Sei que talvez vocês não vejam esse comentário, mas sou brasileiro e estou estudando fisioterapia em meu país. Seus vídeos são bons demais, nenhum conteúdo em português traz informações sobre precisão e taxa de acertos dos testes. Material que vocês tem aqui é bem completo e bem direto, muito obrigado por salvar mais um estudante!

[Uangel]

I watch your videos and teach my students. It makes everything so much easier for me

You have to keep the other hand( thumb/fingers) at the joint line to palpate for the click

0:34 lateral meniscus

1:00 medial meniscus

[hyunhong]

I think your left fingers should be on meniscus line. Besides, externally rotate the tibia introduce a valgus force, and extend the knee for medial meniscus. With the tibia internally rotated and a varus force applied to the knee for lateral meniscus

Sir I'm a Judoka and had a direct knee striking throw on mat, it's been more than 18 days and yet pain is not over, pain isn't that hard but I feel some pain while bending my knees and walking too, and I'm afraid that whether I have a meniscus tear or not!

[estelleadamski]

When my ortho did the McMurray test it was neg. it was 10 days after I injured it. MRI showed complex radial meniscus tear, a Baker's cyst & bone contusion and loose bodies & tissue edema. I had a partial meniscectomy 6 mos. later. Also my knee never swelled up at all.

[RishikeshMenon]

You say in this video that you are testing the lateral meniscus when you flexed the knee AND internally rotated the lower leg. However, in your joint line tenderness palpation video you state that external rotation of the lower leg exposes the lateral meniscus. Could you please confirm which is correct? Thank you.
