Musculoskeletal Flashcards
Sebaceous gland
Holocrine secretion of sebum. Hair follicle
Eccrine gland
Sweat, Everywhere
Apocrine gland
Milky viscious fluid found in axillae, genitalia and areolae. No function until puberty, malodorous due to bacteria,
Pudendal nerve block
ischial spine(relieve pain of delivery)
Lumbar puncture
iliac crest
Rotator cuff muscles
Supraspinatus(abduction)- most common
Infraspinatus(laterally rotates)-pitching injury
Teres Minor- adducts and laterally rotates
Subscapularis- medially rotates and adducts
c5-c6
Dislocation of lunate
Median nerve injury
Axillary nerve injury
surgical neck of humerus
Radial nerve injury
fracture of midshaft of humerus
compressed in axilla via crutch use
Ulnar nerve injury
medical epicondyle fracture, fracture of hook of hamate
Median nerve injury
dislocation of lunate and carpal tunnel syndrome
Long thoracic nerve injury
injury to serratus anterior. C5-c7 lesion. injured via mastectomy. Winged scapula.
Axillary nerve(C5,C6)
Deltoid arm abduction.
Radial(c5-t1)
BEST extensors Brachioradialis Extensors of wrist and fingers Supinator Triceps
Wrist drop
Median nerve(c5-T1)
loss of opposition of thumb, lateral finger flexion, wrist flexion. Ape/pope hand
Ulnar(c8-t1)
Wrist flexion and medial finger flexion lost. Ulnar claw. Radial deviation of wrist upon flexion
Musculocutaneous
Biceps, brachialis, coracobrachialis. Loss of flexion at elbow.
Erb Duchenne, Waiters tip
Tear of C5-c6, seen in delivery of baby w/ trauma.
Paralysis of abductors, medially rotated, forearm pronated
Klumpke’s palsy
C8-T1. Thoracic outlet syndrome, cervical rib compression.
Atrophy of thenar/hypothenar eminences
Atrophy of interosseous muscles
sensory lows on medial side of forearm and hand
disappearance of radial pulse upon moving head to ipsilateral side.
Clawing
Loss of lumbricals which flex at MCP joints and extend both DIP and PIP joints
Median claw
carpal tunnel or dislocated lunate
popes blessing/ape hand
proximal median nerve lesion
Obturator
L2-L4. Anterior hip dislocation injury lesion. Loss of thigh adduction and medial thigh sensory defect
Femoral
L2-L4 Pelvic fracture. Lesion causes thigh flexion and leg extension deficit. Loss of sensory of anterior thigh and middle leg
Common Peroneal
L4-S2. Fibula fracture or compression of lateral leg. Lesions causes foot eversion dorsiflexion. Sensory defect of anterolateral leg and dorsal of foot
PED- Peroneal Everts and dorsiflexes (with injury thus FOOT DROP)
Tibial
L4-S3. Knee trauma. Causes foot inversion and plantarflexion. Loss of sensory on sole of foot.
TIP- tibial inverts and plantarflexes
Superal gluteal
L4-L1. Due to posterior hip dislocation or polio. Thigh abduction lost. Positive trendelenburg sign, contralateral hip drop
Inferior gluteal
L5-s2. posterior hip dislocation. cant jump, climb stairs, or rise from seated position.
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Pathologic fractures, hearing loss, blue sclera
Achondroplasia
Normal-sized head and vertebral column, shortened arms and legs, normal growth hormone and IGF1 levels.
