Pubic ramus fatigue fractures after total knee arthroplasty. A case report.

Fatigue fractures in the rheumatoid population are infrequent but well described clinical and radiographic entities, and rarely occur within the pelvis. These fractures often are difficult to diagnose. Pelvic fatigue fractures are much less commonly detected and reported after total joint arthroplasties. This article reports the sequential appearance of fatigue fractures of the superior portions of both pubic rami after total knee replacement arthroplasties which were not suspected on historical review, physical examination, nor well visualized on initial plain radiographs and technetium bone scanning.

Freiberg disease complicating unrelated trauma.

Freiberg's infraction is an avascular necrosis of the metatarsal head characterized by the development of disorderliness of chondrogenesis and osteogenesis in previously normal bone. Radiographic findings follow the pathological progression of bony changes. The presented cases document the development of avascular necrosis in a previously normal metatarsal that occurred after trauma or surgery elsewhere in the foot. It is suggested that infraction of the metatarsal head resulted from microfracture caused by abnormal stress.

Overuse syndromes of the upper extremity in interpreters for the deaf.

Fourteen of 80 interpreters (18%) for deaf students at a national center on deafness sought medical care for painful conditions of the upper extremity; 11 others (14%) had less severe or transient symptoms. The conditions were brought on by repetitive use and were relieved by rest. All represented overuse syndromes. Tendinitis, fasciitis, synovitis, and nerve entrapment were encountered most often. Conservative treatment (eg, physical therapy, splinting, medications) was of little or no value. Only rest relieved symptoms. Surgery was rarely indicated. The most reasonable approach to treatment would, therefore, seem to be prevention. Suggested methods for avoidance of pain include limiting the duration of interpreting sessions, technique modification, and resistance exercises to increase endurance.

Overuse tendinitis of the intrinsic muscles.

Repetitive strain injuries are currently the leading cause of occupational illnesses. This report describes seven patients who presented with the sole symptom of hand pain and subsequently were diagnosed with intrinsic tendinitis. Six of the 7 patients were given injections of a local anesthetic and steroid solution into the region of the lumbrical tunnels for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. All 6 patients had immediate short-term resolution of their symptoms in the office, thereby confirming the diagnosis. Complete resolution of symptoms after both the injection and other treatment interventions occurred in 4 patients, and partial resolution of symptoms occurred in the remaining two patients. Follow-up ranged from 3 to 20 months for 6 patients, and the seventh patient was lost to follow-up. The clinical presentation, diagnostic work-up, and treatment of intrinsic tendinitis are described.

Iliotibial band friction syndrome.

Overuse knee injuries are common, but ITBFS is often overlooked as a cause of lateral knee pain in an active population. Iliotibial band friction syndrome is an overuse injury usually seen in long distance runners, cyclists, and military personnel. The exact incidence of the syndrome has been estimated to range from 1.6%-52% depending on the population studied. The diagnosis is often made from a thorough history and clinical examination with an infrequent need for additional studies. Treatment is mostly conservative consisting of rest and anti-inflammatory agents, with only the refractory cases requiring surgical resection of the impinging portion of the ITB.

Degenerative spondyloarthropathy of the cervical and lumbar spine in jockeys.

This prospective study analyzed the long-term effects of horse riding on the cervical and lumbar spine of jockeys. Thirty-two jockeys were observed for 13 years. All jockeys had clinical and radiographic evaluation of the spine; three consecutive age groups were studied. Results were compared to age-matched, normal population control groups. The incidence of degenerative changes of the spine was higher in the jockeys compared with the control groups and was more prominent in the older age group for both the lumbar and cervical spine. These findings suggest that equestrian sports, particularly professional horse riding, apart from the increased risk of direct spinal injury caused by a fall from the horse, can lead to progressive spine degeneration as a result of repetitive trauma and increased physical stress on the spine.

Overuse injuries of the olecranon in adolescents.

Overuse injuries are common in elite adolescent athletes due to intensive training demands. Overuse injuries of the olecranon have been divided into true stress fractures and osteochondroses. This article presents a third overuse injury, painful intraosseous edema, in elite adolescent athletes.
