Foot packet review

when observing the knee during injury evaluation, the knee should be in_______ to relieve any strain on the joint structure

30 degrees of flexion

acute rupture of the achilles tendon is more commonly seen in individuals between the ages of

30 to 35

rotary capability of the tibia with respect to the femus is maximal at approximately _________ of knee_________

90 degrees, flexion

the unhappy triad involves the

Anterior cruciate, medial menisci, tibial collateral ligament

as stress is applied to the ankle during plantar flexion and inversion, which ligament is the first to stretch

Anterior talofibular

Which of the following limits anterior translation of the talus on the tibia?

Anterior talofibular joint

Name he following ankle ligaments part of the medial collateral ligament (deltoid ligament)

Anterior tibiotalar ligament, tibiocalcaneal ligament, tibionavicular ligament, posterior tibiotalar ligament

An athlete has received a minor blow to the head of the fibula. Which of the following might sustain a contusion from this blow?

Common Peroneal Nerve

a direct blow to the anterior shin can typically result in all of the following except

Fibular fracture can cause: anterior compartment syndrome, circulatory impairment to the foot, loss of dorsiflexion

The ____________ is the main body stabilizer during walking or running

Hallux- the big toe

The closed-pack position of the talocrural joint is

Maximum dorsiflexion the opened-packed position is plantar flexion

_______ is a sure sign of interdigital neuroma

Pain that is relieved when barefooted

the muscle that unlocks the knee from its close position is the

Popliteus

If this tendon ruptures, collapse of the midfoot and hyperpronation may be visible

Tibialis Posterior

deceleration and internal rotation of the tibia are primary mechanisms of injury for

anteromedial rotary instability

you suspect that an athlete has a patellar dislocation, which of the following should be preformed to evaluate this condition

apprehension test

death of tissue due to insufficient blood supply

avascular necrosis

an athlete has developed a synovial herniation in the popliteal space. this condition is termed

bakers cyst

the dynamic medial stabilizers of the knee include all but

bicep femoris include: semitendinosus, gracilis, vastus medialis oblique

the primary support for the medial longitudinal arch

calcaneonavicular ligament

a blow to the posterolateral aspect of the knee can contuse the

common peroneal nerve

after placing ice on an acutely injured knee, an athlete develops parenthesis down the lateral aspect of the injured knee. What might account for this?

common peroneal nerve paresthesia

the nerve that innervates the anterior compartment of the lower leg

deep peroneal nerve

with excessive dorsiflexsion and eversion, the talus is thrust laterally and can

fracture the lateral malleolus

Stretching the ______ helps decrease shortening of the plantar fascia

gastrocnemius

immediate swelling of the knee after acute injury usually indicates

intraarticular injury

all of the following signs and symptoms indicate a ruptured achilles tendon except

limps with the foot and leg internally rotated is a sign: excessive passive dorsiflexion, inability to stand on the toes, individuals hear or feels a popping sensation

Excessive or prolonged pronation in running, which leads to pain in the distal third of the medial tibial border not associated with a stress fracture, is typically

medial tibial stress syndrome

Larsen- Johansson disease involves all but which

occurs at the tibial tubercle involves: occurs at the prepubescent athlete, occurs at the inferior pole of the patella, occurs from excessive strain on the patellar tendon

________ is a condition often associated with a tight lateral retinaculum or a weak vastus medialis oblique

patallofemoral stress syndrome

after sustaining a blow to the anterior knee, a basketball player is unable to perform a straight leg raise of quad set. what injury do u suspect

patellar fracture

a minor blow to the fibular head can contuse the

peroneal nerve

__________ bursitis is often associated with running and cycling and is routinely aggravated by knee flexion

pes anserine

Sesamoid disorders, medial tibial stress syndrome, and achilles tendinitis are all associated with

pes planus

a highly specialized band of tissue on the plantar surface of the foot that provides support for the longitudinal arch

plantar fascia

the arcuate complex supports

posterior knee stability

several overuse injuries to the medial aspect of the foot and lower leg have been attributed to

prolonged pronation

Which of the following is not an intrinsic factor leading to metatarsalgia

repetitive jumping excessive body weight, valgus heel, and pes planus are factors

palpable pain just anterior to the achilles tendon indicates irritation to the

retrocalcaneal bursa

movement in which direction will isolate the anterior talofibular lig in an anterior drawer test

straight anterior movement with slight plantar flexion and inversion

often the medial meniscus can be injured in combination with a hamstring injury because

the medial meniscus is attached to fibers of the semimembranosus

the screw home mechanism occurs when the

tibia rotates laterally on the femur during the last degree of knee extension

a positive valgus instability test result at 30 degrees of flexion indicates injury to the

tibial collateral ligament

Which of the following is not a supportive structure for the plantar arches?

tibionavicular ligament

hyperextension of the MTP joint of the great toe is called

turf toe

atrophy of the __________ is nearly always evident in patellofemoral dysfunction

vastus medialis oblique

anteromedial instability indicates damage to all of the following structures except

vastus medialis oblique damage to: anterior cruciate ligament, medial capsular ligament, tibial collateral ligament

posterior knee swelling may indicate all but which

venous thrombosis indicate: bakers cyst, gastrocnemius strain, bicep femoris strain
