immune system anatomy Flashcards
(30 cards)
compartments of the thigh
anterior compartment-profunda femoris femoral nerve femur posterior compartment: profunda femoris sciatic nerve adductors: profunda memoirs/obturator artery obturator nerve
compartments of the leg
lateral compartment : superficial peroneal nerve fibular artery anterior compartment: anterior tibial artery deep peroneal nerve fibula tibia posterior compartment : tibial nerve and posterior tibial artery All sciatic!!!!
posterior compartment of the thigh
muscles: biceps femoris,semimembranosus,semitendonsus
functions:extend the hip
blood supply:profunda femoris
nerve: sciatic
sciatica
causes: piriformis syndrome ,herniated disc
sx: lower back pain ,shooting leg pain, radiating buttocks to feet ,weakness,numbness
which muscle does the femoral nerve innervate
rectus femoris
anterior compartment of the thigh
muscles: iliopsoas:psoas major,iliacus quadriceps:rectus femoris,vasus lateralis,intermedias +medialis function:extend the knee blood supply:femoral artery nerve supply:femoral nerve
after a RTA a young male presents with a shortened and externally rotated leg. where is his fracture most likely to be and what risk is there?
shaft of femur
AVN retrograde blood supply of medial circumflex artery
medial compartment of the thigh
muscles: adductor Magnus,brevis,obturstor externes,gracilis
Action :adducts thigh
nerve:obturator nerve
blood supply:profunda femoris+obturator artery
gluteus maximus
action: thigh extensor and assist w/ lateral rotation
nerve: inferior gluteal
gluteus medius and minimus
action: abducts and medially rotates lower limb
nerve: superior gluteal
leg-anterior compartment
muscles: extensor digitorum longus tibialis anterior extensor hallucis longus fibulas tertius action: dorsiflex and invert foot at ankle joint blood supply: anterior tibial artery nerve : deep peroneal nerve
leg -lateral compartmentt
muscles: fibularis longus fibularis brevis action:eversion of the foot nerve supply:superficial fibular blood supply:fibular artery
tibial nerve injury
loss of plantar flexion,flexion of the toes and weekend inversion of foot
leg -superficial posterior
muscles:gastronemius,soleus,plantaris
action-plantarflexes at ankle joint
nerve supply:tibial (branch of sciatic)
blood supply:posterior tibial artery
leg-deep posterior
muscles-action
flexor digitorum longus-flexes lateral 4 toes
flexor hallucis-flexes big toe
tibialis posterior-inverts and plantar flexes foot
popliteus-laterally rotates femur
innervation:sciatic
posterior tibial artery
femoral artery is a direct branch of which artery
external iliac
blood supply of the lower limb
abdo aorta-common iliac-external iliac-popliteal -anterior tibial artery+tibioperoneal trunk-fibular/peroneal and posterior tibial arteries -anterior tibial artery-dorsals pedis
superficial veins
great saphenous vein from dorsal arch -empties into femoral vein
small saphenous from dorsal venous arch -empties into political vein
you carry out an anterior draw test on an injured leg and find excessive anterior translation of the tibia. what ligament is injured
ACL
which of the following runs anterior to the medial malleolus of the tibia
Great saphenous vein
achilles tendon attaches to which bone in the foot
calcaneous
during a sensory exam you discover sensation of the anteriomedial aspect of the calf has been lost. Which nerve root is this dermatome associated with
L4
patient comes to you unable to plantar flex their foot. which myotome has been affected
S1
lower limb myotomes
L2=hip flexion L3=knee extension L4=ankle dorsiflexion L5=great toe extension S1=ankle plantar flexion/eversion/hip extension
