Lecture 19 the shank, test 3 Flashcards
three medical concerns with the tibial tuberosity
osgood schlatters, avulsion fracture, chronic dislocation of (petellar lig)
what kind of joing is the proximal tib-fib joit
synovial plane joint with some gliding movement
what movement occurs at the tib fib joint with knee flexion
bicepc and lcl tendon are slack and fibular shifts forward, opposite in extension
what tendon provides support to the proximal tib-fib joint
po;liteal muscle, tendon
also semimembranosus fascia
what are the palpable borders of the tibia?
ant, medial, medial surface
where is the nutrient foramen on the tibia?
posterior, inf to soleal line
what is the articulation with the fibula on the tibia called, distally?
fibular notch
which distal tib-fib lig is essential for weight bearing? where is it?
transverse tibio fibular ligament, (posterior
What usually happens with pathology of the posterior tib fib lig, why?
very strong, get avulution of maleouls (trimallelar fracture)
what nerve and artery run in the anterior compartment?
deep peroneal n, ant tibial aa
what artery run in the lateral compartment
peroneal aa and nerve
what nerve and a runs in the posterior compartment?
tibial n, posterior tibial a–
what divides the deep and superficial muscles of the posterior compartment?
deep muscles do not attache to the achiles
what muscles would be effected by anterior compartment syndrom?
ta, extensor hl, edl (ie dorsiflexion)= drop foot during swing
what are the 5 p’s indicating fasciatiomy for anterior compartment syndrom?
pain, palor, pulselessness, parasthesia, paralysis
