    Type IV = Medial tibial plateau fracture, with or without depression; may involve tibial spines; associated soft tissue injuries. This is a medial tibial plateau fracture with a split or depressed component. It is usually the result of a high energy injury and involves a varus force with axial loading at the knee.

  4. Running injuries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_injuries

    A stress fracture is a fatigue-induced bone fracture caused by repeated stress over time. Instead of resulting from a single severe impact, stress fractures are the result of accumulated injury from repeated submaximal loading, such as running or jumping. Because of this mechanism, stress fractures are common overuse injuries in athletes. [18]

    Anterior tibial stress fractures can have a particularly poor prognosis and can require surgery. On radiographic imaging, these stress fractures are referred to as the "dreaded black line." [6] When compared to other stress fractures, anterior tibial fractures are more likely to progress to complete fracture of the tibia and displacement. [5]

    Varus stress test at 0° and 30° - Varus stress testing is accomplished while the patient is lying supine on an examination table. The physician supports the thigh against the side of the exam table and applies a varus force to the knee joint while holding the ankle or foot , first at 0°of flexion and then at 30°.

  8. Tibia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibia

    The tibia is a part of four joints; the knee, ankle, superior and inferior tibiofibular joint. In the knee the tibia forms one of the two articulations with the femur, often referred to as the tibiofemoral components of the knee joint.; [4] [5] it is the weightbearing part of the knee joint. [2] The tibiofibular joints are the articulations ...

    The PCL is located within the knee joint where it stabilizes the articulating bones, particularly the femur and the tibia, during movement.It originates from the lateral edge of the medial femoral condyle and the roof of the intercondyle notch [5] then stretches, at a posterior and lateral angle, toward the posterior of the tibia just below its articular surface.
