bursitis
Swelling between patellar ligament and tibia - superior to tibial tuberosity. -Swelling usually less pronounced than that associated with superficial prepatellar bursitis. -Enlargement here obliterates dimples on each side of patellar ligament when leg is extended.
Synovial Capsule of Knee Joint
Synovial capsule of knee joint more extensive than any other joint; thus synovial cavity of knee joint is largest joint space in body.
Baker's Cyst (Popliteal Cyst)
Synovial fluid escapes from knee joint and accumulates in popliteal fossa. -Becomes enclosed in membranous sac known as popliteal cyst. -In case of rheumatoid or DJD, if there is synovial effusion (escape of synovial fluid), popliteal cyst becomes distended and may extend inferiorly into as far as middle calf.
Synovial Membrane
Synovial membrane is loose and lines fibrous capsule. -Synovial cavity often extends superiorly between tibia and fibula as far as interosseous ligament of dital tibiofibular joint.
Arches of the Foot
Tarsal and Metatarsal ones arranged in longitudinal and transverse arches - add to weight bearing capabilities and resiliency. -Act as shock absorbers for: 1. Supporting weight of body 2. Propelling it during movement -Resilient arches of foot make it adaptable to surface and weight changes.
Articular surfaces of TMT Joints
Tarsals = ConvexMetatarsals = Concave 1st TMT: Base of 1st MT articulates with medial cuneiform 2nd TMT: Base of 2nd MT articulates with mortise of middle cuneiform and sides of medial and lateral cuneiform 3rd TMT: Base of 3rd MT articulates with lateral cuneiform 4/5th TMT: Bases of 4/5th MT articulate with cuboid
1. Iliofemoral Ligament
The iliofemoral ligament is a thick triangular ligament that lies on the anterior and superior aspects of the hip joint, and blends with the joint capsule. I ts proximal attachment is between the anterior inferior iliac spine and the acetabular rim. Distally, it attaches to the intertrochanteric line. The central part of this ligament is thinner compared with its outer bands, giving the ligament an inverted Y-shape. It is the strongest ligament in the body and functions to prevent hyperextension of the hip joint when standing.
Lateral Collateral Ligament
The lateral (fibular) collateral ligament is a strong ligament that originates from the lateral epicondyle of the femur, just posterior to the proximal attachment of the popliteus, and extends distally to attach on the lateral surface of the fibular head. As it attaches to the fibular head, the ligament splits the tendon of biceps femoris muscle in two. The lateral collateral ligament is found deep to the lateral patellar retinaculum, and superficial to the tendon of popliteus muscle, which separates the ligament from the lateral meniscus.
Effect of Rate of Stretch
The slower the rate of stretch, the greater the strain/elongation that occurred. The faster the rate, the less strain and greater chance of rupture.
Fascial Intermuscular Septa
Thigh muscles in 3 compartments: 1. Anterior compartment 2. Medial compartment 3. Posterior compartment (AMPLe thigh) Walls formed by 3 fascial intermuscular septa (only LATERAL INTERMUSCULAR SEPTUM is important) that arise from deep aspect of fascia lata and attach to linea aspera of femur. 1. Lateral intermuscular septum: Strong, extends from iliotibial tract to lateral lip of linea aspera and lateral supracondylar line of femur
Altered Mechanics with PCL tear
Tibia drops back and excessive force on PF joint with knee flexion
Movement of Tarsal Joint during end of stance phase
Tibia is ER and hindfoot is locked in inversion. Transverse tarsal joints also become locked.
-Tibial plateaus -Poles of Patella -Infrapatellar tendon
Tibial plateaus: each side of patella Poles of patella: superior/inferior of patella Infrapatellar tendon: distal end (fibrous band)
*Osgood-Schlatter Disease*
Tibial tuberosity usually forms by inferior bone growth from epiphyseal center at 10 y/o. -Separate center for tibial tuberosity may appear at approx. 12 y/o. -Disruption of epiphyseal plate at tibial tuberosity may cause inflammation of tibial tuberosity and lead to chronic recurring pain. -Especially prevalent in young athletes.

Full range without pain 1. Discharge vi. Pain and range remain the same, resistance is the limiting factor 1. Mobilization at limited range 2. Contract-relax techniques
Precautions if greater trochanter involved in revision
Trochanteric precautions (no active abduction, WB on leg, passive adduction) all about gluteus medius**.
1. Acquired Dislocation
Uncommon because hip is strong and stable. May occur during car accident when hip is flexed, adducted and medially rotated (limb when driving)
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)
Up and back to lateral femoral condyle-prevents anterior slippage -prevents excessive anterior translation of tibia on femur*has connection to medial meniscus
Patella Inferior/Superior Glide
Use webspace to move. More inferior than superior Inferior glide important for knee flexion.
Separation of Sciatic Nerve
Usually occurs halfway or morte down thigh. In 12% of people they separate as they leave the pelvis. -The tibial nerve passes inferior to piriformis -*Common fibular nerve PIERCES piriformis or passes superior to it*
Vastus Medialis Oblique (VMO) Insufficiency
VMO realigns patella medially. Only dynamic stabilizer active through whole ROM. -Arises from adductor magnus tendon. -Innervated from branch of femoral nerve - can be activated as single motor unit.
Valgus/Varus Effects on medial joint angle
Valgus position INCREASES medial joint angle POSTERIOR CALCANEUS -> Posterior midline Varus DECREASES medial joint angle
4. Anterior Dislocation
Violent injury forcing hip into extension, abduction and lateral rotation. -Femoral head is inferior to acetabulum. Often fractures acetabular margin.

WHY: ideal position of calcaneus on talus. For orthotics/taping, evaluate supination/pronation. PRONEPalpate medial and lateral talus. Swing calcaneus from max inversion to max eversion.Find where it is centered over calcaneus
Females more prevalent than males for ACL tear
WOMEN -wider pelvis -Increased flexibility -Less muscle -Narrower femoral notch -Increased genu valgum -Increased external tibial torsion
Pelvic floor activation
WOMEN: Stop flow of urine, squeeze tampon MEN: Stop flow of urine. Lift scrotum out of freezing water
Tibial Fracture: Boot-Top Fracture
When skiing at high-speed, fall with leg going over rigid ski boots. -Usually comminuted (many pieces) fracture at middle/distal third.
Effect of Gravity
When standing, bloodflow is reduced. -During exercise, blood received from superficial by deep veins is propelled by muscular contraction. -If valves are working - blood can't reverse direction. Deep veins are: -More variable -anastomore more frequently than arteries they accompany -Superficial and deep can be ligated with impunity if necessary.
SHM: Beginning of flexion
When the knee begins to flex from a position of full extension, posterior tibial glide begins first on the longer medial condyle.
Compartment Syndromes in the Leg
When there's a trauma, muscles in compartments hemorrhage, edema and inflammation can lead to increased pressure and compression in compartment. -SOLUTION: RICE or... -Fasciotomy (incision of a crural fascia) to relieve pressure.
Important Foot Joints: Subtalar Joint
Where talus rests on and articulates with calcaneus. -Synovial joint surrounded by an articular capsule attached near margins of articular facets. -Fibrous capsule is weak but supported by: -Medial Ligament -Lateral ligament -Posterior Ligament -Interosseous Talocaneal ligament
Calcaneofibular ligament:
a long band that originates from the apex of the lateral malleolus of the fibula, and extends posteroinferiorly to attach on a tubercle on the lateral aspect of the calcaneus.
Movement of Ankle Joint: Dorsiflexion
Wider, anterior part of trochlea moves posteriorly, spreading tibia and fibula slightly apart. This makes grip of malleoli strong. Spreading limited by ligaments that united tibia and fibula: 1. Strong interosseous ligaments 2. Anterior Tibiofibular Ligaments 3. Posterior Tibiofibular Ligaments 4. Tranverse Tibiofibular Ligaments

Compartment Syndromes
-Increased pressured within a fixed osseofascial compartment causing compression of muscular and neurovascular structure
Types of Stretching (4)
1. static stretching 2. cyclic stretching 3. ballistic stretching 4. PNF stretching
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome Contributing Factors
-Increased Q angle and dynamic valgus -Larger patellar tilt and sulcus angle -Lower peak torque for knee extension (abnormal patella tracking, altered patellofemoral joint loading) -Altered VMO firing (delayed onset of VMO compared to VL) -Greater hip adduction angles-Contralateral hip drop -Lower hip abduction and ER strength-WB: Relatively FIXED tibia ad patella on MOVING femur-Altered gluteal muscle activation
Disadvantages to Hip Resurfacing
-Increased risk of femoral neck fracture -Metal ion dispersal (need yearly blood tests) -Longevity not yet analyzed (only began about 15 years ago)
Possible Causes of Acute Exertional CS
-Increased volume/intensity -Uphill running (posterior compartment) -Poor biomechanics (overstriding, increased HS, Increased pronation, weak hip/core causing increased ground reaction forces)

Lateral Ligament Sprains
-Much weaker than medial ligament. -Occur in sports - running, jumping, basketball -Fibers of Anterior Talofibular Ligament (ATFL) torn during ankle sprains - partially or completely. Results in instability of ankle joint. Calcanofibular Ligament (CFL) may also be torn. -Severe sprains can fracture/avulse lateral malleolus
Injury to Adductor Longus
-Muscle strains of adductor longus may occur in horseback rider's. "Riders' bones": Ossification sometimes occurs in tendons of these muscles because riders actively adduct their thighs.
PFPS Treatment Strategies
-NSAIDs -Activity modification (no pain, stairs non-reciprocally, avoid prolonged sitting, stop running - bike/swim instead)-Alter running mechanics
4. Consolidation
-New bone trabeculae appear in the fibrocartilaginous callus -Fibrocartilaginous callus converts into a bony (hard) callus -*Bony callus begins 3-4 weeks after injury, and continues until firm union is formed 2-3 months later*

*Severity of Tissue Injury (Grades)
Grade 1 (first-degree). Mild pain at the time of injury or within the first 24 hours. Mild swelling, local tenderness, and pain occur when the tissue is stressed. Grade 2 (second-degree). Moderate pain that requires stopping the activity. Stress and palpation of the tissue greatly increase the pain. When the injury is to ligaments, some of the fibers are torn, resulting in some increased joint mobility. Grade 3 (third-degree). Near-complete or complete tear or avulsion of the tissue (tendon or ligament) with severe pain. Stress to the tissue is usually painless; palpation may reveal the defect. A torn ligament results in instability of the joint.
