MSK 3 Flashcards
State Hilton’s law
The nerves crossing a joint supply the muscles acting on that joint
Is the superior tibiofibular joint synovial/ fibrous
Synovial
Is the inferior tibiofibular joint synovial/ fibrous
Fibrous
What ligaments connect the tibia + fibula
-superior tibiofibular
-inferior tibiofibular
-interosseous membrane
What ligaments stabilise the ankle joint
medial(deltoid) + lateral collateral ligaments
Medial/ deltoid
(medial malleolus –> navicular tuberosity/ medial tuberosity of talus, sustentaculum tali of calcaneus)
lateral
(lateral malleolus–> anterior talofibular/ posterior talofibular/ calcaneofibular)
What are the muscles in the posterior compartment of the thigh
-biceps femoris (long/ short heads)
-semimembranosus
-semitendinosus
What is the common origin for the muscles in the posterior compartment of the thigh
Ischial tuberosity
what is the most lateral muscle in the posterior compartment (thigh)
Biceps femoris
Insertion of the biceps femoris
both heads= head of fibula
Which muscle in the posterior compartment of the thigh does not originate from the ischial tuberosity
Short head of biceps femoris
(linea aspera)
Which muscles in the thigh are innervated by the common peroneal nerve
-short head biceps femoris
Which muscles in the thigh are innervated by the tibial nerve
-hamstring part of adductor magnus
-long head of biceps femoris
-semitendinosus
-semimembranosus
What are the nerve roots of the sciatic nerve
L4-S3
Which muscles cause extension of hip + knee flexion
all hamstrings
which muscles cause extension + lateral rotation of hip
biceps femoris
which muscles cause extension + medial rotation of hip
-semi tendinosus/membranosus
how many compartments are in the leg
3 compartments:
-anterior
-posterior
-lateral
What nerve supplies the anterior compartment
Deep peroneal nerve
What artery supplies the anterior compartment
Anterior tibial artery
What muscles are in the anterior compartment of the leg
(Superficial-deep)
-Tibialis anterior
-Extensor digitorum longus
-Extensor hallucis longus
-Peroneous tertius
O/I of tibialis anterior
O: lateral tibial surface
I: medial cueniform + metatarsal 1
Action of tibialis anterior
Inversion and dorsiflexion of foot
