KIN 100 Lab 2 Exam Flashcards
Muscles/Nerves/Arteries/Veins of Pelvic girdle and lower extremities (177 cards)
What are the 3 bones that make up the Os Coxae (hip bone)?
Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
What is the site where these bones fuse together?
Acetabulum (hip socket)
What are some characteristics of male pelvis’?
Outlet is more heart shaped, pubic angle is an inverted V (smaller angle)
What are some characteristics of female pelvis’?
Ilia flair out (makes pelvis wider at top), outlet is more oval shaped, pubic angle is an inverted “U” (angle is greater than 100 degrees)
What does head of femur articulate w/?
Acetabulum of hip
What is the fovea capitis?
Site of attachment for ligamentum teres
What does the distal end of the Femur articulate with?
Head of Tibia and patella
Where is the intertrochanteric crest?
posterior side of femur, swoops b/t trochanters
Where is the intertrochanteric line?
anterior side of femur, line b/t trochanters
What is the orientation of the patella?
apex = bottom/inferior, pointed; base = top/superior, flat
How do you orientate the apex?
Apex away from you, posterior side (tented) down towards the table, whichever side it falls to = the knee it is from
What type of joint is the hip joint?
ball and socket
What tissue is the acetabular labrum composed of?
fibrous cartilage
What covers the center of the acetabulum?
A fat pad encased in synovial membrane
What does the Iliofemoral ligament connect?
Anterior inferior Iliac spine to intertrochanteric crest (thickening of the capsule)
What does the pubofemoral ligament connect?
Superior pubic ramus to anterior surface of femur (thickening of capsule)
What does the ischiofemoral ligament connect?
Posterior portion of acetabular rim (Ischium) to anterior surface of femur (thickening of capsule)
What 2 joints are within the knee?
Tibiofemoral joint (b/t tibia and femur) and patellofemoral joint (b/t patella and patellar surface of femur
What type of joint is the patellofemoral joint?
gliding joint (diarthrotic/free moving)
What type of joint is the tibiofemoral joint?
hinge joint (synovial)
What tissue are the menisci made of?
fibrous cartilage pads
Where are the menisci located?
b/t tibia and femur, lateral and medial sides
What are the 4 roles of the menisci?
- cushion
- conform to shape of articulating surfaces depending on movement of femur
- increase surface area of tibiofemoral joint
- provide lateral support
Where does the anterior curciate ligament (ACL) originate and insert? What does it prevent?
origin: anterior surface of tibia
insertion: lateral condyle of the femur
prevents the tibia from going forward
