Russian term

Симптом Пастернацкого

Russian to English Medical Medical (general)
Симптом Пастернацкого отрицательный с обеих сторон.

I suppose I'll use "Pasternatsky's symptom" if there's nothing else, but is it a recognised name of a symptom in English? All the references to it seem to be Russian.

Are there any links, any clarification of what this symptom is?
Proposed translations (English)
5 +7 costovertebral angle tenderness
