TRANSMISSION OF IMPULSE IN TWO DIRECTIONS AT RIGHT ANGLES TO EACH OTHER
IMPLIES PRSENCE OF FLUID IN THE SWELLING
![Page 82: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
HOW TO ELICIT FLUCTUATION?
IF THE SWELLING IS MOBILE FIRST FIX IT OR ASK THE ASST. TO HOLD IT
KEEP 2 INDEX FINGERS ON OPPOSITE POLES
WHEN ONE FINGER IS PRESSED THE FINGER AT OPPOSITE END FEELS THE IMPULSE & PASSIVELY LIFTED UP
REPEAT THE MANUVERE IN A PLANE AT RIGHT ANGLES TO THE 1ST ONE
IF IMPULSE IS FELT IN BOTH PLANES IT IS A POSITIVE FLUCTUATION TEST

LAW BEHIND FLUCTUATION!
PASCAL’S LAW PRESSURE EXERTED TOA FLUID IS
TRANSMITTED EQUALLY IN ALL THE DIRECTIONS

PRINCIPLES WHILE DOING FLUCTUATION TEST
ALWAYS PERFORM IN 2 DIRECTIONS AT RIGHT ANGLES TO EACH OTHER
TWO FINGERS SHOULD BE KEPT AS FAR APART AS POSSIBLE
FREELY MOBILE SWELLINGS SHOULD BE FIXED FIRST(AS IN HYDROCELE)
SMALL SWELLINGS –WATCHING FINGER & DISPLACING FINGER
VERY LARGE SWELLINGS MORE THAN ONE FINGFR SHOLD BE USED
![Page 85: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
PSEUDO FLUCTUATION
A FALSE SENSE OF FLUCTUATION FELT IN LARGE SOFT SWELLINGS CONTAINING NO FLUID
SEEN IN LARGE LIPOMA MYXOMA SOFT FIBROMA VASCULAR SARCOMA
FAIL TO EXPAND IN OTHER PARTS OF A SWELLING LIKE A TRUE FLUCTUANT SWELLING
![Page 86: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
CROSS FLUCTUATION
FLUCTUATION BETWEEN TWO SEPARATE CYSTIC SWELLINGS COMMUNICATING WITH EACH OTHER
SEEN IN COMPOUND PALMAR GANGLION PSOAS ABSCESS PLUNGING RANULA
![Page 87: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
8.TRANSILLUMINATION
DEMONSTRATION OF TRANSMISSION OF LIGHT THROUGH A SWELLING
POSITIVE IN SWELLINGS CONTAINING CLEAR FLUID AND THIN TRANSPARENT WALLS
NO TRANSILLUMINATION IF WALL IS THICK, OR TURBID FLUID IS PRESENT(BLOOD,PUS, LYMPH)
DARK ROOM , TRANSILLUMINOSCOPE
![Page 88: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
BRILLIANTLY TRANSILLUMINANT SWELLINGS
1.CYSTIC HYGROMA
2.EPIDIDYMAL CYST
3.MENINGOCELE WITH THIN SKIN
4.RANULA
5.CONGENITAL HYDROCELE
![Page 89: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
9.COUGH IMPULSE
PERFORMED IN SWELLINGS LIKELY TO BE IN CONTACT WITH ABDOMINAL ,CRANIAL ,SPINAL OR CHEST CAVITY
SWELLING IS HELD WITH FINGERS AND PATIENT IS ASKED TO COUGH
IF THE SWELLING BECOMES TENSE OR INCREASES IN SIZE IT IS POSITIVE COUGH IMPULSE
IN CHILDREN CRYING ACTS AS COUGH
![Page 90: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
SWELLINGS WITH POSITIVE COUGH IMPULSE
IN CONTINUITY WITH ABD. CAVITY HERNIA ILIO-PSOAS ABSCSS LUMBAR ABSCESS
IN CONTINUITY WITH PLEURAL CAVITY EMPYEMA NECESSITANS
IN CONTINUITY WITH SPINAL /CRANIAL CAVITY SPINAL/CRANIAL MENINGOCELE
![Page 91: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
10.REDUCIBILITY
INDICATION SAME AS FOR COUGH IMPULSE
PATIENT IS ASKED TO RELAX SWELLING IS COMPRESSED FROM
ALL THE SIDES UNIFORMLY REDUCIBLE SWELLINGS
DECREASESIN SIZE OR COMLETELY DISAPPEAR
![Page 92: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
REDUCIBLE SWELLINGS
1.HERNIA 2.MENINGOCELE 3.VARICOCELE 4.SAPHENA VARIX
A REDUCIBLE SWELLING ONCE REDUCED REAPPEARS ONLY BY STRAINING,COUGHING, OR FORCE OF GRAVITY AS IT INVOLVES DISPLACEMENT OF VISCERS TO AN ADJOINING CAVITY
![Page 93: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
11.COMPRESSIBILITY
WHEN PRESSURE IS APPLIED TO A SWELLING IT DECREASES IN SIZE AND WHEN PRESSURE IS RELEASED SWELLING REGAINS ITS SIZE ITSELF WITH OUT ANY EXTERNAL FACTORLIKE STRAINING OR COUGHING
CHARECTARISTIC SIGN OF VASCULAR HAEMANGIOMA
![Page 94: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
12.PULSATILITY
WHEN FINGER IS PLACED OVER A PULSATILE SWELLING IT RAISESWITH EACH BEAT
TO TYPES OF PULSATIONS TRANSMITTED PULSATIONS- SEEN IN
SWELLINGS PRESENT NEAR AN ARTERY EX:CA STOMACH LUMP NEAR ABD.AORTA
EXPANSILE PULSATIONS-SEEN IN SWELLINGS ARISING FROM ARTERIES EX:AORTIC ANEURYSM
![Page 95: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
HOW TO DIFFERENTIATE?
TWO FINGERS ARE PLACED OVER THE SWELLING AND FINGER MOVEMENTS ARE NOTED
TRANSMITTED PULSATIONS – FINGERS ARE SIMPLY LIFTED UP
EXPANSILE PULSATIONS- FINGERS ARE LIFTED UP AND MOVE APART
![Page 96: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
IN AN ABDOMINAL LUMP?
KNEE ELBOW POSITION WHEN KEPT IN KNEE ELBOW POSITION
PULSATIONS DISAPPEAR – TRANSMITTED PULSATIONS
PULSATIONS PERSIST –EXPANSILE PULSATIONS
![Page 97: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
13.FIXITY TO SKIN
SKIN PINCHED OVER DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE SWELLING -CANNOT BE PINCHED IF FIXED TO SKIN
SKIN IS MADE TO MOVE OVER THE SWELLING- THE SKIN WILL NOT MOVE IF IT IS FIXED TO SKIN
SWELLINGS ARISING FROM SKIN ARE FIXED TO SKIN EX:SEBACEOUS CYST , PAPILLOMA , EPITHELIOMA
![Page 98: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
14.RELATION TO SURROUNDING STRUCTURES
1)SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE SWELLINGS IN SUB CUTANEOUS TISSUE ARE NOT
ADHERENT TO SKIN OR UNDERLYING MUSCLE LIPOMA-PUSHED SIDEWAYS PUCKERING IS SEEN IN
SOME PLACES – DUE PRESENCE OF FIBROUS SEPTA 2)DEEP FASCIA
SWELLING ARISING FROM DEEP FASCIA WILL NOT BE AS MOBILE AS SUBCUTANEOUS SWELLINGS
IT IS DIFFICULT MAKE OUT FIXATION TO DEEP FASCIA AS DEEP FASCIA CANNOT BE MADE TAUT EVEN IF TUMOUR IS ATTACHED TO UNDERLYING DEEP
FASCIA &MUSCLE TUMOUR CAN BE MOVED SIDEWAYS
![Page 99: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)
3)RELATION TO MUSCLE
RELATION SHIP TO MUSCLE IS KNOWN BY THROWING THE CONCERNED MUSCLE INTO CONTRACTION TUMOURS IN SUB CUTANEOUS TISSUE-
BECOME MORE PROMINENT &REMAIN MOBILE TUMOURS ARISING FROM MUSCLE /
INCORPORATED IN MUSCLE-FIXED&IMMOBILE TUMORS DEEP TO MUSCLE –LESS PROMINENT,
OR DISAPPEARS,DIFFICULT TO PALPATE
![Page 100: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
4)SWELLING IN RELATION TO TENDON MOVES ALONG WITH TENDON&BECOMES FIXED WHEN MUSCLE CONTRACTS
5)IN CONNECTION WITH VESSELS &NERVES
DO NOT MOVE ALONG VESSELS OR NERVES BUT MOVE TO A LITTLE EXTENT AT RIGHT ANGLES TO THEIR AXES
6)IN CONNECTION WITH BONE IS ABSOLUTELY FIXED IRRESPECTIVE OF
MUSCLE CONTRACTION

REGIONAL LYMPH NODES
DRAINING LYMPH NODES EXAMINED IF INVOLVED NEXT HIGHER GROUP EXAMINED
IF THE SWELLING ITSELF IS ALYMPH NODE EXAMINE 1.OTHER LYMPH NODAL GROUPS 2.SPLEEN 3.LIVER
TO EXCLUDE SYSTEMIC CAUSE EXAMINE DRAINAGE AREA TO EXCLUDE
INFECTION
![Page 104: Clinical examination of swelling](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042421/555e6792d8b42a71048b4ba2/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
PRESSURE EFFECTS
1.OVER BONE – FEEL FOR BONY EROSION AS IN DERMOID CYST
2.IN LIMBS DISTAL PULSES- PRESSURE OVER ARTERIES EDEMA &DILATED VEINS – PRESSURE OVER
VEINS PARESIS& MUSCLE WASTING – PRESSURE
OVER NERVES MOVEMENTS OF JOINTS

Question time? WHAT IS UNIVARSAL TUMOUR? WHAT ARE THE PROCESSESS FUSING IN
EXTERNAL ANGULAR DERMOID? WHAT IS THE TUMOUR SHOWING POSITIVE SLIP
SIGN? WHAT IS THE SITE AT WHICH A LIPOMA MOST
COMMONLY UNDERGOES SARCOMATOUS CHANGE?
WHAT IS THE MOST COMMON SITE FOR CYSTIC HYGROMA?
WHAT IS THE OTHER NAME FOR BASAL CELL CARCINOMA?
