Q

What causes foot drop

A

Damage to common fibular nerve
Anterior leg is innervated by deep fibular nerve and it is responsible for dorsiflexion of foot hence damage to common fibular nerve -> unopposed plantar flexion of foot

A

Tibial nerve

42
Q

Name A-B

A

A- flexor digitorum longus
B- Flexor hallicus longus

43
Q

Why is the medial meniscus more prone to tearing

A

Because it is attached to the medial collateral ligament

44
Q

What is the unhappy triad

A

Injury of
- medial meniscus
- anterior cruciate ligament
- medial collateral ligamnet

45
Q

Function of anterior cruciate ligament

A

Resist internal rotation of tibia and anterior subluxation of tibia

46
Q

Mechanism of injury of anterior cruciate ligament

A

Twisting mechanism - turning the upper body laterally on a planted foot

47
Q

Function of posterior cruciate ligament

A

Prevent hyperextension of the leg and posterior subluxation of the tibia

48
Q

Mechanism of injury of posterior cruciate ligament

A

direct blow to anterior tibia - dashboard injury

Usually occurs with other injuries

49
Q

How does the anterior cruciate ligament attach

A

at the anterior intercondylar region of the tibia ascend posteriorly to attach to the lateral femoral condyle

50
Q

How does the posterior cruciate ligament attach

A

At the posterior intercondylar region of tibia ascend anteriorly to attach to medial femoral condyle

51
Q

Injury mechanism of meniscal tear

A

twisting force on a loaded knee
