MSK 2 Flashcards
When do you get a claw hand
Damage to ulnar nerve at the WRIST
When would you damage the ulnar nerve but see NO DEFORMITY
Ulnar nerve injury at the elbow
Describe the ulnar paradox
Ulnar nerve injury at the ELBOW = no supply to lateral lumbricals in hand + no supply to lateral FDP = unopposed extension at MCP & DIPJ = straight ring & little fingers (no obvious deformity) BUT no ADD/ABDuction of fingers (no supply to dorsal + palmar interossei)
paradox = no deformity but also no function

proximal = radial styloid
floor = scaphoid + trapezium (SCAT)
roof = skin
Contents of the anatomical snuffbox
Artery = radial
vein = cephalic
nerve = superficial branch of radial
Which nerve passess between the 2 head of the pronator teres

(That They Cant Handle)
Which carpal bone is at the base of the thumb

Describe a boxers fracture
Fracture of neck of the 4/5th metacarpal neck
MOI of boxers #
punching a hard surface with a closed fist
What is the name for a simple oblique intra-articular fracture of the base of the 1st metacarpal
Bennet’s #
Describe a Rolando’s #
Comminuted intra-articular # of the base of the 1st metacarpal bone
MOI of Bennet’s #
forced abduction of thumb
MOI of Rolando’s #
Axial load onto flexed thumb
What type of joints have a capsule
Synovial joints
what arteries supply the femoral head
Medial + lateral circumflex femoral
A small artery to the head of the femur
Which artery supplies the Medial + lateral circumflex femoral arteries
Profunda femoris artery
Nerve supply of the hip joint
Femoral + sciatic nerves
What extracapsular ligaments support the hip joint
Anterior= iliofemoral + pubofemoral
Posterior= ischiofemoral ligament
What intracapsular ligaments support the hip joint
Ligament of the head of the femur
What structures help stabilize the hip joint
-Ligaments
-Labrum
-deep acetabulum
What is DDH
Shallow acetabulum = easy dislocation of hip joint = leg length discrepancy + poor ABDuction of hip
What does Barlow test look for
Barlow’s = if hip is easily dislocatable
Test- hip and knee flexed at 90 deg- exert posterior force- medially rotate at hip
+ve if hip joint dislocates
What does Ortalani’s test look for
If the hip is dislocated this will reduce the joint
Test- hip and knee flexed to 90 deg- exert anterior force- laterally rotate at hip joint
+ve if joint clunks back into right position

What is the fascia lata
Deep fascia covering the thigh
Fascia lata vs Tensor fascia lata
Fascia lata = deep fascia
TSL= muscle in lateral aspect of thigh
What is the insertion/ origin of the ITT
Iliotibial band is thickening of the fascia lata
origin= iliac tubercle on the crest
insertion= lateral TIBIAL condyle
What are the external gluteal muscles
Gluteus max, medius, minimus, tensor fascia lata
