Pes anerinus ? |
Pes anserinus ("goose foot") refers to the conjoined tendons of three muscles that insert onto the proximal part of the medial surface of the shaft of tibia. The muscles are the Sartorius, Gracilis and Semitendinosus. |
|
Muscles of the pelvic region that move the femur? (Pecky goods often intrigue old silly quacks?) |
Piriformis Gluteus Maximus Obturator Internus Inferior Gemellus Obturator Externus Superior Gemellus Quadratus Femoris |
|
Three muscles on the medial aspect of the thigh are? |
Adductor longus Adductor brevis Adductor Magnus * all 3 muscles adduct flex and rotate the femur at the hip joint. Note: also can function either as flexor or extensor. |
|
Adductor Hiatus ? |
The distal tendons of insertion (of the adductor Magnus) are split just superior to the medial epicondyle of the femur; the space formed by the split is called the Adductor Hiatus... |
|
Medial compartment |
Adductor Magnus Adductor Longus Adductor Bervis Pectineus Gracillis *Inervation: Pectineus = Femoral nerve - all else is Obturator Nerve |

Popliteal Fossa |
A diamond shaped area on the posterior aspect of the knee that is clearly visible when the knee is flexed. The fossa is bordered Supro laterally by semimembranosus and semitendinosus and inferolaterally by the lateral and medial heads of the gastrocnemius. |

Anterior compartment of the leg |
Tibialis anterior Extensor Hallucis Longus Extensor digitorum longus Fibularis (Peroneus) tertius *innervation= deep fibular (peroneal) nerve |
