19
Q

Boundries of the femoral triangle

A

Superior: Inguinal Ligament

Inferior/lateral: Sartorius Medial: Adductor Longus

Floor: Iliopsoas and pectinus

Roof: Fascia lata and cribiform fascia

Apex: where sartorius meets adductor longs

20
Q

Contents of Femoral Triangle

A

NAVL

Femoral N

Femoral A

Femoral V

Deep Lymphatics and the femoral canal

21
Q

Femoral Ring

A

Opening of the abdomen into the femoral canal. Hernia’s can push through here

22
Q

Boundaries of the femoral ring

A

Medial : Lacunar ligament

Lateral: Femoral Vein

Floor: Superior pubic ramus (pectenius)

Roof: Inguinal Ligament

23
Q

Femoral Canal

A

A space for deep lymph nodes and room for the femoral vein to extend

24
Q

Adductor Canal Contents

A

femoral artery, and vein (exit via the adductor hiatus)

saphenous nerve,

the nerve to vastus medialis

the descending genicular a. (fr. femoral)

which do not exit through the adductor hiatus

25
Q

Adductor Canal Boundries

A

Anertiolateral: Vastus Medialis

Anteriomedial: Sartorius and vasoadductor membrane

Floor: Aduuctor longus and magnus

26
Q

Femoral Nerve cord segments

A

L2, L3, L4 Vental Rami

27
Q

Femoral Nerve Function

A

Flexion at the Hip Extension of the Knee

28
Q

Femoral Nerve Course

A

Originates in the abdomen and descends into the pelvis in between lilacs and the lateral border of posts major. It then passes behind the inguinal ligament and then goes into the thigh in the lateral portion of the femoral triangle

29
Q

Femoral Nerve Innervations

A

All Anterior Compartment Muscles

Illiacus

Sartorius

Rectus Femoris

Vastus Muscles

Articularis Genu

Pectinus

Sensory Innervation to the knee

30
Q

Femoral Nerve Cutaneous Branches

A

Anterior (medial and intermediate) cutaneous nerves of the thigh

31
Q

Saphenous Nerve

A

Cutaneous Branch of Femoral Nerve

L4

Sensation to medial leg and medial foot

32
Q

Saphenous Nerve Course

A

Enters the adductor canal, pierces the vastoadductor membrane Runs medial to the knee and along the medial leg to the foot.

33
Q

Femoral Artery Course

A

a. Passes posterior to the inguinal ligament at its midpoint
b. Through femoral triangle between femoral v and femoral n.
c. Continues through adductor canal and into popliteal fossa then becomes popliteal a.
d. Within the adductor hiatus, the femoral artery moves from being lateral to the femoral vein to being anterior.

34
Q

Illiotibial Tract

A
  1. Lateral thickening of fascial late
  2. Shared aopneurosis for tensor fascia lata and gluteus maximus
  3. Extends from iliac tubercle and crest to Gerdy’s tubercle
  4. Stabilizes the extended knee
35
Q

Fascia Lata

A
  1. Deep fascia of thigh
  2. Invests thigh tightly, like a sleeve
  3. Plays an important role in the musculovenous pump
36
Q

Thigh Compartments

A

Deep invaginations of the fascia lata separate the thigh into 3 compartments

a. Medial
b. Anterior
c. Posterior

37
Q

Saphenous opening

A
  1. Hiatus in fascia lata inferior to medial inguinal ligament
  2. 4 cm inferolateral to pubic tubercle
  3. Falciform magin – curved lateral margin
38
Q

Cribriform fascia

A

Fatty, loose connective tissue which covers the saphenous opening allows for passage of lymphatics and the great saphenous vein.

39
Q

Great saphenous vein

A

Superficial Drainage of the lower limb

a. Formed from dorsal venous arch of foot
b. Ascends anterior to medial malleolus, posterior to medial epicondyle of femur, pierces through cribriform fascia to enter femoral vein.

40
Q

Lesser (small) saphenous vein

A

Superficial Drainage of the lower limb

a. Formed from dorsal venous arch of foot
b. Ascends posterior to lateral malleolus, courses along midline of posterior leg, enters popliteal vein.

41
Q

Deep Venous Drainage of the Lower Limb

A

Parallel arteries (venae comitantes) Usually paired

42
Q

Superficial Lymphatic Drainage of the Lower Limb

A
  1. Accompany saphenous veins
  2. Great saphenous lymph drain mostly to superficial inguinal lymph nodes.
  3. Small saphenous lymph drain mostly to popliteal lymph nodes.
43
Q

Deep Lymphatic Drainage of the Lower Limb

A
  1. Accompany deep veins
  2. Drain mostly to popliteal and deep inguinal lymph nodes.
44
Q

Cutaneous Innervation of Lower Limb

A

Supplied by the L1-S2 dermatomes. Spiraling, “barber pole” fashion of dermatomes is due to limb rotation during development.
