Pathology of the Musculoskeletal System
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Achilles Tendonitis signs and symptoms | aching or burning in the posterior heel, pain with increased activity, swelling and thickening in the tendon area, muscle weakness due to pain, morning stiffness |
Adhesive Capsulitis | insidious onset of localized pain often extending down the arm, subjective reports of stiffness, night pain, restricted range of motion in a capsular pattern. Avoid over stretching |
ACL sprain | Special test associated with ACL sprain - Lauchman, Anterior drawer test, lateral pivot shift test |
Congenital Torticollis | unilateral contracture of the SCM muscle. Lateral cervical flexion to the same side as the contracture, rotation toward the opposite side, and facial asymmetries |
Meniscus Tear | Etiolgoy - fixed foot rotation while weight bearing on a flexed knee S&S=catching or locking sensation special test=Apley's compression test, bounce home test, and McMurray test |
Osgood-Schlatter Disease | Repetitive traction on the tibial tuberosity apaphysis. S&S=Point tenderness over the patella tendon at the insertion on the tibial tubercle, antalgic gait, pain with increasing activity -Avoid squatting, running or jumping |
Osteogenesis Imperfecta | S&S=pathological fractures, osteopososis, hypermobile, bowing |
Hip Arhtroplasty | Anteriolateral=flexion, extension, lateral roation, and adduction Posterolateral=flexion, adduction, and medial rotation |

Flexed position decrease pain, and extension increases pain. Numbness, tightness or cramping | Spinal Stenosis |
Degeneration of the femoral head due to a disturbance in blood supply. Limp, trendelenburg gait, mild pain in groin, medial knee or thigh, decreased ROM in hip abd and IR, atrophy from disuse | Leg-Calve-Perthes Disease |
Abnormality in collagen gene. Fragile bones, scoliosis, kyphosis, short stature and hearing loss. NO STRETCHING | Osteogenesis Imperfecta |
Painful condition of abnormal calcification within a muscle belly | Myositis ossificans |
Mechanism of injury is a fall onto shoulder with upper extremity adducted or a collision with another individual | Acrominoclavicular and sternoclavicular joint |
Occurs with a fall onto an outstretched upper extremity | Proximal humeral fractures |
Direct trauma at the cubital tunnel, tracture due to laxity at medial aspect of elbow, compressin due to a thckened retinaculum or hypertrophy of FCU; Medial elbow pain and parasthesias in ulnar distrib. + tinel sign | Ulnar nerve entrapment |
Occurs within pronator teres muscle and under superficial head of FDS; gripping activities; aching pain with weakness of forearm mms abd + tinel's sign with parast. in median nerve distr. | Median Nerve entrapment |
Entrapment of distal branches (posterior interosseous nerve) occurs within radial tunnel as a result of overhead activiities and throwing; pain over supinator muscle and parast. in a radial nerve distrib. Tinel sign may be positive | Radial nerve entrapment |
Inflammation of extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus tendons at first dorsal compartent. | DeQuervain's tenosynovitis |
Pain at anatomical snuffbox, swelling, decreased grip and pinch strength | DeQuervain's tenosynovitis |
Fall onto an outstretched UE. Complications of median nerve compression can occur with excessive edema | Colles' fracture |
Characteristic "dinner fork" deformitiy of wrist and hand results from dorsal or posterior displacement of distal fragment of radius with radial shift of wrist and hand | Colles' fracture |
Patient is experiencing swelling, parasthesia and servere pain in lower leg. What is it and what is your respone? | Anterior compartment syndrome is a medical emergiency |
Entrapment of the posterior tibial nerve or one of it's branches within the tarsal tunnel | Tarsal tunnel syndrome |
Excessive pronation, overuse resulting in tendinitis of the long flexor and posterior tibialis tendon and trauma may cause what? | Tarsal tunnel syndrome |
Pain, numbness and paresthesias along medial ankle to plantar surface of the foot. Positive Tinel's sign | Tarsal tunnel syndrome |
Inversion of forefoot when subtalar jint is in neutral | Forefoot varus |
Eversion of forefoot when the subtalar jint is in neutral | Forefoot valgus |
