  • Sacroiliac Joint Injury and Dysfunction: an Overlooked Cause of Low Back and Buttock Pain
    Sacroiliac Joint Injury and Dysfunction: An overlooked cause of Low Back and Buttock Pain. Author: Shannon P. Goossen, AP, LMT, CMTPT- 2003 The sacroiliac joint can be the cause of debilitating low back and buttock pain. It can additionally be the culprit of pseudo-sciatica, which was described by Smith- Peterson in 1926. Unfortunately, in as much as muscles are the “orphan organ” in the diagnosis of chronic pain, the sacroiliac joint is the “orphan joint” in the differential diagnosis of spinal disorders and low back pain. What is more disturbing is that in order to effectively treat SIJ injury and dysfunction, one must have an understanding of both myofascial and joint dysfunction. This could easily explain the controversy in evaluation, diagnosis and treatment. Fortunately, studies in the last decade have validated that the SIJ may be the primary pain generator in up to 30% of patients reporting low back pain below the level of L5 –S1 (Schwarzer, A et. al). Other studies and physicians treating SIJ have supported this conclusion as well. The sacroiliac joint is complex. It has the characteristics of a synovial joint with hyaline cartilage lining the sacral side of the joint, and fibrocartilage lining the ilial side of the joint. It is also defined as a synarthrosis and amphiarthrosis. It has more mobility early in life, and generally between 40-50 years of age, degenerative changes take place, and the joint stiffens in men and women. Although the actual amount of movement in the SIJ has been a source of controversy, up to 4 degrees of rotation and 1.6 mm of translation is expected in young adults (Vleeming et.

  • Marfan Syndrome: Jeffrey Welder MSIII, Erik L
    Marfan Syndrome: Jeffrey Welder MSIII, Erik L. Nylen MSE, Thomas Oetting MS MD May 6, 2010 Chief Complaint: Decreased vision and glare in both eyes. History of Present Illness: A 28 year old woman with a history of Marfan syndrome presented to the comprehensive ophthalmology clinic reporting a progressive decrease in vision and worsening glare in both eyes. She had been seen by ophthalmologists in the past, and had been told that her crystalline lenses were subluxed in both eyes. She had not had problems with her vision until recent months. Past Medical History: Marfan syndrome with aortic stenosis followed by cardiology Medications: Oral beta blocker Family History: No known family members with Marfan Syndrome. Grandmother with glaucoma. Social History: The patient is a graduate student. Ocular Exam: External Exam normal. VA (with correction): OD 20/40 OS 20/50 Current glasses: OD: 6.75+ 5.00 x 135 OS: -5.25 + 4.25 x 60 Pupils: No anisocoria and no relative afferent pupillary defect Motility: Ocular motility full OU. Anterior segment exam: Inferiorly subluxed lenses OU (figure 1 and 2). The angle was deep OU and there was no lens apposition to the cornea in either eye. Dilated funduscopic exam: Posterior segment was normal OU with no peripheral retinal degeneration . Course: The patient’s subluxed lenses led to poor vision from peripheral lenticular irregular astigmatism and glare. She was taken to the operating room where her relatively clear lenses were removed and iris sutured intraocular lenses were placed.

  • Shoulder Instability and Labral Tears
    P.O. Box 660 85 Sierra Park Road Orthopedic Surgery & Sports Medicine Mammoth Lakes, CA 93546 SHOULDER: Instability • Dislocation • Labral Tears The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, but to have this amount of motion, it is also less stable and more likely to dislocate than other joints. The shoulder works like a ball and socket joint, but the bones are much more like a golf ball on a tee. The socket is called the glenoid, and the ball is the upper termination of the humerus (arm) bone. The labrum is a ring of specialized soft cartilage (similar to meniscus tissue in the knee) around the rim of the glenoid. It helps to make the glenoid socket slightly deeper and makes the shoulder much more stable. The rotator cuff muscles are also very important for shoulder stability—they actively pull and compress the humeral head against the socket. Rehab of the rotator cuff plays a large part in the recovering from injury or surgery. In a younger person’s shoulder, the labrum is often torn away from the bone when the shoulder dislocates (the ball comes all the way out of the socket) or the shoulder subluxes (the ball comes partially out of the socket). The labrum can also be damaged or torn with repetitive overhead use of the arm such as in throwing, tennis, and rock climbing. Damage to the labrum can be painful by itself, but most of the pain and disability comes from abnormal motion when the shoulder is used. The shoulder can also be unstable due to ligament or capsular laxity (looseness) and not specifically from a torn labrum.

Young adults and adolescents who are active on sports activities are more prone to get this problem. The main cause of this disorder is because of the superior peroneal retinaculum avulsion from its insertion with fibular bone. We report a case of peroneal subluxation in a 19-year-old girl after twisting of the ankle one year back. She was initially treated with ankle splintage, rest and analgesics but her problem did not improve. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the ankle showed subluxation of the peroneal tendon and managed operatively.

  • Anterosuperior Dislocation of the Shoulder Joint in an Older Patient with Parkinson’S Disease
    Kobe J. Med. Sci., Vol. 54, No. 5, pp. E237-E240, 2008 Anterosuperior Dislocation of the Shoulder Joint in an Older Patient with Parkinson’s Disease TOKIO MATSUZAKI, TAKESHI KOKUBU*, ISSEI NAGURA, NARIKAZU TOYOKAWA, ATSUYUKI INUI, HIROYUKI FUJIOKA, MINORU DOITA and MASAHIRO KUROSAKA Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Kobe University Graduate School of Medicine, Japan Received 10 September 2008/ Accepted 17 December 2008 Key Words: anterosuperior dislocation, shoulder, trauma, Parkinson’s disease An 83-year-old woman, subsequently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, fell on her right shoulder. Radiographs showed the humeral head dislocated anterosuperiorly. The supraspinatus tendon was massively disrupted and judged irreparable. The subscapularis tendon was repaired, however re-dislocation of the humeral head was confirmed after the surgery but further treatment was rejected as she was almost pain free and had a low activity level. The patient was followed up for one year after surgery and her shoulder became almost pain-free, but range of motion with active elevation was limited. In such cases a goal of absence or reduction of pain rather than real repair might be considered appropriate. Traumatic dislocations of the shoulder joint are usually described as anteroinferior dislocations. Anterosuperior dislocations are extremely rare, since the coracoacromial arch prevents the humeral head from translating to the superior direction anatomically. We report a rare case of traumatic anterosuperior shoulder dislocation in an older patient with Parkinson’s disease and discuss its clinical manifestations. CLINICAL CASE An 83-year-old woman fell on her right shoulder. Five days after injury, she was referred to our hospital as the pain had not abated.
