Q2 Exam 2 Flashcards
What two veins connect the cephalic vein to the external jugular vein?
omobrachial and axillobrachial
what ligament in the elbow prevents over-extension of the elbow?
oblique ligament
“dropped elbow”
avulsion fracture at olecranon process, since all of the heads of the triceps insert here
lacertus fibrosus
Fibrous band connected to biceps brachi in the horse, forearm, connects GH joint to elbow in passive stay apparatus
What vein joins the cephalic to the brachial?
Median cubital vein
flexor retinaculum
encloses the carpal tunnel in carnivores, where the flexor tendons pass into the foot, inflammation can compress median nerve
what ligaments keep dogs from dragging their claws on the ground while walking?
dorsal elastic ligaments
which muscle controls protrusion of the claws?
flexor digitorum profundus
When removing the dewclaw, what joint do you want to cut at?
MTP joint
Which two arteries anastamose at the deep and superficial palmar arch?
radian and ulnar
Which portion of the cutaneous brachium is innervated by the radial nerve?
lateral leg, to dorsal and medial surface of paw
Which portion of the cutaneous brachium is innervated by the ulnar nerve?
caudal leg, lateral surface of paw
Which portion of the cutaneous brachium is innervated by the median nerve?
plantar surface of paw
Which portion of the cutaneous brachium is innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve?
medial leg
what is the pastern in a horse?
PI + PII
which metacarpals join in cattle to form the cannon bone?
metacarpus III and IV
axial articular ligaments
present in cattle because ligaments on a single phalange between the toes (close to axis)
terminal arch
final anastomose between the lateral and medial blood supply in horses inside PIII
which three tendons have to rupture for the fetlock to overextend to touch the ground
superficial and deep digital flexors, and interosseous
what is a result of a rupture of the peroneus tertius?
you can extend the hock while the stifle is flexed
what creates a locked patella?
medial patellar ligament remains hooked over the medial trochlear ridge of the femur
what are the two ligaments involved in the suspensory apparatus?
interosseous ligament and distal sesamoid ligaments
what are the two ligaments involved in the suspensory apparatus?
distal and proximal check ligaments in forelimb, in hindlimb also flexor digitorum superficialis instead of proximal
what are the four components of the stay apparatus in the thoracic limb?
serratus ventralis, biceps brachi, lacertus fibrosus, and ECR
