A Case Report Thomas C. Michaud . . . . . . . . . Return to Menu Abstracts Simple Bone Cysts in Athletes Lindsay J. Rowe, B. App. Among these are benign bone tumors, especially simple bone cysts. Ten cases are reported and a review is made of the literature regarding their clinical, pathological, radiological, and treatment features. All sports physicians and especially those who deal with younger athletes should be cognizant of this entity especially when there has been a sudden appearance of pain with signs of fracture.
Emphasis is placed on the role of radiography for accurate diagnosis.
Abnormal dynamics of this articulation can occur in the absence of fracture or dislocation. A case of PTF joint dysfunction is presented which responded well to manipulative therapy. Knee pain with activity is not uncommon and has been attributed to etiologies such as degenerative joint disease, foot pronation, congenital malalignment, muscle weakness, or inadequate muscle conditioning and overuse. These superior joint restrictions have an excellent prognosis when treated with manipulation and prompt therapy can avert development of abnormal ankle mechanics. Coronary ligament sprain is often overlooked as a cause of knee pain.
