(38 cards)
Coxa Norma ?
• An increased femoral angle is called….
• a decreased femoral angle is called….
-coxa valga
-coxa vara.
Complications of abnormal femoral angles ?
Abnormal angles increase stress on the hip joint and affect gait due to length discrepancy between the 2 lower limbs
Define increases femoral anteversion
Complications of femoral anteversion ?
Commonest causes of Swelling in femoral triangle ?
The Iliopsoas tendon passes (posterior/anterior) to the inguinal ligament and (posterior/anterior) to the hip joint, inserting on the lesser trochanter.
Posterior , anterior
Cause of Psoas Abscess ?
How does the great and saphenous veins arise ?
And how do they end ?
Superficial veins of the lower limb ?
great and saphenous veins
A vein that accompanies the sural nerve ?
The Small (short) saphenous vein
A nerve that accompanies the Small (short) saphenous vein ?
The sural nerve
Drainage of the vertical group of the Superficial inguinal lymph nodes ?
Drainage of the lateral members of the horizontal group of the Superficial inguinal lymph nodes ?
The Gluteal region
Drainage of the medial members of the horizontal group of the Superficial inguinal lymph nodes ?
Perineum including ;
- the inferior vagina and
-the lower part of the anal canal and
- external genitalia EXCLUDING the glans penis in male.
Superficial inguinal lymph nodes ;
illustrate the lymphatic drainage of each group
illustrate the passage of efferent lymphatics from the superficial inguinal lymph nodes
