An improperly treated quadriceps contusion can result in what pathology?
Myositis ossificans (heterotrophic ossificans)
This pathology is a partial tear. It is identified by a sharp snap, severe pn, and loss of function (<70% of fibers are torn). This structure is a hip extender and knee flexor.
What is a Grade 2 hamstring tear?
The pt. sits at the edge of the table, knees are hanging off. The pt. then lifts the hip into midrange of flexion. The AT applies resistance at the distal end of the femur. What muscle is being tested?
Iliopsoas
What is Kendall's test?
If the toes point out when the pt is standing then what hip variation do they have?
Retroversion
This pathology is avascular necrosis of the femoral head in children ages 4 to 10. Only 25% of accounts are caused by trauma. The articular cartilage becomes necrotic and flattens. The pt may cc pn in the groin that may refer to the abdomen or knee. There could be a possible limp.
What is Legg-Calve-Perthes disease?
The pt. lies on their side and their top leg is lifted into the air (midrange of abduction). What muscle is being tested?

What is slipped capital femoral epiphysis?
How do you test the hip extenders and involve the hamstrings?

If you see a pt has excessive lordosis, such as a linebacker, which muscles do you believe are being stretched and which are being shortened? (muscle groups)
