Lab LIst Tuesday 6/17/14 Flashcards
Pectineus insertion
pectineal line of femur
Pectineus Origin
Superior ramus of pubis
Pectineus main actions (3)
- adducts hip joint
- flexes hip joint
- assists with medial rotation of hip joint
Segmental innervation of pectineus, gracilis, sartorius, and iliacus
L2, L3
Segmental innervation psoas major
L1, L2, L3
segmental innervation adductor longus, adductor brevis, adductor part of adductor magnus, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius
L2, L3, L4
Psoas major innervation
anterior rami of lumbar nerves
Innervation of pectineus, sartorius, iliacus, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius
Femoral Nerve
Sartorius origin
anterior superior iliac spine
Sartorius insertion
superior part of medial surface of tibia
sartorius main actions (4)
- flexes hip joint
- abducts hip joint
- laterally rotates hip joint (FALF)
- flexes knee joint
Psoas Major origins (2)
- sides of T12-L5 vertebrae and discs between them
- Transverse processes of all lumbar vertebra
Psoas major insertion
lesser trochanter of femur
Psoas major and iliacus main actions (3)
- together, flex hip joint
- together, stabilize hip joint
- Psoas major is also postural muscle that helps control deviation of
the trunk and is active during standing
Iliacus origins (4)
- iliac crest
- iliac fossa
- ala of sacrum
- anterior sacro-iliac ligaments
Iliacus insertions (2)
- lesser trochanter of the femur
- tendon of psoas major
Rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius all have the main action of
Extending the knee joint
Insertion for rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius (2)
- Base of patella (via quadriceps tendon)
- tibial tuberosity via patellar ligament
Vastus lateralis origins (2)
- greater trochanter
- lateral lip of linea aspera
rectus femoris origins (2)
- anterior inferior iliac spine
- ilium superior to acetabulum
Vastus medialis origins (2)
- intertrochanteric line
- medial lip of linea aspera
Vastus intermedius origin
anterior and lateral surfaces of shaft of femur
Adductor Longus origin
body of pubis inferior to pubic crest
Adductor longus insertion
middle third of linea aspera of femur
Segmental innervation of adductor longus, adductor brevis, and adductor part of adductor magnus
L2, L3, L4
Innervation of hamstring part of adductor magnus
tibial part of sciatic nerve (L4)
Innervation of adductor longus, adductor brevis, adductor magnus, gracilis, and obturator externus
obturator nerve
adductor longus main action
adduct hip joint
Gracilis and adductor brevis both originate at
body and inferior ramus of the pubis
