Q

know the vicinity of adductor longs, gracilis and pectinius

A

pectinous is a small muscle up at the top most lateral and it goes about to the middle of femur (its upper inner leg )
adductor longis is the next most medial above knee on medial side move up on inner leg
gracilis is the most medial… it connects to pubic symphisis

Q

Tensor fasciae latae and iliotibial tract

A

Have Gannon side lie. Go posterior and distal to ASIS and have Gannon medially rotate lip and relax. Thats tensor fascia latae right under the hip.
For iliotibial tract have him lift the top leg and feel above the lateral knee the superficial and stringy fibers

Q

Lateral femoral condyle

A

its on the knee itself its on the lateral side

“move medially from lateral epicondyle. Sometimes flexing knee can help you feel this rounded area”

26
Q

Medial femoral epicondyle

A

the boney ridge on the medial side of knee (not on the knee itself)

27
Q

lateral femoral epicondyle

A

the boney ridge on the lateral side of knee (not the knee itself)

28
Q

lateral rotators

A

have Gannon prone - these are on the top middle of one buttcheek and have him lateral rotate

29
Q

Medial tibial plateau

A

go to patellar ligament and feel the edges (inferior to knee)- bend the knee and straighten the knee and you should feel the joint space

30
Q

Lateral tibial plateau

A

go to patellar ligament and feel the edges go to the lateral dip bend the knee and straighten the knee and you should feel the edges

31
Q

Pes anserinus

A

goto tibial tuberosity and theres a flat area there- medial side and feel for tenderness

32
Q

meniscus

A

goto tibial plateau and medially rotate the knee. Bend knee and medially rotate

33
Q

Sustentaculum tali

A

the bump directly under the medial malleolus . Its on your calcaneous

34
Q

Peroneal trochlea

A

the bump under the lateral malleolus

its on your calcaneous

35
Q

Tuberosity of calcaneus

A

very tip of the back of your heel

base of the heel, large flat bump

36
Q

Malleolar grooves

A

wrote down they are jus the grooves on the back of each malleolus

37
Q

Adductor tubercle

A

on femur, above pes anserinus, on medial side, strum to feel tendon

38
Q

head of talus

A

two inches towards toes from medial malleolus. So its kinda at a diagonal angle down and forwards on inner foot and is a bump

39
Q

Trochlea of the talus

A

(between both maleolli on top, more lateral)- goto the head of the tulus, and them move a little bit laterally

40
Q

Tuberosity of the 5th metatarsal

A

lateral bump at base of pinky toe metatarsal

41
Q

How to find medial, middle and lateral cuneiform

A 
medial = base of 1st metatarsal
middle = base of 2nd metatarsal
lateral = base of 3rd metatarsal
42
Q

Navicular

A

proximal to medial cunieform

43
Q

cuboid

A

base of metatarsal of pinky toe. Have Gannon plantar flex

44
Q

Gastronemius

A

have landon lie prone (face down), go into plantar flexion and lift his ankle up a little. Push it down at the ankle and tell him to resist. Then you can feel it .

45
Q

Soleus

A

Have landon lay on his stomach, with knee bents all the way to a 90 degree angle and feel deep to gastrin

46
Q

Peroneus longus and brevis

A

Side laying. Between head of fibula and lateral malleolus. Evert foot (turn towards pinky toe) and feel about half way up on lateral side of fibula

47
Q

tibialis anterior

A

invert foot and dorsiflex the ankle- find the tiba and its just barely lateral

48
Q

partner seated with knee flexed, place thumb above medial tibial plataue, have person medially rotate knee

56
Q

Medial meniscus

A

partner seated with knee flexed, place thumb above medial tibial plataue, have person medially rotate knee
