Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic tool in the evaluation and management of lateral elbow pathologies. This imaging modality provides high-resolution, dynamic visualization of superficial soft tissue structures, making it particularly advantageous for assessing conditions such as lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow), ligamentous injuries, radial tunnel syndrome, and other common disorders. This article reviews the utility of MSKUS for rehabilitation providers, focusing on its role in accurately identifying pathoanatomical changes, guiding treatment strategies, and monitoring therapeutic outcomes.

Background This is a retrospective service evaluation of outcomes of polytrauma patients sustaining knee dislocations and subluxations within a major trauma center (MTC). Polytrauma patients with knee dislocations are complex to manage and often sustain multiple life-threatening injuries. Although treatments have progressed, no consensus remains on management timing and strategy.

Gait Posture
December 2024
Faculty of Medicine, Neurology Department, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey.
Background: Although stroke patients gain an advantage in gait due to the knee hyperextension that occurs during the stance phase, this situation disrupts the biomechanical structure of the knee and increases the risk of injury to the capsular and ligamentous structures. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of rigid taping on hyperextension control and pelvic kinematics in stroke patients with knee hyperextension during the stance phase of gait.
Research Question: Does rigid taping have an effect on hyperextension control and pelvic kinematics in stroke patients with knee hyperextension?
Methods: Thirty stroke patients aged between 40 and 70 were included in this pre-postintervention study.
Medial and Lateral Meniscus Root Tear: Etiopathogenesis and Morphological Pattern in Indian Population.

January 2025
Ivy Hospital, Mohali, Punjab India.
Objective: This study aims to enhance our understanding of the morphological pattern, causes and pathogenesis of meniscal root injuries in the Indian population.
Materials And Methods: Sixty-four patients with meniscus root tears were included in the study. The patients were categorized into two groups based on the location of the meniscus tear: Group 1 ( = 41) comprised patients with lateral meniscus root injury (LMRI), and Group 2 ( = 23) included patients with medial meniscus root injury (MMRI).
