20
Q

What is the fascia

A

Any collection of connective-tissue large enough to be visible to the naked eye

Two types: superficial, deep

21
Q

Superficial fascia of the thigh

A

Sits just below the skin like a sleeve around the thigh

Allows the passage of nerves and lymphatics to the skin

22
Q

Deep fascia of the thigh

A

Also known as the fascia lata and it ensheaths the muscles

Encloses glutes and tensor fascia lata

Deepest part has elongations called intermuscular septa that anchors the fascia to the femur And divide the thigh muscles into fascial compartments

Thickening of the deep fascia on the lateral aspect of the thigh forms the iliotibial tract which extends from the iliac crest on the pelvis to the lateral aspect of the lateral tibial condyle

23
Q

Why is the iliotibial tract important

A

important structure: provides a large surface area for other muscles to attach

24
Q

Origin

A

Proximal attachment

Fixed bone

25
Q

Insertion

A

Distal attachment

Moveable bone

26
Q

Iliotibial tract

Position and Attachments

A

Iliotibial tract is a vertical band of thickened fascia

Position: found in the lateral part of the fascia lata

Attachments:

Proximal:
superiorly to the outer lip of the iliac crest behind the iliac tubercle

Distal:
Inferiorly to a tubercle on the anterior aspect of the lateral tibial condyle(gerdy’s tubercle)

Thickest below the level of the greater trochanter

27
Q

Piriformus

A

Shape: triangular

Origin: 2nd 3rd 4th sacral segments lateral to anterior sacral foramina

Insertion: superior body of greater trochanter

Direction: laterally anteriorly

Action: lateral rotation abduction

Nerve supply: lumbosacral plexus L5 S1,2

28
Q

Quadratus femoris

A

Shape: flat quadraleteral muscle

Origin: ischial tuberosity

Insertion: superior to mid portion of intertrichanteric crest on posterior of femur

Action: laterally rotates

Function: stabilizes hip

Nerve supply: quadratus femoris L4,5 S1

29
Q

Obturator internus

A

Shape: triangular shape posterior to hip

Origin: inner surface of obturator foramen pubis and ischium

Insertion: medial surface of greater trochanter if femur

Direction: laterally posteriorly

Nerve supply: obturator nerve L3,4

31
Q

Gemellus superior

A

Shape:triangular

Origin: Ischial spine

Insertion: medial surface of greater trochanter if femur

Direction: laterally inferiorly

Function:stabilise hip

Nerve supply: obturator internus L5 S1,2

32
