Anatomy lower limb Book Flashcards
Where to test sensation of deep peroneal nerve
First web space of foot
Where to test sensation of superficial peroneal nerve
AnteroLateral aspect of calf
Dorsal of foot
Nerve supply to sole of foot
Medial and lateral plantar
Nerve supply to sensation of lower leg
Anterolateral- superficial peroneal
Medial- saphenous
Posterolateral- sural
Borders of femoral ring
Medial- lacunar
Lateral- femoral vein
Posterior- pectineal
Anterior- inguinal ligament
Hunter Canal borders and content
Provides channel for femoral vessels to pass into politieal fossa and saphenous vein
Anteriorly- distal third of sartorius
Vastus medialis- lies laterally
Adductor longus (proximally) and Magnus(distally) lies posteromedially
Compartments of lower leg and innervation
Anterior - deep peroneal
Lateral - superficial peroneal
Deep posterior - tibial
Superficial posterior - tibial
What is in anterior compartment
Tibialis anterior
Extensor hallucis longus
Extensor digitorum longus
Fibularis tertius
Anterior tibial vessels
Deep peroneal nerve
What is in lateral compartment
Fibularis longus muscle (FLM)
Fibularis brevis muscle (FBM)
Superficial peroneal nerve
Perforations of peroneal artery
What is in deep posterior compartment
Flexor hallucis longus
Flexor digitorum longus
Tibialis posterior
Popliteus
Posterior tibial and peroneal arteries and tibial nerve
Which muscles attach to greater trochanter
Piriformis
Obturator interns
Obturator Externus
Gluteus minimus and medius
Gemelli
Most common site of atherosclerosis in lower limb
In the adductor canal
Compartments of femoral sheath
Lateral- contain femoral artery
Intermediate- femoral vein
Medial- canal empty space containing lymphatics
What is the femoral sheath a continuation of
Transversals fascia
Blood supply of neck of femur
Medial and lateral circumflex supply extravascular ring
Medial most important
Retinacular pass from these up to the head
Artery of ligamarntum teres- from obturator - contributes more in childhood
