Random Hip/Ankle/Foot anatomy Flashcards
Inverted Y ligament of the hip; located anteriorly and is the strongest
Iliofemoral lig
What does the iliofemoral lig limit?
- Extension
- IR (with extension)
- ER (with flexion)
Which ligament of the hip is located anteriorly and limits hip abduction?
pubofemoral lig
Which ligament of the hip is located posteriorly and limits hip ER?
Ischiofemoral lig
What are the ligaments of the medial ankle?
Deltoid ligament
- very strong ligament
- if injured, usually associated with avulsion fracture
What are the ligaments of the lateral ankle? which is most commonly inured in lateral ankle sprain?
- Anterior talofibular (ATF; most commonly injured)
- Calcaneiofibular
- Posterior talofibular (PTF)
What is in the first layer of the foot?
- Abductor hallicus (MP S1,2)
- Flexor digitorum brevis (MP S1,2)
- Abductor digiti minimi (LP S2,3)
What is in the second layer of the foot?
- Quadratus plantae (MP S1,2)
- Lumbricals (1st = MP S1,2; 2-4 = LP S2,3)
- FHL tendon
- FDL tendon
What is in the third layer of the foot?
- Flexor hallucis brevis ( MP
- Adductor hallucis (LP)
- Flexor digit minimi (LP)
What is in the fourth layer of the foot?
- 3 Plantar interossei (LP)
- 4 dorsal interossei (LP)
- Fibularis longus tendon
- Tibialis posterior tendon
What is deep to the first layer of the foot?
Superficial neurovascular plane
- Post. Tibial artery - Comes in on medial side, below abductor hallucis muscle; Splits into lateral and medial plantar arteries
- Superficial MP n. and LP n. - Tibial nerve follows same path; Splits into lateral and medial plantar nerves
What is deep to flexor digitorum brevis?
plantar digital nerves
What is deep to the 3rd layer of the foot?
Deep neurovascular plane
-deep branches of medial lateral plants nerves and arteries
What nerve supplies the skin on the dorsal aspect of the foot?
Superficial fibular cutaneous nerve
- dorsal medial cut. n.
- dorsal intermediate cut. n.
What nerve supplies the skin on the lateral and posterior part of inferior ⅓ of leg, and lateral side of foot and lateral side of 5th toe?
Sural nerve
What nerve supplies the skin on the most of the sole of the heel?
tibial nerve
What nerve supplies the skin on the lateral sole of the foot?
lateral plantar nerve
What nerve supplies the skin on the medial sole of the foot?
medial plantar nerve
What nerve supplies the skin to the anteromedial leg and angle, and distal to head of 1st metatarsal?
Saphenous nerve
- follows the track of great saphenous v in leg
What tendon runs through the susentaculum tali?
Flexor hallucis longus
