12
Q

which menisci is more mobile and why

A

Lateral is more mobile as the attachments are closer together so more of a pivot point

Q

where does the lateral collateral ligament attach

A

head of fibula

19
Q

aside from bone what does the medial collateral ligament attach to

A

medial meniscus

20
Q

which 3 bones make up the ankle joint

A

tibia, fibula and (trochlea of) talus

21
Q

what are 5 bony landmarks of medial foot

A 
big toe/MT1
tibia - medial malleolus 
head of talus
sustentaculum tali of calcaneus
navicular
22
Q

what are 2 bony landmarks of lateral foot

A

fibula - lateral malleolus

cuboid

23
Q

is the fibular relatively more ant or post at the ankle joint

24
Q

what is the sinus tarsi and where is it located

A

in the subtalar joint between the talus and calcaneus

osseous tunnel

25
Q

what 3 tendons pass behind the medial malleolus

A

tibialis posterior
Flexor digitorum longus
flexor hallicus longus

26
Q

what 2 tendons pass behind the lateral malleolus

A

peroneal/fibularis longus and brevis

27
Q

what other structure pass behind the medial malleolus into the tarsal tunnel along with tendons

A

posterior tibial artery and vein and tibial nerve

28
Q

the tarsal tunnel is on the med/lat aspect

A

medial aspect

29
Q

where does the calcaneal/achilles tendon insert

A

calcaneal tuberosity

30
Q

what lies deep to the achilles tendon

A

kaegers fat pad

31
Q

what are 4 ligaments of the ankle that is of interest

A

tibiocalcaneal
posterior talofibular
fibulocalcaneal
anterior tibiotalar

32
Q

the shoulder joint is made primarily of the union of the humerus and scapula what other bone is involved in the shoulder complex

33
Q

what part of the scapula does the clavicle articulate with

A

acromion process

34
Q

in what plane would you expect to pass through the scapula the quickest

35
Q

approaching from posterior in the coronal plane what part of the scapula do you expect to encounter first

A

scapular spine

36
Q

approaching from posterior in the coronal plane what part of the scapula do you expect to encounter last

A

coracoid process

37
Q

approaching from lateral in the sagittal plane what part of the scapula do you expect to encounter first

38
Q

what 2 muscles sit either side of the scapular spine on the posterior aspect of the scapula

A

supraspinatus

infraspinatus

39
Q

the humerus head is larger/smaller than the glenoid fossa and what does this allow - what is a con of this

A

larger

allows greater range of motion but decreases stability

40
Q

what group of muscles insert on the tubercles of the humerus

A

rotator cuff

41
Q

which rotator cuff muscle passes inferior to the acromion before inserting on the humeral head

A

supraspinatus

42
Q

what tendon runs between the 2 humeral tubercles

A

long head of biceps

43
Q

what is special about the tendon of the long head of biceps compared to other muscles at the shoulder joint

A

it is intracapsular but extraarticular - ie it runs within the joint capsule
