unique componenet of scaroiliac jt =
its 2 types of jts
1. snynovial jt = antero-inferiorly
2. syndesmosis jt = posterior-superiorly
tibia is = (Weight/non-weight bearing )
TIBIA = WEIGHT bearing
fibula = non-weight/weight bearing
fibula = NON weight-bearing
pattella = ___ bone
sesamoid bone
tibia = medial malleous
fibula = lateral malleolus
t
which membrane connects fibula and tibia
interosseous mem.
which is the only bone that connects with leg bones
TALUS
which foot bone = transmits most of the body weight from talus to ground
calcaneus (heel bone)
which foot bone has the tuberosity of navicular and if too prominent -> press against medial part of shoe = pain
navicular
shelf projects from the medial calcaneus
talar shelf
leg drained by which 2 veins
superifical and deep veins
which has more valves and is less likely to have varicose veins
deep veins = more valves
superfical = less valves = more varicose veins
great and small saphenous veins are (deep/superficial veins)
superficial veins
dorsal digital vein of great toe + dorsal venous arch of the foot =
great saphenous vein -> empties into femoral vein
small saphenous veins arises on the lateral side of foot from which (#) dorsal digit vein of which (#) digit w/ venous arch
5th dorsal digit vein of 5th digit
great saphenous -> femoral
small saphenous -> popliteal
t/f deep veins travel with arteries and usually paired
t
account for over 90% of venous return from lower extremeties
venae comitantes
deep leg veins drain into which v
popliteal v
DVT = MOST COME FROM DEEP VEINS
ant. comp. muscles of thigh = flex () at hip & extend () at knee
post. comp. = extend thigh and flex ()
medial comp. = adduct or abduct thigh
ant. comp. muscles of thigh = flex femur at hip & extend leg at knee
post. comp. = extend thigh and flex leg
medial = adduct thigh
ALL ant. comp. of thigh = which n.
ACTION =
FERMORAL NERVE
A: hip flexion & knee extension
pectineus (add to medial rot.)
iliopsoas (CHIEF FLEXOR of the thigh, postural muscle, inserts on the lesser trochantor)
sartorius (goes across your thigh, CROSS-legged sitting position, weak, synergist muscle)
quadriceps femoris = (I: tibial tuberosity via patellar ligament, part of quadriceps femoris; extend at knee, all quad fem msucles have same I, N, A)
ant thigh m
medial comp. thigh muscles
N.
aka adductor group
obturator n.
which muscle of med. comp. is the only adductor to cross and act on knee
gracilis
adductor longus is the most ant. of the adductor group
adductor brevis is deep to (2) muscles
deep to pectineus and adductor longus
only muscle with additional n. for medial comp. thigh muscle
adductor magnus
obturator AND sciatic n.
can extend and adduct
