Study Notes
Musculoskeletal (MSK) Course Primer
- The course is directed by Dr. Kamalpreet Buttar, MD and Dr. Farzana Nuruzzaman, MD.
- It was created by Jack Scheutzow and Kevin Kashanchi.
- The document is a primer for MSK topics.
- It includes a table of contents to go directly to sections on spine, hand/wrist, elbow, shoulder, knee, hip, ankle/foot, bone biology, additional videos, and abbreviations.
Spine
- Learning Objectives include knowledge of cervical and lumbar spine physical examination components.
- Understanding implications of Spurling's Test, Lhermitte Sign, and Straight Leg Raise.
- Identification of clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and basic management for spinal disorders like thoracic kyphosis, vertebral fractures (pathologic), disc herniation, lumbar disc (L4-L5), cervical disc (posterolateral annulus fibrosus), Paget's disease (Osteitis deformans), spondylolisthesis (risk factors), ankylosis/spondyloarthropathies, cervical nerve radiculopathy, and enthesopathy of the spine.
Hand/Wrist
- Learning Objectives include the components of hand and wrist physical examination.
- Understanding the implications of Finkelstein's test, Watson's test, Snuff Box Tenderness, Gamekeeper's thumb, Tinel's sign, Phalen's sign, and Wartenberg's sign.
- Identification of clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and basic management of hand/wrist disorders such as Dupuytren contractures, anatomic snuff box fractures (Scaphoid fracture), De Quervain disease, Acute carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic (associated with conditions like pregnancy, RA, hypothyroidism, DM, dialysis-related amyloidosis, repetitive use), Guyon canal syndrome, and injuries from "fall on outstretched hand".
Elbow
- Learning Objectives include components of elbow physical examination, tests for medial/lateral epicondylitis (golfer's/tennis elbow), and management of olecranon bursitis, radial head subluxation/fracture, distal biceps tendon rupture, lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow), and enthesopathy of the elbow.
Shoulder
- Learning Objectives include components of shoulder physical examination, tests for labral tears(O'Brien's and Crank Test), AC joint, and shoulder instability (Sulcus, Anterior Drawer, and Posterior Drawer tests). Identify clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and basic management of bicipital tendonitis, adhesive capsulitis (“frozen shoulder syndrome”), shoulder impingement syndromes (supraspinatus syndrome), shoulder separation (injury to coracoclavicular ligament), shoulder dislocation (posterior), injuries to the supraspinatus, subscapularis, infraspinatus, and teres minor.
Knee
- Learning Objectives include components of knee physical examination, tests for ACL, MCL, LCL, PCL, meniscus, patella injuries (Anterior Drawer Test, Posterior Drawer Test, Bulge Sign, Abnormal Passive Abduction, Abnormal Passive Adduction, Lachman Test, and McMurray Test). Identify clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and basic management of osteochondritis dissecans, knee dislocation, lateral collateral ligament injury, medial collateral ligament injury, anterior cruciate ligament injury, posterior cruciate ligament injury, Osgood-Schlatter disease, chondromalacia patella, genu valgum or varum, prepatellar bursitis, Baker cyst, and “Unhappy triad” injury.
Hip
- Learning Objectives include the components of hip physical examination, tests for hip disorders (FABER test, FADIR test, LOG roll test, Stinchfield test, Thomas test, and Ober's test.). Identify clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and basic management of trochanteric bursitis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Legg-Calve Perthes, developmental dysplasia of hip, fractures of the femur, and fractures of the femoral neck.
Ankle & Foot
- Learning Objectives include ankle/foot anatomy, physical examination components, tests like Anterior Drawer Test, Inversion Stress Test, Thompson Squeeze Test, and management of ankle fractures (deltoid ligament injury), Achilles' tendon rupture, sprains (anterior talofibular, lateral, tibial collateral ligaments), enthesopathy of the ankle, plantar fasciitis, Charcot joints, pes planus, and varus/valgus deformities of the foot.
Bone Biology & Bone Tumors
- Learning Objectives include the disruption of ossification, growth, remodeling, and repair leading to neoplasms. Recognizing unregulated growth and stimulation of chondroblasts can lead to chondroblastomas or chondrosarcoma. Differentiation between histology findings of bone tumors. Distinguish between clinical features of benign and malignant bone neoplasms and cartilage tumors (osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma) and secondary malignant bone tumors by primary, age demographics, and radiographic findings.
Additional Videos
- Video links for upper/lower extremities and spine/back are provided.
Abbreviations
- A list of common abbreviations and their meanings related to the MSK system.
