MCL / LCL Injuries MCL injuries are usually caused by a lateral to medial blow to the knee. Also known as a valgus force. LCL injuries are usually caused by medial to lateral blow to the knee. Also known as a varus force.
Slide 66-

Mechanism of Injury - direct blow from the lateral side (Valgus Stress) - severe rotation of the tibia - can be a combination of both MCL Injuries
Slide 67-

MRI OF MCL TEAR
Slide 68-

1st degree - ligamentous fibers are stretched - joint is stable during valgus stress test - little or no joint effusion - may be some joint stiffness and medial joint line tenderness - almost full range of motion MCL Sprains
Slide 69-

2nd degree sprain - partial tear of the ligament - slight to moderate laxity during valgus stress test - there is little joint effusion - moderate to severe joint stiffness with loss of ROM MCL Sprains
Slide 70-

3rd degree sprain - Complete tear - severe laxity revealed with valgus stress test - moderate joint effusion - loss of ROM MCL Sprains
Slide 71-

1st degree – RICE, Rehab to increase strength, ROM. 2nd degree – RICE, Immobilize, Crutch, 24 hours. Re-evaluate. Refer to physician 3rd degree – RICE, Immobilize, Crutch. Refer to physician Treatment of MCL Sprains

Assessing the Knee Joint
Slide 78-

HISTORY What did you feel, hear, …. Was there a pop or snap? Did you get hit by another player? Was your foot planted? Did this happen without being hit? Exactly where does you knee hurt, and be specific? Have you hurt this knee before, when, what was the injury?
Slide 79-

HISTORY When did you first notice the condition? Is there swelling or recurrent swelling? What activity hurts the most? Does it ever catch or lock? Do you fell as if the knee is going to give way, or has it already done so? Does it hurt to go up and down stairs?
Slide 80-

Observation Does the athlete have a limp, or is it easy to walk? Cant the athlete be full weight bearing? Is the athlete able to perform a half-squat to extension? Cant the athlete do up and down stairs?
Slide 81-

Testing for Knee Joint Instability Testing helps one get a better idea of the stability of the joint and an informed decision can be made about playing status. Many tests may point to ligamentous damage, while others will help detect meniscus damage. Knowing these test and how to perform them takes practice and time to understand the degrees of damage done to the knee.
Slide 82-

Test for patellar dislocations Positive sign is guarding, and pain. Patellar Apprehension
Slide 83-

Tests for torn meniscus Positive sign is popping, clicking or pain. Apley’s Compression/Distraction - Tests for torn meniscus - Compression signs same as McMurray - Distraction sign is reduction of pain. McMurray Meniscal Test
Slide 84-

Valgus and Varus Stress Tests Purpose: intended to reveal laxity of the medial and lateral collaterals. The athlete lie supine with the leg extended. Apply stress to the knee either medially or laterally
Slide 85-

Valgus Stress Tests The valgus examination in full extension tests the MCL, posteromedial capsule, and the cruciates. The exam at 30 degrees flexion isolates the MCL.
Slide 86-

Tests for MCL stability Positive sign indicates an injury to the MCL Test at 0 and 15 degrees Valgus Stress Test
Slide 87-

ppt slide no 87 content not found
Slide 88-

Varus Stress Tests The examiner reverses hand positions and tests the lateral side with a varus force on the fully extended knee and then with 30 degrees of flexion. With the knee extended, the LCL and posterolateral capsule are examined. At 30 degrees of flexion, the LCL is isolated.
Slide 89-

Tests for LCL stability Positive sign indicates an injury to the LCL Test at 0 and 15 degrees Varus Stress Test

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tests Anterior Drawer Test Lachman’s Test
Slide 92-

Anterior Drawer Test The tibia’s sliding forward from under the femur is considered a positive anterior drawer sign. If a positive anterior drawer sign occurs, the test should be repeated with the athlete’s leg rotated internally 30 degrees and externally 15 degrees.
Slide 93-

Anterior Drawer Test - Tests for ACL instability / laxity Positive sign is increase in anterior translation. (No end point) Special Tests

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tests Lachman’s Test: is considered to be a better test than the drawer test at 90 degrees of flexion.
Slide 98-

Lachman’s Tests The Lachman’s test is administered by positioning the knee in approximately 30 degrees of flexion. One hand of the examiner stabilizes the leg by grasping the distal end of the thigh, and the other hand grasps the proximal aspect of the tibia and attempts to move it anteriorly. A positive Lachman’s test indicated damage to the ACL
Slide 99-

Lachman Test - Test for ACL instbility/laxity Positive sign is increased anterior tibial translation. (No end point) Special Tests
Slide 100-

ppt slide no 100 content not found
Slide 101-

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tests Posterior Drawer Test: is performed with the knee flexed at 90 degrees and the foot in neutral position. Force is exerted in a posterior direction at the proximal tibial plateau. A positive posterior drawer test indicates damage to the posterior cruciate ligament.
Slide 102-

Posterior Drawer - Test for PCL instability/laxity Positive sign is posterior movement of the tibia. Special Tests
Slide 103-

ppt slide no 103 content not found
Slide 104-

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tests Posterior Sag Test: With the athlete supine, both knees are flexed to 9- degrees. Observing laterally on the injured side, the tibia will appear to sag posteriorly when compared to the opposite extremity if the posterior cruciate ligament is damaged.

Prevention of Knee Injuries To avoid injuries to the knee, the athlete must be as highly conditioned as possible, which means total body conditioning that includes strength, flexibility, cardiovascular and muscle endurance, agility, speed and balance. THE MUSCLES around the knee MUST be strong and flexible.
Slide 108-

Prevention of Knee Injuries Athletes participating in a particular sport should acquire a strength ratio between the quadriceps and hamstring muscle groups. Fro example: the hamstring muscles of football players should have 60 to 70 percent of the strength of the quadriceps muscles. The gastrocnemius muscle should also be strengthened to help stabilize the knee. Although maximizing muscle strength may prevent some injuries, it fails to prevent rotary-type injuries.
Slide 109-

Prevention of Knee Injuries Shoe Type: Cleat Length Astro Turf shoes: more grip=more injuries Sneakers are good for artificial surfaces
Slide 110-

Functional and Prophylactic Knee Braces Functional Knee Braces are used to protect grade 1 and 2 sprains of the ACL and MCL, and reconstructed ACL knees. Most of them are bilateral knee braces, meaning there is a hinge on both sides of the brace. These braces have an important part within the athletic community. They will also give the athlete confidence while playing.
