Lecture 5: Pelvis and Limb Flashcards
How can you determine the siding of a coccyx bone? (3 things)
- Tip of iliac crest points interior
- Acetabulum faces laterally
- Ischial tuberosity points posterior
What are the 8 characteristics to determine a male or a female pelvis?
What two surfaces articulate between the tibia and femur?
Tibial plateau & femoral condylar
What are the segments of the foot bones? Name the bones
Tarsus, Metatarsals, Phalanges
Name the 10 ligaments of the pelvis. (one on the back you can’t see)
What are the 4 joints of the pelvis and what type are they?
Sacro-iliac joint: synovial and syndesmosis
Pubic Symphysis: secondary cartilaginous
Lumbosacral joint: similar to vertebral joint
Acetabular-femoral joint: ball and socket
What are the nerves of the lumbar plexus?
Where are the nerves found in the lumbar plexus?
Where are the nerves found in the sacral plexus?
What motion do the ACL and PCL help with? What are the two test methods?
ACL = resist posterior movement of femur (anterior movement of tibia), anterior drawer test
PCL = anterior movement of femur (posterior movement of tibia), posterior drawer test
____ runs from lateral femur to medial fibula and _______ runs from medial femur to lateral fibula
ACL, PCL
How do you name the ligaments of the foot?
Based on the attachment sites
What nerve innervates all anterior thigh muscles?
femoral and cause flexion of hip joint
What is the difference between adductor brevis and pectineus?
Brevis, inferior ramus of pubis
Pectineus = superior ramus of pubis
List all these muscles
What are the short rotator muscles of the hip?
Name all these nerves.
What are the 3 borders of the femoral triangle?
sartorius, inguinal ligament, adductor longus
What are the contents of the femoral triangle?
Femoral nerve, artery, and vein
What are the nerves of the lower limb?
What are the borders of the popliteal fossa and what are its contents?
Biceps femoris, semimembranosus, gastrocnemius
Popliteal artery, popliteal fossa, tibial nerve, common fibular nerve
_____ is a pure plantar flexor
