Résumé : | Introduction Distinguishing intraarticular lesion from extraarticular lesion need a thorough clinical evaluation in case of atraumatic knee pain. The main objective of this case report was to describe about the clinical course of a patient with unrelenting symptoms with suspected lateral meniscus lesion. Case description A 48-year old man was diagnosed with suspected lesion in the anterior horn of lateral meniscus for 9 months had received pharmacological and physiotherapy interventions. Yet the patient did not respond favourably to former symptomatic treatment. As the history and objective evaluation consistently matched with abnormal neurodynamics, in the similar line, the patient was treated with neural mobilization in a modified slump position, 15 repetitions per session for three consecutive days combined with postural correction exercises. Result The outcomes were measured with numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) and knee society scale (KSS). The patient responded very well to neural mobilization combined with postural correction exercises. The NPRS (4 at rest; 7 on activity) before our intervention reduced to (0 at rest, 1 on activity) at the end of 3 rd consecutive day intervention and the KSS improved to 75 from 55 in pain score & 90 from 80 on function score. At 2-months follow-up, the patient completely recovered from pain and knee dysfunction. Conclusion This case report signifies that abnormal neurodynamics can be a factor for lateral knee pain. Neural mobilization with postural correction exercises may be recommended as an appropriate treatment for patient with lateral-knee-pain due to abnormal neurodynamics. |
