small saphenous veins

A

travel posterior to lateral malleolus and courses up posterior leg and empties into popliteal vein

23
Q

great saphenous vein

A

travels anterior to medial malleolus then posterior to medial femoral condyle and up medial thigh to empty into femoral vein vis saphenous opening

24
Q

lumbar plexus

-posterior femoral cutaneous nerve -

29
Q

sciatic nerve

A

-passes through greater sciatic foramen and enters posterior thigh
-innervates bicep femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus

30
Q

what does sciatic nerve divide into

A

tibial nerve and common fibular nerve

31
Q

tibial nerve

A

-innervate popliteus, gastrocnemius, plantaris, soleus, tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus, flexor hallucis longus, muscles of the sole feet.
ALL POSTERIOR LEG MUSCLES

32
Q

sural nerve

A

arises from tibial and common fibular nerves

33
Q

common fibular nerve

A

-divides into superficial and deep fibular nerves
-innervates fibularis longus, brevis, tertius, tibialis anterior, extensor digitorum longus and brevis, and extensor hallucis longus and brevis
ALL ANTERIOR LEG MUSCLES

34
Q

hip joint

A

-ball and socket joint
-has labrum that limits motion of femur head

35
Q

ligamentum teres

A

-intracapsular ligament
-connects acetabulum notch to fovea capitis

36
Q

3 extracapsular thickenings

A

-iliofemoral ligament
-pubofemoral ligament
-ischiofemoral ligament
-stabilizing joint

37
Q

muscle tendons surrounding hip joint

A

for stability

38
Q

knee joint

A

-patellofemoral (plane) joint and tibiofemoral (hinge) joint
-most complex
-plane and hinge joint

39
Q

patellofemoral joint

A

plane joint that allows patella to glide over patella surface

40
Q

tibiofemoral joint

A

-synovial joint
-complex synovial cavity
-communicating extensions
-noncommunicating bursa
-medial and later menisci

41
Q

medial and lateral menisci

A

attach to condyles of tibia and stabilize the knee joint

42
Q

extracapsular ligaments of knee

A

-medial collateral ligament
-lateral collateral ligament
-oblique popliteal ligament

**reinforces the joint

43
Q

intracapsular ligaments of the knee

A

-anterior cruciate
-posterior cruciate

44
Q

anterior cruciate ligament

A

prevents anterior sliding of tibia on femur

45
Q

posterior cruciate ligament

A

prevents posterior sliding of tibia on femur

46
Q

during extension femor…

A

medially rotates on tibia by locking the knee by keeping the cruciate ligaments taut

47
Q

ankle joint

A

-hinge joint between inferior ends of tibia and fibula and talus

48
Q

intertarsal joints

A

inversion/eversion

49
Q

deltoid ligament

A

medial malleolus to navicular

50
Q

lateral ligament

A

consists of three bands:
-anterior and posterior talofibular ligament
-calcaneofibular ligament -

51
Q

inferior ends of tibia and fibula joined together by

A

anterior and posterior tibiofibular ligaments and interosseous membrane

52
Q

hilton’s law

A

any nerve that innervates a muscle producing movement at a joint also innervates the joint itself
