Q

what ligament attaches medial and lateral men

A

transverse ligament

30
Q

what muscle sends fibers into the lateral meniscus

A

the popliteus

31
Q

what direction does the men glide with flexion

A

ant

32
Q

what direction does the men glides with ext

A

post

33
Q

what is the primary resistance of the MCL

A

valgus stress

34
Q

what movement does the LCL and the MCL both restrict

A

lateral tibia

medial femoral

35
Q

what is the primary resiatnce of the LCL

A

varus stress

36
Q

where does the ACL attached on the tibia

A

anterior

37
Q

where does the PCL attached on the tibia

A

posterior portion

38
Q

what part of the capsule are the ACL and the PCL

A

extra synovial

intra capsular

38
Q

what is the function of the ACL

A

prevent ant tibia translation

39
Q

what is the function of the PCL

A

resists posterior tib translation

primary stabilizer of the knee

40
Q

what ligament prevent interal rot/medial of the tibia

A

ACL and PCL

41
Q

what are the extensors of the knee

A

quads - VM, VL, VI, RF

42
Q

what are the flexors of the knee

A

hamstring

gastroc

popliteus

sartorius and gracilis

43
Q

where does sartorius and gracillis attach

A

the pes anserine SGT

44
Q

what are the ER of the knee

A

lateral hamstring

ITband

45
Q

what are the internal rotators of the knee

A

Pes anserine - SGT

popliteus

medial hamstring

46
Q

what are the three muscles of the hamstring

A

BF

semiten

semimem

47
Q

where do all of the hamstring muscles attach to

A

the Ischial tuberosity

48
Q

where is the pes anserine

A

medial knee below the joint line

49
Q

where does the bicep femoris insert

A

the fibular head

50
Q

what is the origin of the RF

A

the AIIS

51
Q

what is the origin of the vastis lat

A

greater trochanter

52
Q

what is the origin of the vastus med

A

linea aspera of the femur

53
Q

what vasculature is found in the popliteal fossa

A

popliteal art and vien

tibia nerve
posterior femoral cutaneous nerve
common peroneal nerve

54
Q

what is the popliteal art a branch of

A

the femoral art

55
Q

what does capsular pattern mean

A

the issue is not in the patient joint capsule and is instead likely the ligaments of the tendons

56
Q

knee artho extension

A

anterior roll and glide

57
Q

knee artho flexion

A

posterior roll and glide

58
Q

why does the screw home mechanism occur

A

becasue the medial condyle is longer then the lateral

so the lateral is done but the medial is not creating this rotation

59
Q

what is the importance of the proximal tib fin joint with ankle issues

A

ant glide seen with ankle eversion

post glide seen with ankle inversion

this joint can become hypomobile and cause lateral knee pain following ankle sprains - it is stiff and not moving well

60
Q

what bursa do we see in the knee

A

prepatellar bursa

suprapatellar bursa

infrapatellar bursa

pes anserine bursa

61
Q

what is the function of bursa

A

cushion for the knee

or

provide lubrication for structures

62
Q

can you stretch the IT band

A

no it is fascia

63
Q

what are the two joint muscles in the knees

A

rec fem

gastroc

64
Q

what combine movement causes valgus collapse

A

hip ADD

Hip IR

knee ER

Knee abd

65
Q

what does valgus collaspe result in

A

greater lateral tension on the patella

66
Q

wha is knee injury is valgus collaspe predictive of

A

PFPS

67
Q

what does a compensated trendelenburg do to the knee

A

the creates an external knee valgus moment

68
Q

what is a compensated trendelenburg

A

when someone with a tren performs a hip hike to prevent hip drop

69
Q

what muscles can contribute to valgus collapse

A

weak hip abd/ER

decreased or delayed actiativation of the VMO

70
Q

can you selectivly strengthen the VMO

A

no the quads always activate together

71
Q

what factor can lead to altered patella loading

A

limited patella mobility

lateral fibers tight
