  • Pes Anserine Bursitis
    BRIGHAM AND WOMEN’S HOSPITAL Department of Rehabilitation Services Physical Therapy Standard of Care: Pes Anserine Bursitis ICD 9 Codes: 726.61 Case Type / Diagnosis: The pes anserine bursa lies behind the medial hamstring, which is composed of the tendons of the sartorius, gracilis and semitendinosus (SGT) muscles. Because these 3 tendons splay out on the anterior aspect of the tibia and give the appearance of the foot of a goose, pes anserine bursitis is also known as goosefoot bursitis.1 These muscles provide for medial stabilization of the knee by acting as a restraint to excessive valgus opening. They also provide a counter-rotary torque function to the knee joint. The pes anserine has an eccentric role during the screw-home mechanism that dampens the effect of excessively forceful lateral rotation that may accompany terminal knee extension.2 Pes anserine bursitis presents as pain, tenderness and swelling over the anteromedial aspect of the knee, 4 to 5 cm below the joint line.3 Pain increases with knee flexion, exercise and/or stair climbing. Inflammation of this bursa is common in overweight, middle-aged women, and may be associated with osteoarthritis of the knee. It also occurs in athletes engaged in activities such as running, basketball, and racquet sports.3 Other risk factors include: 1 • Incorrect training techniques, or changes in terrain and/or distanced run • Lack of flexibility in hamstring muscles • Lack of knee extension • Patellar malalignment Indications for Treatment: • Knee Pain • Knee edema • Decreased active and /or passive ROM of lower extremities • Biomechanical dysfunction lower extremities • Muscle imbalances • Impaired muscle performance (focal weakness or general conditioning) • Impaired function Contraindications: • Patients with active signs/symptoms of infection (fever, chills, prolonged and obvious redness or swelling at hip joint).

Valentini, G. De Fabrizio, G. Piovan Clinica Ortopedica e Traumatologica, Università degli Studi di Trieste, Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria “Ospedali Riuniti” di Trieste Abstract. The hallux rigidus, especially in advanced stage, has always been a challenge as regards the surgical treatment. Over the years there have been various surgical techniques proposed with the aim of relieving pain, correcting deformity and maintain a certain degree of movement. For some years we have addressed the prob- lem with the replacement metatarsophalangeal joint arthroplasty with Reflexion system. As far as our experi- ence we have operated and monitored 25 patients (18 females and 7 males) of mean age 58.1 years, operated with this technique from June 2008 to June 2011. It reached an average ROM of 72° (extension and flexion 45° and 27°) with a good functional recovery in 8 patients, and this articulation was good (50° - 40°) in 12 patients and moderate in 5 with a articular range from 40°- 30°. The clinical results, according to our experience, appear to be favorable, as even patient satisfaction is complete.

  • The Rheumatoid Thumb
    THE RHEUMATOID THUMB BY ANDREW L. TERRONO, MD The thumb is frequently involved in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Thumb postures can be grouped into a number of deformities. Deformity is determined by a complex interaction of the primary joint, the adjacent joints, and tendon function and integrity. Joints adjacent to the primarily affected one usually assume an opposite posture. If they do not, tendon ruptures should be suspected. Surgical treatment is individualized for each patient and each joint, with consideration given to adjacent joints. The treatment consists of synovectomy, capsular reconstruction, tendon reconstruction, joint stabilization, arthrodesis, or arthroplasty.

Synovial hypertrophy within the individual possible, for example, for the patient to stretch the thumb joints leads not only to destruction of articular supporting structures of a joint, causing a flexion, cartilage, but can also stretch out the supporting extension, or lateral deformity. However, instead of collateral ligaments and joint capsules. As a result, the adjacent joint assuming the opposite posture, it each joint can become unstable and react to the may assume an abnormal position secondary to a stresses applied to it both in function against the other tendon rupture.
