Q

Quadriceps femoris

A 
O: Rectus femoris= AIIS
Vasti= shaft of femur

Q

Osgood-Schlatter Disease

A

Muscles pull on tendon that connects the kneecap to the shinbone
Affects tibial tuberosity
Cause tendon to pull away from shinbone, resulting in pain and swelling
In some cases, body may try closing gap by growing bone
