Q

thigh
popliteal artery

A

continuation of femoral artery, ina the popliteal fossa, posterior to knee

17
Q

thigh
obturator artery

A

from internal iliac, supplies adductors of the thigh and hamstrings

18
Q

leg
popliteal branches into

A

tibial and fibular artery

19
Q

leg
tibial artery dives into the

A

anterior and posterior

20
Q

leg
anterior tibial:

A

anterior leg, continues to dorsalis pedis artery, muscles on dorsum

21
Q

leg
posterior tibial:

A

posterior leg, continues to lateral and medial plantar arteries

22
Q

deep veins of lower limbs

A

the same as arteries

23
Q

superficial veins of lower limb

A

-great saphenous vein: pre-axial comp. medial side of ankle.ascends anterior to medial malleolus and drains into the femoral artery.
-small saphenous vein: post axial comp, posterior midline. ascends posterior to lateral malleolus and drains into popliteal artery

24
Q

superficial vein
great saphenous vein

A

ascends anterior to medial malleolus and drains into the femoral vein

25
Q

superficial vein
small saphenous vein

A

ascends posterior to the lateral malleolus and empties into the popliteal vain

26
Q

sciatica

A

lower back pain caused by a herniated dick in the lower back that pinches nerve roots, prior to sciatic nerve proper being formed

27
Q

hip joint

A

ball and socket multi axial

28
Q

strong ligaments in the hip joint

A

iliofemoral
pubofemoral
ischiofermoral

29
Q

medial circumflex artery

A

supplies most of the blood to the head and neck of the femur

30
Q

knee joint

A

bicondylar hinge joint
flexion, extension, medial, and lateral rotation
composed: femur, tibia, and patella

31
Q

what stabilizes the knee joint

A

patellar ligament: flex and extend
fibular and collateral ligaments: FCL LCC
cruciate ligament: anterior and posterior ACL PCL

32
Q

menisci of knee joint

A

medial and lateral crescent plates of fibrocartilage

33
Q

anterior cruciate ligament:

A

ACL
prevents posterior displacement of the femur on the tibia and hyperextension of the knee joint

34
Q

posterior cruciate ligament

A

PCL
prevents anterior displacement of the femur on the tibia or posterior displacement of the tibia on the femur, prevents hyperflexion of knee joint

35
Q

pulse point of femoral artery

A

press inferiorly to inguinal ligament and at the midpoint between the pubic symphysis and anterior superior iliac spine

36
Q

pulse point of posterior tibial artery

A

palpate between the posterior surface of medial malleous and medial border of the calcaneal tendon

37
Q

pulse point of pedis artery

A

dorsal surface of the foot lateral to the tibialis anterior tendon
