English term

brush and drawer

English to Spanish Medical Medical (general) joints pain
Hello,
I have to translate a medical report into Spanish (it seems written by a Spanish speaker) and the paragraph states:
"...On right knee clinic examination, there was pain in internal compartment, quadriceps hypotrophy, pain to maximum flexion, no signs of ligamentary lesion, negative, yawn, brush and drawere, no knee instability..."
Maybe there is a mistake in the sentences.....
Thank you so much!

signo del cepillo y signo de(l) cajón

Hola Silvana:

Efectivamente, parece que alguien intentó traducir el texto al inglés sin tener un adecuado dominio de la terminología por lo cual ha usado algunos calcos que son erróneos. Te comento qué significan algunas de las cosas que aparentemente no has podido encontrar:
Yawn: signo del bostezo o simplemente bostezo
Brush: signo del cepillo
Drawer: signo o maniobra de cajón o simplemente cajón
Todas son maniobras especiales para evaluar la rodilla. Además, los nombres varín ligeramente en toda Iberoamérica.
Saludos.

Anterior drawer test
The patient is positioned in supine with the knee flexed to 90 degrees and the hip flexed to 45 degrees. The therapist stabilizes the lower leg by sitting on the forefoot. The therapist stabilizes the lower leg by sitting on the foot. The therapist grasps the patient's proximal tibia with two hands and places their thumbs on the tibial plateau and administers an aterior directed force to the tibia on the femur. A positive test is indicated by excessive anterior translation of the tibia on the femur with a diminished or absent end-point and may be indicative of an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
