tibialis anterior tibialis posterior flexor hallucis longus intrinsics
40
passive support of the foot includes [4]
plantar aponeurosis short plantar ligament long plantar ligament planter calcaneonavicular
41

45
injured in a high ankle sprain
anterior inferior tibulofibular ligament (AITFL)
46
injured in low ankle sprain
anterior talofibular ligament
47
most common ankle sprain overall, due to overinversion/supination of the foot
Anterior TaloFibular ligament **Always Tears First
48
most common high ankle sprain
anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament
49
2 separate joints that align to form the transverse tarsal joint
talonavicular calcaneocuboid
50
transection across the [...] is standard method for surgical amputation of the foot
transverse tarsal joint
51
where talus rests on calcaneous
subtalar joint
52
main movement of the subtalar joint are
inversion/eversion
53
which anatomical structures maintain the integrity of the hip joint ?
bony parts of the acetabulum and ligaments that go around the head of the neck (ischiofemoral, iliofemoral and pubofemoral ligaments)
54
How are the head and the neck of the femur vascularized?
medial and lateral circumflex femoral a.
55
How would a posterior hip dislocation present?
internally rotated and adducted
56
How would a hip fx of the femoral neck present?
externally rotated and abducted
57
adduction with a posterior hip dislocation is due to
impingement against acetabular rim
58
abduction and lateral rotation with a femoral neck fx is due to
the lateral rotators of the hip pulling on the femur

neck
65
external hip rotation, abduction and shortening of limb indicates
femoral neck fx
66
an internally rotated and adducted limb at the hip joint indicates
posterior dislocation
67
which anatomical structures maintain the integrity of the tibio-talar joint?
**anterior talofibular ligament** deltoid ligament
68
which test is used to assess the integrity of anterior talofibular ligament?
anterior drawer

73
the medial meniscus is adherent to
MCL
74
chief flexor of the hip during gait
illiopsoas
75
prevents overextension of the hip joint
iliofemoral ligament **extremely important to up right stance
76
gluteus maximus is a [flexor/extensor]
extensor
77
[men/women] have a higher incidence of femoral neck fracture
women **due to weakening via osteoporosis

plantar
80
provides sensation to the dorsum of the foot
superficial fibular n.
81
provides sensation to the web space between 1st and 2nd toe
deep fibular n.
82
provides sensation to lateral calf and ankle
sural
83
what structures travel through the adductor canal? [3]
femoral artery femoral vein saphenous nerve
84
the [...] nerve passes through the obturator foramen
obturator
85
the [...] artery lies superficial to all the muscles in the thigh
femoral
86
