Structures of the lateral malleolus - Superficial
sural nerve
Short saphenous vein
Structures of the lateral malleolus - Deep
Peroneus longus tendon
Peroneus brevis tendon
Where does the long head of the biceps tendon originate?
Supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula
What is the origin of the coracobrachialis and the short head of biceps brachii?
Coracoid process of the scapula
Site at which the long head of triceps brachii originates.
infraglenoid tubercle
L3 nerve root compression
Sensory loss over anterior thigh.
Weak quadriceps
Reduced knee reflex
Positive femoral stretch test
L4 nerve root compression
Sensory loss anterior aspect of knee
Weak quadriceps
Reduced knee reflex
Positive femoral stretch test
L5 nerve root compression
Sensory loss dorsum of foot
Weakness in foot and big toe dorsiflexion
Reflexes intact
S1 nerve root compression
Sensory loss posterolateral aspect of leg and lateral aspect of foot
Weakness in plantar flexion of foot
Reduced ankle reflex
Musculocutanous nerve (C5-7)
Motor: Elbow flexion + Supination (supplies (biceps brachii, Brachialis + Coracobrachialis)
Sensory: Lateral part of the forearm
Axillary nerve (C5 - 6)
Motor: Shoulder abduction (deltoid muscle).
Sensory: Inferior region of the deltoid muscle.
If damaged via surgical neck fracture = unable to Abduct.
Radial Nerve (C5-8)
Motor: Extension (forearm, wrist, fingers, thumb)
Sensory: Small area between the dorsal aspect of the 1st and 2nd metacarpals
Can result in a wRist drop via axilla / mid-shaft fracture.
Median Nerve (C6 - 8, T1)
LOAF* muscles.
Can be compromised = CTS / supracondylar fracture
Can cause…
Monkey hand
Paralysis of Thenar muscles, opponens pollicis
From elbow = loss of pronation of forearm + weak wrist flexion.
Ulnar Nerve (C8-T1)
Motor: Intrinsic hand muscles except LOAF* Wrist flexion.
Sensory: Medial 1+1/2 fingers
Outstretched fall + medial epicondyle fracture = Ulnar claw.
