what is the role of the superficial gluteal region?
extensors, abductors + medial rotators of thigh
what is the role of the deep gluteal region?
lateral rotators of thigh + hip stabilisers
how do nerves to gluteal region enter the pelvis?
what are they formed by?
the greater and lesser sciatic foramen
sacrotuberous and sacrospinus ligaments
which nevres enter the pelvis via the gluteal region?
- sciatic (L4-S3)
- pudendal (S2-S4)
- posterior cutaneous nerve of the thigh (S1-S3)
what are some facts about the sciatic nerve?
- exits inferior to piriformis
- most lateral structure exisitng GSF
- supplies nothign in the gluteal region
what are the borders of the femoral triangle?
S - inguinal ligament M - adductor longus L - sartorius F - iliopsoas and pecrinteus R - deep fascia (fascia lattae)
which nerve supplies the anterior compartment of thigh?
femoral nerve
what is the role of muscles in the medial thigh compartment?
hip adduction
which nerve supplies the medial com of the thigh?
obturator nerve
what are the role of the muscles in teh posterior com of thigh?
extensors of thigh + flexors of leg
which nerve supplies posterior com of thigh?
tibial division of sciatic nerve
what is the role of muscles in the anteiror com of leg?
dorsiflex ankles + extension of toes
which nerve supplied anteiror leg ?
deep fibular nerve
role of muscles in lateral leg
evert foot + weakly plantarflex
which nerve supplies lateral leg?
superficial fibular nerve
which nerve supplies posterior leg
tibial nerve
which ligaments are in the hip joint?
iliofemoral
pubofemoral
ischiofemoral
what is the blood supplt to head hip joint?
- medial and lateral circumflex arteris
- artery to head of femur
what are the ligaments of the ankle?
the deltoid ligaments
- anterior tibiotalar ligament
- posterior tibiotalar ligament
- tibiocalcaneal ligament
- tibionavicular ligament
what is a maisonneuvre fracture?
separating of the distal tibia and fibular can cause teaing of tibiofibular syndesmosis
- fracture of proximal fibular
what happens during pronation
radius moves over ulnar
what are the elbow ligaments?
lateral collateral (radial) ligament
annular ligament
medial (ulnar) collateral ligament
what innervates levator scapulae
dorsal scapular nerve
what innervates anteiror arm
musculocutanoeus nerve
what is the role of anterior arm
flexion of arm and forearm
what supplies posterior arm
radial nerve
what is the role of posteiror arm
extension of arm and forearm
what innervates anterior forearm
median nerve apart from flexor carpi ulnaris + medial half of flexor digitorum (ulnar nerve)
what innervates posterior forearm?
radial nerve
what are the muscles of the thenar eminance?
abductor pollicis brevis
flexor pollicis brevis
opponens pollicis
what innervates the thenar eminance?
recurrent branch of median nerve
what are the muscles of the hypothenar eminance?
obturator digiti minimi
flexor digiti minimi
opponens digiti minimi
what innervates the hypothenar eminance?
deep branch of ulnar nerve
what are the lumbricals attached to?
