Lecture 18: Muscular System IV (Lower Limbs) Flashcards
- GLUTEUS MEDIUS
- GLUTEUS MAXIMUS
posterior superficial muscles
O/I/F/N of gluteus medius
origin: lateral surface ilium
insertion; lateral surface greater trochanter
fxn: prime mover for abduction hip
innervation: superiorgluteal nerve
prime mover for abduction hip
gluteus medius
reverse fxn of gluteus medius
brings ilium down to femur, occurs during walking. levels pelvis
what is trendelberg gait
paralysis gluteus medius
o/i/f/n gluteus maximus
origin: lateral surface ilium and posterior surface sacrum
insert: gluteal tuberosity of femur. most fibres indirectly attach to lateral condyle tibia (IT Band)
fxN: prime mover hip extension and stability to knnee joint via IT band
nerve: sacral plexus inferogluteal nerve
prime mover hip extension
gluteus maximus
Top to Btm
gluteus medius(sup)
gluteus minimus(deep)
Piriformis(deep)
gluteus maximus(sup)
sciatic nerve
largest nerve
sciatic
o/i/f/n Piriformis
origin: anterior surface sacrum in pelvis
exits pelvic cavity via greater sciatic foramen
insertion: medial surface greater trochanter femur
fxn: lateral rotation hip
nerve: sacral plexus (prifiorm”
medial compartment
sciatic nerve
femur
what are the compartments of the thigh? innervations?
Posterior: “flexor” compartment. Sciatic nerve
Middle: “adductor” compartment. Obtrurator nerve (lumbar)
Anterior: “extensor” of knee. Femoral Nerve (lumbar)
PFS
MAO
AEF
explain o/i/f/n of iliopsoas
psoas major origin=lumbar vertebrae
iliacus origin= medial surface ilium (iliac fossa)
insert: lesser trochanter femur
fxn: prime mover flexion hip
psoas major=ant. rami of L1-L3
iliacus=femoral nerve
what mover extension knee
quadriceps femoris
explain o/i/f/n quadriceps femoris
origin: hip bone and shaft of femur
insertion: tibial tuberosity via quad and petallar tendons
fxn: prime mover extension knee
innervation: femoral
adductor brevis
adductor magnus
