wk 4- attachments and nerve supplies Flashcards
what are the compartments of the gluteal region
superficial (gluteal muscles) and deep (everything else)
what ligament turns the greater and lesser sciatic notch into foramen?
sacrotuberous ligament and sacrospinoous ligament
gluteus max origin and insertion + actions
extensor of hip joint
lateral rotator
abductor
origin- posterior gluteal line, iliac crest, posterior surface of sacrum and coccyx
insertion- iliotibial tract of fascia late and gluteal tuberosity of femur
gluteus medius action, origin and insertion
major abductor and lateral rotator of hip joint
origin- gluteal surface of ilium between anterior and posterior gluteal lines
insertion- lateral surface of greater trochanter of femur
gluteus miniums action, origin, insertion
major abductor and medial rotator of hip
origin- gluteal surface of ilium between anterior nd inferior gluteal lines
insertion- anterior surface of greater trochanter of femur
what prevents pelvic drop on swing limb ?
Gluteus medius and minimus work together to prevent
pelvic drop on swing limb during walking.
deep gluteal muscles actions
lateral rotators of the hip joint
piriformis origin and insertion
o- anterior surface of sacrum between anterior sacral Foramina
I- medial side of superior border of greater trochanter
obturator internus location
o- pelvic surface of obturator membrane
I- medial surface of greater trochanter just superior to trochanteric fossa
superior gemellus location
o- external surface of ischial spine
I- same as obturator internus, medial surface of greater trochanter just superior to trochanteric fossa`
inferior gemellus location
o- superior surface of ischial tuberosity
I- same as obturator internus, medial surface of greater trochanter just superior to the fossa
quadrates femoris location
o-lateral surface of the body of ischium, anterior to tuberosity
I-quadrate tubercle of femur
obturator externes location
I- trochanteric fossa of femur
common function of superficial gluteal muscles
major extensor of the hip joint (max)
major abductor and lateral rotator of hip (med)
major abductor and medial rotator (min)
common function of deep gluteal muscles
all lateral rotators of hip joint
compartments of the thigh region
anterior, medial and posterior
what nerve supplies each compartment of the thigh
anterior- femoral nerve
medial- obturator nerve
posterior- sciatic (mostly by tibial branch nerve)
common actions of the anterior comp of thigh
extension of the knee joint
common functions of the medial thigh comp
adduction of the hip
common functions of the posterior comp of thigh
extension of the hip and flexion of the knee
what muscles make up pes anserinus (goose foot)
gracilis
semitendinosus
sartorius
(medial insertion attachment of the tibia)
iliopsoas actions and insertion
flexor and lateral rotator of hip
I- lesser trochanter of femur
