The Apley Grind Test is used to evaluate for meniscal injury. The patient is asked to lie prone. The knee is flexed to 90°. The examiner rotates the leg internally and externally at the tibial condyles. Pain in the knee on external rotation indicates medial meniscal injury while pain on internal rotation indicates lateral meniscal injury. The Apley Grind Test is similar to the Steinman test, only that the latter is performed with the patient in the supine position.
