Question 1

What is concentric, isometric and eccentric contraction?

Answer 1

Concentric contraction is the shortening of muscle to cause movement.

Isometric keeping a limb elevated in space, prevent moving.

Eccentric contraction is slowly lengthening.

Question 2

What would use fast anterograde and retrograde transports?

What would use slow anterograde transport?

Answer 2

Fast: vesicles, endosomes mitochondria

Slow: cytoskeleton, proteins,

Question 3

Describe the exocytosis of neurotransmitter.

Answer 3

When an action potential reaches the terminal, it opens calcium channels leading to calcium influx.

Neurotransmitter is in vesicles bound to the terminal web (actin filaments) through synapsin I.

Camodulin dependent protein kinase phosphorylates synapsin I which releases the vesicles and they move into the ACTIVE ZONE.

Then Vsnares (VAMP) and T snares are the fusion process but calcium is what stimulates fusion.

These are thought to be regulated by synaptotagmins.

Question 4

Describe the 4 support cells in the CNS.

Answer 4

Ependymal cells = line ventricles of brain and spinal canal. Most of them are bound together by adhering junctions but in the choroid plexus they are tight junctions. (Choroid plexus is a vascularized, secretory structure that produces cerebrospinal fluid and the ependymal cells will regulate transfer of material and transfer of ions from blood stream. Protruding into the ventricle are cilia that move cerebrospinal throughout the body.

Microglia does not have a CNS origin and they clear dying cells from neural damage, eliminate inactive synapses, neurons, and useless glial, and lastly IMMUNE function by recruiting leukocytes past the blood brain barrier to interact with astrocytes.

Astrocytes: unique structures featuring GFAP (intermediate filament) that link capillaries to neurons.
1-they provide structural support
2-potassium sinks at nodes of ranvier and initial segment (sent to each other via gap junctions
3-segregate synapses, if inactive they move away and allow NT to diffuse, if active they tightly associate.
4-they can be signaled by NT (change their shape, their membrane permeability, their tropic factors)
5-blood brain barrier: although the tight junctions at endothelial cells is what is segregating blood and neurons, the astrocytes release factors to influence the tightness and passage of materials and regulate blood flow to brain.
6. Immune response, they also clean up neuronal debris.

Oligodendrocytes: form myelin sheath (INITIAL SEGMENT IS NOT MYELINATED). One oligodendrocyte wraps like 40-50 axons.
Major dense lines - cytoplasmic faces to one other
Intraperiod lines are the extracellular faces to one another linked by PLP.

Paranodal region: separation of myelin at the major dense lines exposing the cytoplasm allowing for communication with the axon from oligodendrocyte to axon.

Question 5

What is the adhesion protein of intraperiod lines for schwann cell wrapping around on internode.

Answer 5

Po protein.

Question 6

Describe the organization of a nerve in the PNS.

Answer 6

The nerve is wrapped by the epineurium.

Each nerve contains multiple fascicles, each wrapped by the perineurium.

Within the fascicle are a bunch of nerve fibers.

Each nerve fiber is wrapped by endoneurium, then BM, then Schwann cell then axon.

Question 7

For X-rays what is radiopaque and radiolucent?

What is the order of material?

Besides material, what else effects X-rays?

What does a left lateral projection mean?

How does distance from film affect the xray?

Answer 7

Radiopaque refers to brighter items (white)…because it is absorbing all the light.

Radiolucent means the xray goes right through.

From radiopaque to most radiolucent,

Heavy metal, enamel, bone, water density (muscle, cartilage, tendon, blood, nerve, connective tissue), fat, air.

The thickness because the thicker an object is, the more radiopaque. Less light gets through to film.

left lateral projection means the left side is facing the film.

Distance: the farther away from the film, the more light refracts onto the film. So larger and blurrier (lower resolution).

Question 8

What inserts to the radial tuberosity?

What are the origins of the biceps brachi and coracobrachiales?

What does brachiales attach to?

Where do each of the triceps originate and attach.

Where does the latissimus dorsi attach and what is its action?

Answer 8

The biceps brachi inserts into radial tuberosity.

Biceps long head originates in superglenoid tubercle.

Short head originates from the coracoid process.

Coracobrachiales originates from coracoid process.

Brachiales insert into the coronoid process of the ulna.

Triceps long head originates from infraglenoid tubercle and attaches to olecron process of the ulna (elbow)

Triceps lateral and medial head goes from posterior (above and then below radial groove) of humerus to olecron. All three triceps head share a common tendon to olecron.

Latissimus dorsi is interesting. Its huge, attaches to inferior scapula, spine, and iliac crest but it only inserts into the anterior arm. All actions are on arm. Extension, adduction, and internal/medial rotation of arm.

Question 9

What are the walls of the axilla?

Answer 9

Lateral wall is the humerus with bicipital groove.

Medial wall is the serratus anterior (innervated by the thoracoacromial nerve)

Anterior is the pecs

Posterior is the lats, teres major, and subscapularis.

Question 10

Where does the teres minor and major originate and attach.

And what are their movements and innervations?

Answer 10

Teres major originates lateral to the inferior angle and attaches to front part of the humerus (aligned with the lesser tubercle and just superior to the latissimus dorsi attachment)

Innervation: lower subscapular

Teres minor originates from lateral scapula and inserts into GREATER tubercle.

Important for external rotation and adduction of the arm.

Innervation: axillary.

Question 11

What composes the anatomic snuffbox?

Hint: all originate form the posterior forearm.

Answer 11

Anterior wall: tendon of abductor policies longus
Tendon of extensor policis brevis
Tendon of extensor policis longus

Posterior wall: tendon of extensor policis longus.

Medial wall: scaphoid

*You can find the radial artery

(SANDWICH: extensor policis brevis is between extensor longus and abductor policis longus)

Question 12

Where does the subscapular attach. What are its movements and innervations?

Answer 12

Subscapular attaches to the LESSER TUBERCLE. It is aligned with the attachments of the teres major and lats. This is why they all together form the posterior wall of the axilla.

Motion: internal rotation

Nerve: lower and upper subscapular nerves

Arteries: circumflex scapular artery, dorsal scapular artery, suprascapular artery

Question 13

What does pec minor attach to, actions, innervations.

Answer 13

Pec minor originates from the coracoid process.

Nerve: medial pectoral nerve (C8-T1)

Artery: lateral thoracic artery

Question 14

what do the dorsal scapular nerve and artery innervate?

Answer 14

Nerve and artery: rhomboids minor, major and levator scapulae.

Artery: also subscapular anastomosis.

Question 15

what does autonomic neurons supply and what is its path?

Where do you find prevertebral ganglion.

How about parasympathetic efferents?

Answer 15

Autonomic supplies cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and glands.

To reach a gland in the trunk, leaves lateral horn (T1-L2), leaves ventral root, enters spinal nerve, enters ventral rami, enters the white communicans, synapses on postganglion and then postganglion axon exits the grey communicans into the spinal and then ventral ramus.

Gland of cervix would be same (has to be T1) until you reach the paravertebral, your axon will shoot up, synapse on postganglion in the corresponding segment, then axon will exit gray and exit spinal nerve.

Parasympathetic: cranial and sacral preganglion, synapses really distal at the terminal ganglia of the wall of the organ they innervate.

Question 16

What sensations are conveyed by somatic and visceral afferents.

Where are their cell bodies located?

How would visceral afferents travel? (Referred pain)

Answer 16

Somatic: pain, temperature, touch, propioception

Visceral: hunger, nausea, dissension

Locations:
Somatic: dorsal root ganglia from C2 to coccyx.

Visceral: dorsal root ganglia from T1 and L2

They’d come from the organ and travel down the paravertebral until they reach like T1 or T2, exit via the white communicans and then they synapse at the dorsal horn.

Referred pain: where the visceral afferent synapses, you can feel pain in the dermatome region of the corresponding somatic afferents which also synapse at that dorsal horn.

Question 17

Which muscles are rotators of the arm?

Answer 17

Lateral rotation:

2. Infraspinatus (greater tubercle)
3. Teres minor (greater tubercle)

Medial rotation:

Teres major
Latissimus dorsi
1. Subscapular (lesser tubercle).

Deltoids do both rotation.

Question 18

What are the 4 abductors of the shoulder?

Answer 18

Deltoid, upper and lower trapezius, supraspinatus, serratus anterior.

Question 19

Describe the elbow joint.

Answer 19

Lateral epicondyle is smaller and features your extensors.

Medial epicondyle is larger and features your flexors.

The medial part is your trochlea (groove) which your coronoid process of the ulna fits into (ulna articulates best)

Capitulum is your ball.

Ulna has the olecranon which your triceps tendon) attaches to.

Radial tuberosity is the insertion site for the biceps brachi.

Question 20

what is titin and what is nebulin

What is desmin?

Answer 20

Titin goes from Z line to M line and generates passive tension and prevents overstretching

Nebulin goes from Z band until the end of actin filaments. This is used to regulate thin filament length.

Desmin is an IF that wraps around the Z disk and connects neighboring myofibrils. So there is coordinated contraction of adjacent myofibrils.

Question 21

What does the fibular nerve innervate?

Answer 21

The common fibular nerve: innervates the short head of the biceps femoris directly.

The other branches supplies lateral and anterior compartment of the leg. (Deep and superficial branches).

Question 22

How does hyperkalemia reduce excitability of neurons and muscle cells?

Answer 22

Depolarization will inactivate voltage gated sodium channels

Question 23

Which of the muscles are likely hurt by a nerve injury via a glenohumeral joint dislocation

Answer 23

It would be directed inferioy and affect the axillary nerve which innervates deltoid and teres minor

Question 24

What functional deficit can occur from lesion of the lateral cord with reduced sensation of lateral forearm?

Answer 24

It means there is likely damage to the nerve fibers that become the musculocutaneous. So itll likely affect supination as the biceps are good supinators

Question 25

Person has buldge in anterior arm and popping sound in upper arm when flexing. He has weak flexors and supination.

Answer 25

Avulsion fracture of supraglenoid tubercle which attaches to biceps long head

Question 26

GTO

Answer 26

Only detects tension, not rate. So it may be for contraction but it can also detect passive stretch.

Question 27

Describe the organization of skeletal muscle.

Answer 27

Filaments make up organized sarcomeres. Sarcomeres one after another form the myofilaments. Myofilaments surrounded by sarcoplasmic reticulum become myofibrils. Many myofibrils surrounded by a endomysium become the muscle fiber/cell. Bundles of myofibers surrounded by the perimysium become a muscle fascicle. Epimysium surrounds many fascicles and this is the muscle

Question 28

How is cardiac muscle different from skeletal muscle?

Answer 28

Skeletal muscle has peripheral nuclei Cardiac muscle has one or two centrally located nuclei. Skeletal: fascicles, has connective tissue Cardiac: no organized connective tissue, so there is more disorganized CT between cells. Skeletal: T tubule at A I bands line Cardiac: T tubule at Z line Cardiac has special purkinje fibers, spontaneous rhythmic contraction under involuntary control. (They have larger and paler cells) Specific cell to cell boundaries: intercalated discs, belt desmosomes, spot desmosomes, gap junctions. Various shapes.

Question 29

How is smooth muscle unique?

Answer 29

indistinguishable cell borders, spindle shapes, almost no CT between cells One centrally located nuclei No striations No t-tubules Looks like dense connective much many more nuclei. Surrounds a blood vessel. They have invaginations called caveolae which has an accumulation of vesicles. Feature gap junctions.

Question 30

What are the only three muscles innervated by the anterior interroseus. What are the only two muscles innervated by the radial nerve? What does the radial artery and ulnar artery become distally?

Answer 30

Anterior interosseus nerve: deep anterior forearm: 1. pronator quadratis, 2. medial half of digitorum profundus, 3. flexor pollicis longus Radial nerve: 1. Brachioradialis 2. Extensor Carpi radialis longus. Ulnar artery is the main supplier of blood to the hand. It forms the superficial palmar arch. The radial artery becomes the deep palmar arch.

Question 31

What does the circumflex scapular artery innervate?

Answer 31

The circumflex scapular innervates the teres major, minor and the infraspinatus. It is a branch of the subscapular artery/

Question 32

What is Erbs palsy and Klumpke's palsy?

Answer 32

Erb's is upper trunk injury due primary to forceful separation between shoulder and neck. Proximal limb structures are affected, intrinsic shoulder muscles, axillary wall muscles. Limb is held in an extended, adducted, medially rotated, hand is probated (waiter sign) Sensory loss along lateral side of distal arm and proximal forearm (C5-C6) dermatome. Klumpke's is a lower trunk injury. Caused by upward traction on the upper limb or compression of the thoracic outlet via a cervical rib. Affects the intrinsic muscles of the hand. Thenar, hypothenar and interossei are atrophied. Clawing of digits 2-5, loss of abduction and adduction of fingers and sensory loss along the medial side of forearm and proximal forearm. (C8-T1)

Question 33

Describe a median nerve injury. How it happens, symptoms, variability.

Answer 33

Median injury can be caused by laceration to the wrist, injury to the cubita fossa (supracondylar fracture), inflammation in the carpel tunnel, hypertrophy of the pronator teres it runs under/through. Symptoms: Cutaneous sensory loss on lateral side of palm (ulnar is the medial side) Injury at wrist level: flexion and abduction of thumb is still possible because of flexor pollicis longus (anterior interosseous) and abductor pollicis longus (posterior interosseous). Thenar atrophy, clawing of digits 2 and 3, loss of opposition - this is the best test for median nerve injury proximal or distal because both would have this symptom. More proximally: loss of flexor digitorum superficiales, flexor pollicis longus and brevis, radial half of flexor profundas, flexor carpi radiales. Inability to flex fingers 1-3 (Hand of benediction) and wrist flexion would tilt to the ulnar side.

Question 34

What are the medical terms you should know for sensory and muscle weakness?

Answer 34

Paresis: partial weakness of muscle Paresthesia: numbness and tingling Hypoesthesia: reduced sensation.

Question 35

Write your presentation for axillary and musculocutaneous nerve.

Answer 35

The musculocutaneous nerve is arises from the lateral cord and contains rami (C5-C7). It innervates the muscles of the anterior arm such as the biceps brachi, the coracobrachiales and the brachiales. A branch of the musculocutaneous is the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve and as the name implies, it serves the sensory information for the lateral forearm. Injury to this nerve is uncommon and the most likely cause is a penetrating wound. With weakness of the anterior arm muscles you will get weakness of shoulder flexion, elbow flexion and supination. The brachioradialis will still function as an elbow flexor since it is innervated by the radial nerve. The axillary nerve arises from the posterior cord and it contains the rami C5-C6. It is found with the posterior humeral circumflex in the quadrangular space which boundaries are the long head of the triceps, teres major and minor, subscapularis and the humerus. It supplies the deltoid and teres minor. Injury to this nerve can occur by glenohumeral dislocation or fracture of the surgical neck of the humerus. Teres minor is a weak lateral rotator compared to other lateral rotators such as the deltoids, infraspinatus. The best test for a nerve injury to the axillary nerve would be abduction as that is the strongest movement for the delts. You would also get sensory of the skin overlying the deltoids. The long term effect would also be atrophy of the deltoids.

Question 36

How would you test flexor digitorum superificiales versus flexor digitorum profundas?

Answer 36

Pull three fingers back. Since the profundas share a common tendon, they're effectively all stretched so if you flex it is only the superficial at work.

Question 37

What composes the femoral triangle?

Answer 37

Lateral: medial border of sartorius (attachment is iliac spine, abduction and flexion of hip, medial rotation at knee, lateral rotation at hip) Medial: adductor longus (attaches the femur) Superior: inguinal ligament The triangle contains the femoral vein, artery, nerve. Females need a virtuous love. (Nerve is most lateral)

Question 38

Describe the nerves of the thigh

Answer 38

The femoral is a posterior division but innervates the anterior compartment (hip flexors and knee extensors) The Obturator is a anterior division and innervates the medial thigh. This is for hip adduction The tibial nerve is an anterior division and innervates the posterior compartment of the thigh (hip extension, knee flexion).

Question 39

Answer 39

Hip flexion: 1. Iliopsoas attaches to lesser trochanter (L2, L3 + femoral) 2. Tensor fascia lata - iliac spine > iliotibial tract (superior gluteal nerve) 3. Sartorius attaches iliac spine>medial tibia (femoral) 4. Rectus femoris - femur > patella, femoral nerve Knee extension Vastus intermedius Vastus lateralis Vastus medialies All three originate from the femur to attach to the patella.

Question 40

Knee extension: L3-L4 Dorsi flexion: L4-L5 Autonomous sensory zone between big toe and second toe: L5

Question 44

Describe the path of the arteries throughout the lower limb What are the components of the cruciate anastomosis

Answer 44

1. The abdominal splits in two, one for each leg. This is the common iliac artery 2. The common iliac artery splits in the internal iliac artery and the external iliac artery which becomes the femoral. These two are connected at the cruciate anastomosis. Internal iliac: superior and inferior gluteal and obturator (gluteal region, medial thigh, and head of femur) 3. The deep femoral will branch off the femoral and supply the thigh. The medial femoral circumflex and the lateral femoral circumflex. The medial femoral circumflex is the main supplier of the hip and thigh (head of femur). - this is why fracture of the femoral neck usually results in tearing the medial circumflex femoral artery. The head of the femur is not well vascularized so a fracture will likely result in avascular necrosis Perforating arteries off the deep branch supply the posterior thigh 4. The femoral artery travels through the adductor hiatus and goes behind the knee to become the popliteal artery. The genicular artery branches off and supplies the knee. 5. Anterior tibial and posterior tibial branch of the popliteal and supply the anterior and posterior leg. 6. Fibular, medial plantar, and dorsal plantar all branch off the posterior tibial artery. Fibular artery supplies the posterior and lateral leg (so different from the anterior supplying fibular nerve) Medial plantar supplies medial sole and lateral plantar supplies the lateral sole. -the fibular artery travels to the lateral foot -the lateral plantar arch is the main supplier of the foot as the ulnar arch is to the hand. 7. The dorsal pedis is a continuation of the anterior tibial artery and runs between the extensor hallucis longus and extensor digitorum longus Cruciate anastomosis: medial and lateral circumflex femoral artery, perforating artery and inferior gluteal artery.

Answer 46

Iliofemoral ligament Ischiofemoral ligament Pubofemoral ligament And weak ass round ligament of femur Iliofemoral is the strongest All of them prevent hyperextension.

Question 47

Describe pelvic tilt

Answer 47

When one leg is unsupported, your center of gravity shifts toward that unsupported limb and so your pelvic is being tilted toward the unsupported limb. Well then you can imagine its the hip abductors that keep the pelvis leveled Weakness of the abductors results in Tredenlenberg gait.

Question 48

Dorsum (extensor digitorum longus) 1. Extensor hallucis longus 2. Tendon of the tibialis anterior 3. Tendon of the tibialis posterior 4. Tendon of the flexor digitorum longus 5. Posterior tibial artery (which then branches into the medial and lateral plantar arteries) 6. Tibial nerve 7. Flexor hallucis longus.

Question 70

What occurs in compartment syndrome?

Answer 70

Because the crural fascia is so tight and inelastic and the vasculature is right against the interosseous membrane, for any muscle swelling or hypertrophy, you will compress the vasculature. In the anterior leg it would be the deep fibular and the anterior tibial artery. This could result in acute venous thromboembolism because it causes blood clots. The treatment is a fasciotomy to relieve the pressure and allow fluid to be released.

Question 71

What are the three joints of the ankle?

Answer 71

Talocrural (wedge) - talus and the groove created by the lateral and medial malleolus - only allows two movements, dorsiflexion and plantar flexion. Subtalar - talus and calcaneous - it's a hinge joint allowing for inversion/eversion at the ankle Transverse Tarsal (2 joints) - between the calcaneous and the cuboid + navicular bones. - allows for inversion and eversion in the midfoot.

Question 72

What is a supinator and pronator of walking?

Answer 72

Place your hand flat on the table to mimic a foot. What is easier? Further pronation or supination? Same goes for the foot. Supination is easier. Pronator- foot is dorsiflexed, abducted, and everted Inner edge is worn out. Supination - foot is plantar flexed, adducted and inversion. Outer heal contacts floor

Question 73

What is the innervation of the foot?

Answer 73

Dorsum Motor: deep fibular (Extensor digitorum longus) Sensory: superficial fibular (L5) **Deep fibular (the webbing of the big toe) Plantar Motor: Tibial (flexor digitorum longus and plantar flexion) Sensory: Tibial nerve becoming the medial and lateral plantar nerves (medial plantar runs medial) So they run with the plantar arteries as well. One way to think of it is that the posterior tibial artery is giving off the fibular artery to supply the posterior deep and superficial compartment of the leg along with the lateral leg as is what the superficial fibular nerve also innervates. Superficial fibular and fibular artery run together likely and then the deep fibular and anterior tibial artery run together. And then continuing to become the arches.

Question 74

Which comes first, motor or sensory loss?

Answer 74

Sensory loss (hypoesthesia) will PRECEDE motor loss (paresis) If brought to the ED quick enough after injury, you will see this. So sensory loss will tell us the expected motor loss.

Question 75

What is the cutaneous sensation of the hand?

Answer 75

3. 5 fingers (palmar and dorsum-*except the dorsum of the thumb) traced to the wrist through the palm is all median nerve. 1. 5 fingers (palmar and dorsum) to wrist is ulnar which also wraps around to include the ulnar portion of the dorsum of hand Radial nerve - picks up what the median doesn't, the median half of the dorsum of the hand, and the dorsum of the thumb.

Question 76

What runs together?

Answer 76

1. Saphenous nerve (continuation of the femoral nerve) and great saphenous vein. 2. Obturator nerve and obturator artery (branch of internal iliac) 3. Deep fibular nerve runs with anterior tibial artery 4. Superficial fibular nerve runs with fibular artery (branch of posterior tibial artery) 5. Medial plantar and lateral plantar nerves (branches of tibial nerve) run respectively with the medial and lateral plantar arteries (branches of the posterior tibial artery) 6. Posterior to the medial malleolus - posterior tibial artery runs with tibial nerve. 7. Suprascapular artery runs above the suprascapular nerve separated by the superior transverse ligament 8. The spinal accessory nerve and the transverse cervical artery run together to supply the trapezius 9. The lateral thoracic artery runs with the long thoracic nerve to supply the serratus anterior and pecs. 10. The dorsal scapular nerve and dorsal scapular artery run together to supply the levator scapulae and rhomboids 11. The axillary nerve runs superior with the posterior humeral circumflex to supply the deltoids 12. The radial nerve runs with the deep brachial artery in the triceps hiatus 13. The radial and ulnar nerves run outside the radial and ulnar arteries in the forearm 14. The median nerve runs media to the brachial artery in the cubital fossa 15. Superior and inferior gluteal nerve and arteries run together (branch of internal iliac) 16. Tibial and common fibular nerves run together in the sciatic nerve. (They split at the popliteal)

Question 77

What attaches to the greater trochanter and what is the only thing that attaches to the lesser trochanter and what does it do?

Answer 77

Greater are all the Hip abductors and rotators (lateral and medial) Lesser is only the iliopsoas (hip flexor) The adductors will attach to some intertrochanteric line which is what?.. i dunno.

Question 78

Which muscles are responsible for the following actions Hip flexion Hip extension Knee flexion Knee extension Hip adduction Hip abduction Medial rotators Lateral rotators

Answer 78

Hip flexion: Rectus femoris, gluteus minimi and medius, tensor fascia lata, illiopsoas Minor-pectineus, sartorius adductors Hip extension: gluteus maximus, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris (long head only), adductor magnus (has some tibial running through it) Knee flexion - biceps femoris short head, biceps femoris long head, semitendinosus, semimembranosus, gracilis (medial side of the thigh) Hamstring = semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femori, Knee extension- vastus muscles (thats it) Hip abductors - gluteus medius, minimi, tensor fascia lata Minor: sartorius, PIRIFORMIS, obturator externus Hip adductors - adductor longus, brevis, magnus, Minor: PECTINEUS, gracilis Medial rotation: gluteus minimus, medius, tensor fascia lata (THATS IT) Lateral rotation: obturator internus (so externus is abduction and lateral rotation), obturator externus, gemelli, QUADS

Answer 83

5 pairs of phalanges 5 Metatarsals 3 Cuneiforms (only first three toes) Other two get a cuboid bone 3 Cuneiforms attach to a navicular bone Tarsus attaches to navicular bone Calcaneous attaches to the cuboid bone. The tarsus rests on the sustentaculum tali

Question 84

Which muscles are responsible for dorsiflexion?

Answer 84

Tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus.

Question 85

When you are standing still what is gravity trying to do at the joints and what is the resistance Add in swaying

Answer 85

Hip - the gravity vector is behind so hyperextension of the hip - this is resisted by the iliofemoral and ischiofemoral and pubofemoral ligaments. If you swayed posteriorly, you would get the additional help of the illiopsoas and rectus femoris - anterior sway, pelvis wants to roll on femur and cause flexion. That would be resisted by the hamstrings and the gluteus maximus which is recruited with a lot of force. Knee - the gravity vector is in front of the knee (only standing) so it wants hyperextension of the knee. This is resisted by the posterior joint capsule and the oblique popliteal ligament. If you sway even more anteriorly, then the knee flexors (semitendinosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris will kick in) -posterior sway - would want to cause the femur to roll on the tibia and cause knee flexion, knee extensors, the quads would resist Ankle. - gravity vector is in front so you want dorsi flexion. (This is resisted by the gastrocnemius and soleus.) -posterior sway - would want plantar flexion resisted by the extensor digitorum longus and the tibialis anterior

Question 86

Generally describe the stance and swing phases of the gait cycle

Answer 86

Heel strike - heel contacts the ground Flat foot - plantar flexion to flatten foot Midstance - the leg is directly under the torso Heel off - heel comes off Toe off - toe comes off and this starts the swing cycle. Swing Acceleration - once it is off, your trunk is anterior to the leg so your leg needs to accelerate to catch up Mid swing - the leg swings directly under the trunk Deceleration - you need to slow down for heel strike.

Question 87

What happens at heel strike?

Answer 87

Hip joint: center of gravity is in front of the hip joint so you want flexion of the hip Knee joint: center of gravity is behind the knee joint so you want flexion of the knee Ankle joint: center of gravity is behind the ankle joint (because of heel strike) so you want plantar flexion. Hip: resisted by hamstrings + gluteus maximus Knee joint: resisted by quadriceps. Ankle joint: resisted by tibialis anterior. What would you see in patients that have each of these injured? Inferior gluteal nerve injury: they would tilt forward so they would throw shoulders backwards everytime they step with the side of the weak gluteus maximus Femoral nerve injury: they would tilt forward to prevent flexion at the knee. However you tilt forward just at the hip already so thats out of the picture. Instead bring the axis of rotation at the knee closer to you. Use the force of gravity and pushing at the thigh since quads are knee extensors. Segmental nerve injury (weakened tibialis): they would not have controlled dorsiflexion so they would foot slap

Question 88

What happens at midstance

Answer 88

One foot is planted directly below the trunk and the other is in the air. Planted foot has no movement at hip, wants flexion at knee (typical) and wants dorsiflexion at ankle (typical) Quads + gastrosoleus The thing to take into account is the weak abductors. Pelvis will tilt to unsupported side but without abductors you will have the tilt. Remedy of patient is to tilt shoulder toward the supported side so that gravity is acting as an abductor.

Question 89

What happens during mid swing?

Answer 89

Hip is no movement, the foot is passing directly under you. Behind the knee so knee flexion. Infront of the ankle so dorsiflexion. So still quads and gastrosoleus The interesting thing about this is that during swing, your ankle is always dorsiflexed (tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus). If you can't you would go toe first or because your leg is longer with toe out, you will hit the ground mid swing. They have a steppage gait because they elevate their foot to step so that they don't hit their toe during treading.

Question 90

What would happen to gait with a common fibular injury near the fibula head?

Answer 90

You would injure your superficial and deep branches. You would not only get a paralysis of the tibialis anterior and therefore get steppage gait, you would also affect you ability to evert (fibularis longus and brevis). These are lateral leg muscles and innervated by the superficial branch. You lack tibialis anterior, an inverter but you still have tibialis posterior, (innervated by the posterior tibial nerve). Their gait would also have their foot slightly inverted and that would be supinator walk.

Question 91

What does supination and pronation mean for the foot?

Answer 91

Supination is inversion Pronation is eversion.

Question 92

What attaches to the tibial tuberosity?

Answer 92

The patellar ligament which attaches to the quadriceps tendon proximally.

Question 93

What is intermittent claudication What may erectile dysfunction be a result of?

Answer 93

It is a result of occlusive disease due to increased demand of blood flow during an activity. Pain will be felt distal to the occlusion. Aortoiliac occlusion will have pain in the buttocks and thigh. Femoral occlusion will have pain in the calf Occlusive disease in the popliteal artery, tibial, or fibular arteries will result in pain in foot. Aortoiliac occlusion may lead to erectile dysfunction because external and internal pudendal arteries come from the iliac artery or common femoral artery. They both supply the scrotum and penis so yeah.

Question 94

What are the muscles of the anterior forearm?

Answer 94

From radial to ulnar Superficial: pronator teres > flexor carpi radialis > palmaris longus > flexor carpi ulnaris (ulnar nerve) Intermediate: flexor digitorum superficiales Deep: pronator quadratus, flexor pollicis longus (carpel tunnel), flexor digitorum profundas

Question 95

What muscles are in the Posterior forearm?

Answer 95

Radius to ulnar Brachioradialis > extensor carpi longus > extensor carpi brevis > extensor digitorum > extensor digiti minimi > extensor carpi ulnaris ``` Deep Supinator (where the posterior interosseous emerges from)> Abductor pollicis longus > extensor pollicis brevis > extensor pollicis longus > extensor indices. ```

Question 96

where does the anterior tibial artery run between?

Answer 96

It runs between the muscles of the extensor digitorum (LATERAL) and extensor hallucis longus (MEDIAL)

Question 97

As a sesamoid bone, the pisiform is part of which tendon?

Answer 97

Tendon of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle

Question 98

What passes through the greater sciatic foramen? What passes through the lesser

Answer 98

Greater sciatic foramen: Piriformis muscle and the superior and inferior gluteal vessels. Above the piriformis - superior gluteal nerve Below the piriformis - inferior gluteal nerve Pudendal nerve Sciatic nerve. Lesser sciatic foramen: Internal pudendal vessels, pudendal nerve, obturator internus tendon and its nerve.

Question 99

What is the order of vasculature in the popliteal fossa?

Answer 99

Medial Popliteal artery- popliteal vein - tibial nerve (lateral)
