A

L4-S3, medial division of sciatic nerve

40
Q

A

Obt/femoral nerve

41
Q

Adductor magnus innervation

A

Obt/tibial nerve

42
Q

Biceps femoris innervation

A

Long head = tibial nerve, short head = peroneal nerve

43
Q

MFCA landmark

A

Comes off deep femoral artery, then adjacent to Quadratus femoris and piriformis fossa (ascending branch)

44
Q

Sacrotuberous ligament

A

Oriented vertically and resists shear forces

45
Q

Sacrospinous ligament

A

Resists external rotation

46
Q

Greater sciatic notch content

A

Piriformis, originates off ventral surface of scacrum, then travels through the notch, sciatic nerve likely deep to it, SGA, SGN, IGA, IGN, pudendal nerve etc

47
Q

Lesser sciatic notch content

A

Obturator internus, sciatic nerve likely superficial to it, nerve to obturator internis, pudendal nerve and internal pudendal vessels, these exit greater notch and re-enter lesser notch

48
Q

Corona mortis

A

Anastamosis from external iliac artery to obturator 6cm lateral to pubic symphysis

49
Q

Safe zone for SGN

A

5cm proximal to greater trochanter

50
Q

Hamstring attachment

A

Semimembranosus more proximal and lateral on tuberosity, conjoint tendon consists of semitendinosus and biceps femoris is more distal and medial

51
Q

Ilioinguinal approach

A

Anterior column, anterior wall fractures. 3 windows relative to IP and vessesl. Lateral window lateral to iliopsoas. Middle window is between IP and EIA. Medial window medial to EIA. Stoppa modification is a more extensive medial window.

52
Q

Medial approach to hip interval

A

66
Q

PCL isometric?

A

No, larger resistence to ER as knee flexes more, hence dial test positive for PCL with greater flexion to 90 degrees

67
Q

Patella stabilizers

0-30 degrees = MPFL, trochlea takes over at 30 degrees of flexion

68
Q

Medial layers of the knee

A

69
Q

Basset’s ligament

70
Q

ATFL and CFL are tight in:

A

ATFL in plantarflexion, CFL in dorsiflexion

71

Spring ligament

A

Plantar calcaneonavicular ligament, stabilizes longitudinal artch of foot and acts as hammock for talar head

73
Q

Primary blood supply to talar body

A

Artery of tarsal canal, retrograde flow

74
Q

PTT locks foot by what mechanism

A

When foot is everted, the TN and CC joints are parallel and foot is supple. When PTT fires, TN and CC are not longer parallel and the foot is rigid
