28
rounded structure on a bone

29
thigh bone
femur
30
anatomical guide of the femoral
through center of femoral triangle, bounded laterally by the sartorius muscle, & medially by the adductor longus muscle.
31
three sided area of the thigh
femoral triangle
32
The inguinal ligament is the ________________ boundary of the femoral triangle.
superior
33
the point at which the Sartorius muscle & adductor longus meet is the
Apex of the femoral triangle
34
Note...
fascia tissue-hunter's canal-still contains femoral artery and vein
35
anatomical limits of the femoral
begins at point posterior to center of the inguinal ligament | terminates at opening of the adductur mangus muscle
36
point above the back of the knee
opening of the adductor magnus muscle
37
The most LATERAL blood vessel of the femoral triangle is the
femoral artery
38
most medial structure in the femoral triangle in relationship to the inguinal ligament is the....
termination of the great saphenous vein
39
place of incision of the femoral
along any portion of the superior 2/3 of linear guide.
40
where do we advocate raising the femoral and why
Just inferior the inguinal liagament | Because the artery & vein lie parallel to each other & visually you'd be less likely to puncture wall of vein
41
considerations of raising femoral artery
LARGE in size Lower portion of body can be embalmed w/o concern of distention of the face. Equal distribution of fluid to the head
42
Precautions of raising the femoral arteries
Vessels are deep seated in obese cases. | Drainage is sometimes difficult to establish & maintain
43
accompanying vein of the femoral artery
femoral vein
44
the femoral vein's location in relationship to the femoral artery
Medial and deep
45
Mid-thigh; at a point below the apex of the femoral triangle just below the inguinal ligament the femoral vein would go deeper in the tissues, so the location of the femoral vein in relationship to the femoral artery just below the inguinal ligament?
medial
46
What is the name of the artery just superior or inferior to the apex of the femoral triangle?
FEMORAL ARTERY
47
What is the name of the vein just superior or inferior to the apex of the femoral triangle?
FEMORAL VEIN
