Q

Importance of compartents

A

Compartments have a limited volume (cover muscles- have artery and nerve) if there is fluid collection eg. blood then the pressure in compartment will increase and compress the nerve.

69
Q

Know all label in picture

A

  4. Posterior tibial a
70
Q
A

High Tibial Osteotomy

71
Q

High Tibial Osteotomy

A

As the anterior tibial artery passes medial to thefibular neck, it becomesvulnerable to damage during a tibialosteotomy.High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) is a surgical procedure that is performed to correct angular deformities of the knee

72
Q

Superficial fibular nerve innervates muscles where

A

Lateral compartment (fibularis longus and brevis) main function

73
Q
A

fibularis longus and brevis main function:eversion if the superficial fibular nerve is damaged inversion muscles dominate and foot will be in the Varus position.

74
Q

Where does the superficial fibular muscle become superficial

A

Between fibularis longus and brevis– becomes cutaneous(sensory and motor fibers)

75
Q
A

Box: Perneous longus
Green: Lateral cutaneous branch of superficial fibular nerve
Red: Medial cutaneous branch of superficial fibular nerve

76
Q

Deep fibular nerve location

A

Next to anterior tibular artery

77
Q
A

Anterior tibular artery

78
Q

What happens if deep fibular nerve is damaged?

A

Anterior comp. muscles cant function (main func extension)– opp will occur which is drop foot. Tibialis anterior won’t function (inversion) eversion will occur. Talipeseqino-valgus (x)

79
Q
A

Talipeseqino-valgus (x)

80
Q
A

Superficial fibular nerve block. Giving anesthetic- distal part of nerve will be functionless
