Knee and leg injuries are extremely common presentations to the emergency department. Understanding the anatomy of the knee, particularly the vasculature and ligamentous structures, can help emergency physicians (EPs) diagnose and manage these injuries. Use of musculoskeletal ultrasonography can further aid EPs through the diagnostic process.

Injuries in the leg span a broad spectrum of patient age and athletic level. Overuse injuries, such as medial tibial stress syndromes and stress fractures, tend to occur in the young athlete, whereas tennis leg usually occurs in the older population. With a few exceptions, most of these injuries can be successfully treated nonoperatively.

Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2010Muscle injuries of the lower leg are a common cause for time off from sports, and may also be a cause of disability in nonathletes who have a running or "pushing off" injury as part of their activities of daily living. Most injuries can be managed without imaging, but in selected cases advanced imaging techniques can demonstrate the exact site and ...

Management of vascular injuries to the leg
The American Journal of Surgery, 1982Our experience with 69 vascular injuries in 56 patients led us to modify the management of vascular injuries to the leg. We believe that prompt and complete angiography whenever the general condition of the patient allows it, early fasciotomy when indicated before vascular repair, thrombectomy of the injured artery and vein and local instillation of ...

Major bleeding is controlled by manual compression. In extremities with fractures, vascular injuries should always be suspected. Most vascular injuries are revealed by careful and repeated clinical examination. Before exploring a wound in a patient with a history of substantial bleeding, obtain proximal control.
