Lower Extremity Muscles Origins + Insertions Flashcards
Pectineus
Pecten pubis –> Pectineal line of femur
Adductor Brevis
Anterior surface of inferior pubic ramus –> Pectineal line and superior part of medial lip of linea aspera
Adductor Longus
Anterior surface of body of pubis –> Middle third of linea aspera
Adductor Magnus
Inferior pubic ramus, ischial ramus, and inferolateral area of ischial tuberosity–>Gluteal tuberosity of femur, medial lip of linea aspera, medial supracondylar ridge, adductor tubercle
Gracilis
Inferior margin of pubic symphysis, inferior ramus, inferior ramus of pubis, adjacent ramus of ischium –> Medial surface of tibial shaft
Sartorius
ASIS –> Superior aspect of the medial surface of the tibial shaft near the tibial tuberosity
Tensor Fascia Lata
ASIS, Outer lip of anterior iliac crest, fasica lata –> Iliotibial band
Rectus Femoris
Straight head: AIIS, Reflected head: groove aboev acetablum –> Base of patella and forms central portion of quadriceps femoris tendon
Vastus Intermedius
Superior 2/3 of anterior and lateral surfaces of femur, lateral intermuscular septum of thigh –> Lateral border of patella and forms deep portion of quadriceps tendon
Vastus Medialis
Infeiror intertrochanteric line, spiral line, medial lip of linea aspera, superior supracondylar ridge or femur, medial intermuscular septum –> Latearl base and border of patella and forms lateral patellar retinaculum and lateral side of quadriceps femoris tendon
Vastus Lateralis
Superior intertrochanteric line, anterior and inferior greater trochanter, superior portion of lateral lip of linea aspera, lateral gluteal tuberosity of femur –> Lateral base and border of patella and forms lateral patellar retinaculum and lateral portion of quadriceps femoris tendon
Hamstrings: Biceps Femoris Long Head
Posterior portion of ichial tuberosity (shares tendon with semitendonosus) –> Primarily fibular head, LCL and lateral tibial condyle
Hamstrings: Biceps Femoris Short Head
Lateral lip of linea aspera, lateral supradonylar ridge of femur, lateral intermuscular septum of thigh–> Primary fibular head, LCL and lateral tibial condyle
Hamstrings: Semimembranosus
Superior lateral ischial tuberosity –> Posterior medial tibial condyle
Hamstrings: Semitendonosus
Superior medial posterior ischial tiberosity (shares tendon with biceps femoris) –> Superior medial tibial shaft
Tibialis Anterior
Lateral condyle of tibia, proximal 1/2-2/3 of lateral surface of tibial shaft, interosseous membrane, deep surface of fasica cruris –> Medial and plantar surfaces of 1st cuneiform and on base of 1st metatarsal
