40
Give the following for the Vastus Muscles: Common Insertion
Tibial Tuberosity
41
What is it called when a patellar reflex is absent?
Westphal's Sign
42
What is Osgood Schlatter Disease?
During running and jumping activities, a child’s quadriceps can pull on the Patellar Ligament causing a slight (incomplete) avulsion of the Tibial Tuberosity. Osteogenesis can lead to a bony growth at the location of the avulsion.
43
What is the action of the Iliopsoas?
Chief flexor of the Hip
44
What is the innervation of the Iliopsoas?
Illiacus: Femoral Nerve Psoas Major: L1-L3 Ventral Rami
45
What is the insertion of the Iliopsoas?
The Lesser Trochanter of the Femur
46
What is the origin of the Iliopsoas?
Iliacus: Upper portion of the Iliac Fossa Psoas Major: Bodies of T12 to L5
47
What nerve roots are being tested when a physician strikes the Calcaneal Tendon with a reflex hammer?
S1-S2
48
What nerve roots are tested when a physician checks the patellar reflex?
L2-L4
49
What separates the Anterior and Medial Compartments of the Thigh?
The Medial Intermuscular Septum
50
What Septum is contiguous with the IT Tract?
The Lateral Intermuscular Septum
51
What Septum separates the Anterior and Posterior Compartments of the Thigh?
The Lateral Intermuscular Septum
52
What spinal roots give rise to the Common Fibular Branch of the Sciatic Nerve?
L4-S2
53
What spinal roots give rise to the Femoral Nerve?
L2-L4
54
What spinal roots give rise to the Obturator Nerve?
L2-L4
55
What spinal roots give rise to the Sciatic Nerve?
L4-S3
56
What spinal roots give rise to the Tibial Branch of the Sciatic Nerve?
L4-S3
57
What three Bursae can be found on the lateral side of the knee?
Bursa Deep to the IT Tract Bursa Deep to the Fibular Collateral Ligament Bursa Deep to the Biceps Femoris
58
What three muscles insert onto the Pes Anserinus, and what innervates them?
Sartorius - Femoral Nerve Gracilis - Obturator Nerve semiTendonosis - Tibial Branch of the Sciatic Nerve *SGT FOT*
59
What two Bursae can be found deep to the Pes Anserinus on the medial side of the knee?
Bursa of Semimembranosus Anserine Bursa
60
What two compartments of the Thigh don't have a septum between them?
The Posterior and Medal Compartments
61
Where can the Iliopectineal Bursa be found, and why is it clinically relevant?
It can be found deep to the Iliopsoas M, and also deep to the Pectineus on its medial edge. Mostly on the capsule of the hip joint. Can become inflamed leading to groin pain.
62
Where is the Patellar Ligament found? Where is the Patellar Tendon found?
Patellar Tendon is Superior to the Patella, connecting it to the Quadriceps Muscles Patellar Ligament is Inferior to the Patella, connecting it to the Tibial Tuberosity
63
Which compartment is stronger, the Anterior Thigh, or the Posterior Thigh?
Anterior Thigh
