    Abstract Introduction The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in rapid healthcare system adaptations, including the acceptance of telemedicine in primary care. In the case of knee ailments, among the most common problems encountered in primary care, telemedicine provides a literal window to observe the patient performing functional activities. Despite its potential, there is a lack of standardized protocols for data collection. The purpose of this article is to provide a step-by-step protocol to aid in performing a telemedicine examination of the knee. Methods This article provides a step-by-step guide for a telehealth examination of the knee. Results A step-by-step examination of how to structure a telemedicine evaluation of the knee. A glossary of images of each maneuver has been included to demonstrate the components of the examination. Additionally, a table of questions and possible answers were included to help guide the provider through a knee examination. Conclusion This article provides a structured and efficient means of extracting clinically relevant information during telemedicine examinations of the knee.

    Abstract Although calcific tendinopathy of the shoulder is a relatively common clinical diagnosis, calcific tendinopathy of the rectus femoris tendon near its origin at the anterior inferior iliac spine is rare. We present a case of a 53-year-old female avid runner with left hip pain. Clinical evaluation and X-ray imaging led to a diagnosis of calcific tendinopathy of the rectus femoris tendon. The patient was treated conservatively with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapy and rest. Calcific tendinopathy of the rectus femoris tendon can occur rarely in active patients and may be a cause of hip pain, responsive to conservative management, but with other treatment options possible if recalcitrant.

    Abstract Herpes zoster is an infection resulting from the reactivation of dormant varicella zoster virus (VZV) in a posterior dorsal root ganglion. It affects 50% of immunocompromised patients and, when the viral infection persists, it can lead to a process known as disseminated varicella zoster virus (dVZV). Here we discuss a case of a bullous presentation of VZV with a rapid evolution of disseminated herpes zoster in an immunocompromised patient. Maintaining a broad differential diagnosis is necessary for early diagnosis and treatment of atypical presentations of herpes zoster, which is imperative to avoid increasing morbidity and mortality.

    Abstract Background: Although gastrointestinal involvement is the most common site for extra-genital endometriosis, deep infiltrative endometriosis, which affects the mucosal layer, is very rare.
    Case presentation: We present a case of a 41-year-old white woman with cyclic rectal bleeding. Magnetic resonance imaging was done, together with colonoscopy and histologic staining of biopsied samples, which led to the final diagnosis of intestinal invasive endometriosis with recto-sigmoid stricture. Our patient was treated symptomatically with stool softeners.
    Conclusion: This case provides a rare example of catamenial bleeding. It is important to keep invasive endometriosis on the differential diagnosis whenever a premenopausal woman has cyclical rectal bleeding.

    Abstract There is a movement in the United States to transform family medicine practices from single physician-based patient care to team-based care. These teams are usually composed of multiple disciplines, including social workers, pharmacists, registered nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and physicians. The teams support patients and their families, provide holistic care to patients of all ages, and allow their members to work to the highest level of their training in an integrated fashion. Grouping care team members together within visual and auditory distance of each other is likely to enhance communication and teamwork, resulting in more efficient care for patients. This grouping is termed colocation. The authors describe how the use of colocation can lead to clearer, faster communication between care team members. This practice style has the potential to be expanded into various clinical settings in any given health system and to almost all clinical specialties and practices.
