Received 2013 Feb 20; Accepted 2013 Jul 24. (2008) A meta-analysis examining clinical test utilities for assessing meniscal injury. On valgus stress radiographs, medial and lateral joint space width was measured parallel to the tibial shaft axis from the midpoint of the medial and lateral femoral condyles to the tibial plateau [6] (Fig. Down, C., Xu, Y., Osagie, LE. High tibial osteotomy and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty are surgical treatment options for unicompartmental knee arthritis; these procedures are indicated for patients who do not have severe arthritis in the lateral compartment. In seven knees (8%), the lateral joint space width measured less than 4 mm, but all these knees showed an Outerbridge Grade 4 in the lateral compartment. Campbell SE, Sanders TG, Morrison WB. Procedure: From a position of maximal flexion, extend the knee with internal rotation (IR) of the tibia and a VARUS stress, then return to maximal flexion and extend the knee with external rotation (ER) of the tibia and a VALGUS stress. Hegedus EJ, Cook C, Hasselblad V, Goode A, McCrory DC. 26. Studies of specificity and sensitivity have demonstrated varied values as a result of poor methodological quality[7] A recent meta-analysis reports sensitivity and specificity to be 70% and 71%. Considering the results of our study and those from the literature, the previously suggested cutoff of 5 mm joint space width [11] on stress radiographs does not appear to be an accurate parameter to predict intact cartilage. Procedure. Emerson, RH, Jr, Head, WC. 3. Swap hands and sides. Femoral offset is underestimated on anteroposterior radiographs of the pelvis but accurately assessed on anteroposterior radiographs of the hip. and Gill, HS. Please try again soon. This method can lead to increased variability of valgus force, which consequently might impair accurate measurements. Femoral offset is underestimated on anteroposterior radiographs of the pelvis but accurately assessed on anteroposterior radiographs of the hip. Same procedure/position as above except that an abduction or valgus force at the distal forearm is applied. Intraobserver and interobserver reliabilities for the grading scores also were evaluated by two independent blinded observers (WW, FB) for all radiographs. Elbow flexed 20-30 degrees. In UKA, the angular deformity should be passively correctable and soft tissue releases bear the risk of overcorrection and therefore should be avoided [8, 12, 13, 18]. For intraobserver reliabilities, grading and measurements were performed at two occasions separated by a minimum of 4 weeks. Hip-knee-ankle angle was expressed in degrees with 95% CIs. The practice of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the United Kingdom. This is spontaneous resorption of the disc without any surgical intervention. Eriksson K, Sadr-Azodi O, Singh C, Osti L, Bartlett J. The etiology of chondromalacia patellae. Pg 791. While palpating the medial joint line, the examiner should apply a valgus force to the patient's knee. official website and that any information you provide is encrypted To examine the medial collateral ligament itself, the valgus stress test which consists of two parts can be used. Valgus Instability Posttraumatic Valgus Instability: The increasing impact of arthritis on public health. Deschamps G, Chol C. Fixed-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: patients selection and operative technique. All ICMJE Conflict of Interest Forms for authors and Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research editors and board members are on file with the publication and can be viewed on request. As a library, NLM provides access to scientific literature. The anterior portion of the meniscus is not easily tested because the pressure to that part of the meniscus is not as great. Goodfellow, J., OConnor, J., Dodd, C. and Murray, D. 13. and Katz, B. Radiographic grading of the severity of knee osteoarthritis: relation of the Kellgren and Lawrence grade to a grade based on joint space narrowing, and correlation with arthroscopic evidence of articular cartilage degeneration. Intraobserver and interobserver reliabilities for the grading scores also were evaluated by two independent blinded observers (WW, FB) for all radiographs. The grading and all measurements were performed on a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) with commercial planning software (Sectra IDS7; Sectra, Linkping, Sweden). When aiming for perfect postoperative mechanical alignment of neutral to 2 varus in UKA, the valgus stress test may be a helpful test to preoperatively assess the correctability and to adjust the operative technique accordingly. Methods The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the There was a poor correlation (rs= 0.154; p = 0.146) between lateral joint space width and Outerbridge grades. Magee, D.J Chapter 12: Knee, in Orthopedic Physical Assessment. How do you perform the Elbow Valgus Stress Test? Merle C, Waldstein W, Pegg E, Streit MR, Gotterbarm T, Aldinger PR, Murray DW, Gill HS. Brandt, KD., Fife, RS., Braunstein, EM. The higher grade on either the tibia or the femur determined the Outerbridge grade of the compartment. Outerbridge RE. We sought to determine (1) whether valgus stress radiographs help to evaluate the integrity of the cartilage in the lateral compartment in patients undergoing TKA for noninflammatory arthritis, and (2) whether valgus stress radiographs can identify patients whose varus deformity is correctable. A quantitative approach to radiography of the lower limb: principles and applications. Previous studies have described poor sensitivity of the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale [14] on AP standing radiographs [3, 29]. This method allowed determining the femoral mechanical axis and the tibial mechanical axis on valgus stress radiographs. Tinel Sign. Adult Reconstruction & Joint Replacement Division, Hospital for Special Surgery, 535 East 70th Street, New York, NY 10021 USA. . 1). Moreland, JR., Bassett, LW. Despite these potential benefits in addition to AP standing radiographs, valgus stress radiographs are not routinely obtained in clinical practice [9, 26]. Radiographic analysis of the axial alignment of the lower extremity. See the Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence. Modern unicompartmental knee arthroplasty with cement: a three to ten-year follow-up study. All knees with a lateral Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 1 or 2 maintained a lateral joint space width of 4 mm or more on valgus stress radiographs. A p value less than 0.05 was considered significant, and a p value less than 0.001 was considered highly significant. McMurrays test revisited: Evaluation of various methods of performing McMurrays test, Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery - British Volume, Vol 90-B, Issue SUPP_II, 320. http:///index.php?title=McMurrays_Test&oldid=322145. 9. government site. We therefore evaluated the clinical value of the valgus stress radiographs in patients with medial compartment arthritis by answering the following research questions: (1) Does the valgus stress test identify patients with lateral compartment arthritis? Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in patients sixty years of age or younger. For high tibial osteotomy and UKA, intact cartilage of the lateral compartment is important [12]. Laskin, RS. Each patient received a preoperative standardized AP hip-to-ankle standing radiograph, an AP standing knee radiograph, and a valgus stress radiograph. and Bostrom, MP. The mean medial joint space width increased by 4.4 mm (95% CI, 4.04.8 mm) to 6.0 mm (95% CI, 5.76.3 mm). In addition, the measurement method we used was reliable with excellent interobserver and intraobserver agreement. UCL injuries are diagnosed by physical examination and a valgus stress test to assess instability of the elbow. Successful outcomes with UKA and high tibial osteotomy require strict observation of indications [5]. Spearman rank correlation (rs) was used for nonparametric correlations. Abduction Stress Test. In addition to the influence of arthritis on joint space width, sex and age have to be considered. The practice of unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in the United Kingdom. . We also observed that the joint space width decreases with increasing age as previously reported [16]. Varus knees in which valgus force resulted in greater than 3 valgus were considered overcorrected and varus knees corrected to less than 3 varus were considered undercorrected, respectively. 27. Place your hip against the lateral knee and use it as a fulcrum to apply a valgus force at the knee (distal hand at the foot/ankle). Their study included 24 varus knees and they showed that knees with a lateral joint space width between 5 mm to 11 mm had intact cartilage at the time of surgery. The proximal medial tibia angle was defined as the angle between the tibial mechanical axis and the best-fit line along the surface of the tibial plateau [24]. That is usually the journal article where the information was first stated. Valgus Stress Test. Lachman's test for ACL: Patient must be relaxed. It has been suggested that by 2020 approximately 59 million people in the United States will be affected by degenerative joint disease [7]. This is the first study to assess valgus stress radiographs in a large number of patients. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help The mean medial joint space width increased by 4.4 mm (95% CI, 4.0-4.8 mm) to 6.0 mm (95% CI, 5.7-6.3 mm). Procedure Steps Supine testing Stand to the outside of the patient. Of all knees with greater than 10 varus on hip-to-ankle standing radiographs, most (91%; 29 of 32) undercorrected between 3.8 varus and 13.0 varus and only one knee with advanced arthritis (lateral Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 4) overcorrected to 5.2 valgus. On valgus stress radiographs, lateral joint space width was significantly (p = 0.005) higher in males than females and there was a weak but significant (rs= 0.208; p = 0.048) correlation between age and lateral joint space width. 23. -- Bertolotti's syndrome is an atypical cause of axial low back pain or buttock pain caused by a transitional lumbar vertebrae with a large transverse process that either fuses with the sacrum (sacral ala) or ilium, or forms a pseudoarticulation at that location. Argenson, JN., Chevrol-Benkeddache, Y. and Aubaniac, JM. Stress radiography for osteoarthritis of the knee: a new technique. Valgus stress radiographs were obtained with the patient supine with the knee 20 flexed and a firm manual valgus force was applied through the knee. Baker PE, Peckham AC, Pupparo F, Sanborn JC. Elders, MJ. Only hip-knee-ankle angle and medial joint space width on valgus stress radiographs were normally distributed (p = 0.138 to 0.2). The comparison of our results with those in the literature is limited because only two studies assessed the lateral joint space width in varus knees. With increasing severity of the varus deformity, the medial collateral ligament shortens and it becomes impossible to correct the deformity on valgus stress radiographs. Performing the Test: The affected elbow is placed in 20 degrees of flexion with the humerus in full lateral rotation and a neutral forearm (to decreased influence of PLRI) while palpating the medial joint line. 1173185. Bethesda, MD 20894, Web Policies Surgery for osteoarthritis of the knee. The institution of the authors has received, during the study period, funding from Smith & Nephew, Inc (Memphis, TN, USA). Kellgren JH, Lawrence JS. 17. Elbow flexed about 15-20 degrees. We prospectively studied a series of all 97 knees in 84 patients who underwent primary TKA for varus noninflammatory arthritis of the knee between July 2010 and January 2012. Stress radiographs in the evaluation of degenerative femorotibial joint disease. Gibson PH, Goodfellow JW. Arthritis is a common and severe musculoskeletal disease causing a high economic burden on society. The therapist grasps the distal forearm with one hand and stabilizes the elbow with the other. The increasing impact of arthritis on public health. Despite these potential benefits in addition to AP standing radiographs, valgus stress radiographs are not routinely obtained in clinical practice [9, 26]. The valgus stress test is a diagnostic test that is used in cases of suspected MCL injuries. Tallroth K, Lindholm TS. Some error has occurred while processing your request. Valgus stress radiographs provided no added benefit to the radiographic assessment of the lateral compartment cartilage and regarding the correctability of the varus deformity. 8. (2) Is the valgus stress test helpful in assessing the correctability of the deformity?

Each author certifies that his institution has approved the human protocol for this investigation, that all investigations were conducted in conformity with ethical principles of research, and that informed consent for participation in the study was obtained. Valgus Stress Test is used to evaluate the medial ulnar collateral ligament injury of the elbow joint. The higher grade on either the tibia or the femur determined the Outerbridge grade of the compartment. Put fingers of proximal hand over the medial joint line. your express consent. All images were stored in a generic DICOM format. Your message has been successfully sent to your colleague. Stabilize the femur with one hand and use the other to pull the proximal tibia anteriorly. In the current study, the mean hip-knee-ankle angle was 8.3 (95% CI, 7.4-9.1) varus. The site is secure. One of the most important factors influencing long-term survival is the condition of cartilage in the opposite femorotibial compartment [27]. The Outerbridge grading scale [23] was used for direct intraoperative cartilage assessment of the lateral compartment. Ligamentous Instability. The comparison of our results with those in the literature is limited because only two studies assessed the lateral joint space width in varus knees. McMurray Test McMurray Test Purpose: To assess for a lesion in the meniscus. Goodfellow J, OConnor J, Dodd C, Murray D. Unicompartmental Arthroplasty with the Oxford Knee.

We found that valgus stress radiographs provided no added benefit in the preoperative radiographic assessment of the lateral compartment in varus knees. Tallroth, K. and Lindholm, TS. 3). overall prevalence is unknown, however, may be as high as 65% in elite baseball players with symptomatic elbows, swimmers, volleyball players, gymnasts, racquet-sport athletes, and golfers, excessive shear forces on medial aspect of olecranon tip and olecranon fossa, cartilage injury from repetitive impaction of olecranon into olecranon fossa, UCL can become attenuated with repetitive strain, concurrent cubital tunnel syndrome in ~25% of cases, pain in posteromedial elbow with full extension of elbow, tender to palpation over posteromedial olecranon, crepitus due to loose bodies and synovitis in the posterior compartment, sustained elbow extension - "arm bar test", repeated terminal elbow extension - "bounce test", loose bodies from fragmentation of capitellum, possible calcium deposits on the substance of the MCL, results in decreased space for articulation of olecranon process within the fossa, best for demonstrating detailed osseous anatomy, 3D reconstructions can be helpful for surgical planning, helpful in evaluating associated injuries including partial/complete MCL tears, anti-inflammatory medications, cessation of throwing or offending activities, improvement of throwing mechanics, +/-, patients who are currently mid-season or are at the end of their competitive careers, pitching instruction to correct poor mechanics, persistent symptoms that fail to improve with nonoperative treatment, MCL insufficiency is a relative contraindication for olecranon debridement alone, arthroscopy procedures can include debridement or drilling of chondromalacia, debridement of lateral meniscoid lesion or posterolateral plica, osteophyte excision, loose body excision, care must be taken to only remove osteophyte and not normal olecranon as this many result in a loss of bony restraint and increase stress on the MCL, ulnar nerve can be subluxed over medial epicondyle, followed by a lengthened gradual return to throwing activities, consider supine positioning with articulating arm holder when performing arthroscopic resection in conjunction with MCL reconstruction to ease in transition to open procedure, bony landmarks, portal sites, course of the ulnar nerve and approximate location of posteromedial osteophyte, removing any loose bodies encountered and note sites of chondromalacia or osteochondral lesions, begin posteromedial osteophyte resection by establishing a posterolateral viewing portal if not already created during diagnostic arthroscopy, create direct posterior portal using spinal needle localization passing through skin and triceps tendon, identify posteromedial osteophyte and remove overlying fibrous tissue using a combination of radiofrequency ablation and mechanical shaving, in cases where the osteophyte is fractured, use an elevator, probe or osteotome to free the fractured osteophyte from the native olecranon, when removing the fractured osteophyte, consider switching your working and viewing portals to allow removal of the fragment through the posterolateral portal thus avoiding losing the fragment in the dense triceps tissue, using a shaver or burr, contour the olecranon down to its native margin taking care not to over-resect too much bone which can lead to increased stress on the MCL, perform an arthroscopic valgus stress test to identify medial gapping which may be indicative of an incompetent MCL, Transposition for symptomatic, unstable nerves, over-resection of the posteromedial osteophyte past its native margin or >3mm may lead to increased stress on the MCL and valgus instability, identify course of the ulnar nerve prior to creation of medial portals and use "nick and spread" technique to avoid iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury, when using the shaver or radiofrequency ablation device in the posteromedial gutter, consider judicious use of suction or remove the suction altogether from shaver to avoid iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury, - Valgus Extension Overload (Pitcher's Elbow), Glenohumeral Joint Anatomy, Stabilizer, and Biomechanics, Traumatic Anterior Shoulder Instability (TUBS), Humeral Avulsion Glenohumeral Ligament (HAGL), Posterior Shoulder Instability & Dislocation, Multidirectional Shoulder Instability (MDI), Luxatio Erecta (Inferior Glenohumeral Joint Dislocation), Glenohumeral Internal Rotation Deficit (GIRD), Brachial Neuritis (Parsonage-Turner Syndrome), Glenohumeral Arthritis (Shoulder Arthritis), Shoulder Arthroscopy: Indications & Approach, Lateral Ulnar Collateral Ligament Injury (PLRI), Elbow Arthroscopy: Indications & Approach. Valgus stress radiographs can assess the correctability of varus deformities. Flex the knee to 30 degrees. Data regarding the specificity and sensitivity of the . Four knees overcorrected between 3.9 and 6.4 valgus and of these, one knee had a lateral Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 4 (6.4 valgus) and one knee had an Outerbridge Grade 4 (4.4 valgus), respectively. One of the most important factors influencing long-term survival is the condition of cartilage in the opposite femorotibial compartment [27]. Moreland JR, Bassett LW, Hanker GJ. Am J Roentgenol. For intraobserver reliabilities, grading and measurements were performed at two occasions separated by a minimum of 4 weeks. Knees with minor varus deformity are more likely to be overcorrected on stress films and therefore attention has to be paid when using a spacer for intraoperative soft tissue balancing because of the risk of leaving these knees in valgus. 4). With increasing severity of the varus deformity, the medial collateral ligament shortens and it becomes impossible to correct the deformity on valgus stress radiographs. Mukherjee K, Pandit H, Dodd CA, Ostlere S, Murray DW. 7. Arthritis severity in the lateral compartment as assessed on valgus stress radiographs did not correlate well with the appearance of the lateral compartment cartilage at surgery. The Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: a radiological perspective. The content is intended to be educational only for health professionals and students. Valgus stress radiographs provided no added benefit to the radiographic assessment of the lateral compartment cartilage and regarding the correctability of the varus deformity. 4. Our approach involved use of a previously described method [6] in a large number of knees. and Scuderi, GR. The grading according to the Kellgren-Lawrence grading scale [14] for the lateral compartment was performed on AP standing radiographs.
