popliteal notch |
on the posterior intercondylar area of tibia where the PCL attaches |
|
Gerdy's tubercle |
on lateral condyle, anterior aspect of tibia, where IT band attaches |
|
groove for semimembranosus tendon |
on medial condyle, posterior aspect of tibia |
|
surfaces + borders of tibia |
- anterior, medial, and lateral borders - medial, posterior, lateral surface - medial surface has no muscle origins - anterior border and most medial border are subcutaneous and normally palpable |
|
what muscle tendon runs along the medial malleolar sulcus? |
medial malleolar sulcus is on the posterior surface of the tibia and the tibialis posterior tendon runs along it. |
|
primary ossification center of tibia located and when does it appear? |
located at diaphysis of tibia and appears at 7-8 weeks in utero |
|
subcutaneous and normally palpable parts of fibula |
the head of the fibula, the distal triangular part of anterior border, lateral malleolus |
|
anterior compartment muscles of leg |
extensors/dorsiflexors; postaxial; innervated by posterior division of ventral rami |
|
lateral compartment muscles of leg |
everters; postaxial; posterior division of ventral rami |
|
posterior compartment muscles of leg |
flexors/plantarflexors; preaxial; anterior division of ventral rami |
|
pott's fracture |
fracture of fibular diaphysis, medial malleolar avulsion, and tallar displacement - occurs during ankle sprain |
|
osgood-schlatter disease |
overuse injury - child is growing but constant tension of quadraceps causes bone to grow |
|
three surfaces that comprise the trochlea |
medial malleolar (comma shaped), superior, and lateral malleolar (triangular shaped) ---- the talus |
|
neck of talus (sulcus tali) |
sulcus tali and sulcus calcanei form the hollow space. The lateral part of the space is sinus tarsi and medial part of space is the canalis tarsi. |
|
during normal development does medial deviation of the head of the talus increase or decrease? |
it decreases |
|
what three main arteries send branches to talus |
-fibular/peroneal; anterior tibial; posterior tibial -anterior tibial artery becomes dorsalis pedis artery |
|
what soft tissue structure attaches to the calcaneal tuberosity? |
achilles tendon |
|
what facet is found on the anterior surface of calcaneous? |
articular facet for the cuboid |
|
what ligament attaches at the cuboid promontory? |
long plantar ligament |
|
what runs along the peroneal notch and sulcus? |
fibularis longus |
|
what muscle tendon attaches on the navicular tuberosity? |
tibialis posterior |
|
fibers of what ligament attach at the navicular tuberosity? |
tibionavicular |
|
three types of calcaneonavicular coalition |
- bony elongations of each tarsal united by cartilage, fibrous connection (syndesmosis), bony bar (synostosis) |
|
lateral cuneiform- what muscles sends tendon fibers to the crest |
tibialis posterior |
|
what muscle originates in part from the crest of the lateral cuneiform? |
flexor hallucis brevis |
|
Synarthrosis |
Fibrous joints. Suture = skull; gomphosis = tooth; syndesmosis = inferior tibiofibular |
|
Synarthrosis |
Fibrous joints. Suture = skull; gomphosis = tooth; syndesmosis = inferior tibiofibular |
|
Amphiarthrosis |
Cartilaginous joints. Primary cartilaginous = synchondrosis. Secondary cartilaginous = symphysis |
|
Synostosis |
