Thanks for your comment. For those interested in reading about the pivot shift test, Wheeless' Textbook of Orthopaedics online is a good place to start.

awesome video as always

To clarify, from the Journal of Clinical Examination re McMurray's:
To assess for a medial meniscal tear, flex the knee fully and externally rotate the foot. Apply a valgus force to the lower leg. Now, extend the knee and note the presence of a painful click over the medial joint line as the femur passes over a tear in the meniscus. For lateral meniscal tear, flex the knee fully and internally rotate foot. Now, apply a varus force to the lower leg. Extend the knee and note the presence of a click with pain over lateral joint line. Note, a negative McMurray’s test does not exclude a meniscal tear. The McMurray test had a sensitivity of 53 percent and a specificity of 59 percent.

By varus force do you mean pushing the medial side of knee out

[@lanitaadams1115]

Thank you! This is a great help to me

Dear Oxford Medical videos
Very informative video. A small detail is however that at 1.41 we are told to keep an eye for wasting of vastus medialis but it appears she is pointing at the vastus lateralis.

Pivot shift test, would have been useful to include.

[@princemakwana7615]

Thanks a lot you made my exam very good. why you people stop uploading....

[@fattcat69]

I have valgus! Plzzz tell me any treatment for it

[@jctlam]

I thought that for Mc Murray's the two variations to be performed were;
1. Valgus force and Internal Rotation of the shank
2. Varus force and External ration of the shank ???

[@jncmc2]

Can you come up Newcastle and check mine please

[@dboyfff]

Very Thorough...

[@dboyfff]

Very detailed video....dont' they have the knee surgery to go along with this video or another video so we can see how its now done using mechanical devices and rubbers and metals or a jus Acha...aren't they great Singler for la what de loup, hummus?

[@LocalFinn]

did you have a stroke?

[@dboyfff]

+Jay Poin no bu you might have...a personal argument is not an argument at all...did you have a ghast or baffle...speak when you have a something in mind that is meaningful otherwise...don't speak at all...use chewing gum instead..that works too...

[@AhmetOzcelik-py4zo]

Thx

[@dboyfff]

The less palpations you do the better you are off. So to inspect the back of the knee I would have asked the patient to stand or turnover....

[@abdalrahmanSham]

nice

[@unknownpleasures100]

He should really have socks off, to inspect for pes planus and cavus.

The narrator's accent ebbs and flows. Makes me wonder if she spent significant time in America.
