Lecture 2 Flashcards
What the normal femoral angle of inclination
126 degrees
What is the myotome of abduction
L5
What’s the myotome of hip adduction
L3
What’s the myotome of ankle inversion?
L4
What’s the myotome of ankle eversion
S1
What’s the myotome of hip extension
S2
What’s the myotome of hip flexion
L2
Whats the myotome of knee flexion
S2
Think “S2 curls u into a ball with a combo of hip ext, knee flex, and toe flex
What’s the myotome of Knee Extension
L3
What’s the myotome of Dorsiflexion
L4
The letter 4 looks like a dorsal fin, idk just something to remember it by
myotome of Ankle Plantarflexion
S1
Toe extension myotome
L5
Toe Flexion Myotome
S2
Think “closest to the ground muscles get S2”
What is the muscle action of Rectus Femoris?
Extends Knee Joint
Steadies hip joint, helps Illiopsoas flex hip joint
What is the proximal attachment of the Rectus Femoris
Anterior Inferior Illiac Spine
Ilium superior to acetabulum
What’s the distal attachment of Rectus Femoris
Quadriceps tendon to base of patella, also has independent attachment to the patella
Indirectly via patellar ligament to tibial tuberosity
What’s the innervation of Rectus Femoris
Femoral Nerve L2 (L3 L4)
Myotome of hip IR
L5
Myotome of hip ER
S1
What is the proximal attachment of the Vastus Lateralis
The greater Trochanter
Lateral Lip of linea Aspera
What is the proxmial attachment of the vastus medialis
The intertrochanteric line
medial lip of linea aspera
REMEMBER it’s a quad muscle and the intertrochanteric LINE is on the front of the femur. The fossa and crest is on the back.
What is the proximal attachment of Vastus intermedius
Anterior and lateral surface of shaft of femur
What is the innervation of the Quad group?
Femoral Nerve L2 (L3 L4)
What is the distal attachment of the vastus intermedius
Quadriceps tendon to tibial tuberosity via patellar ligament
VL and VM:
Also attach to tibia and patella
via aponeuroses (medial and lateral patellar retinacular
