i. Most instances of hip joint dislocation in adults are accompanied by fracture of the hip bone or the femoral head. Why?

Hip bone The acetabulum is deep and the femoral head sits deeply in it; relative to cartilage, bone is brittle.

e. We hope you know that one of those two ligaments connects the femur to the tibia and the other connects the femur to the fibula.

I DO NOW! Thanks elliot!!

b. What ligament of the hip joint is challenged by extension of the thigh at the hip? Name a major muscle that will be stretched when you assess the integrity of the ligament you just named. Obviously, if the muscle is resistant to stretching, you will have difficulty assessing the ligament.

Iliofemoral ligament is challenged by extension of the thigh at the hip Muscle that will be stretched when testing extension of the thigh at the hip = iliopsoas muscle (psoas major + iliacus muscle) Iliopsoas attaches to the lesser trochanter

f. Use proper anatomical terms to name the movement that the iliofemoral ligament limits most effectively.

11.17. FOOT ARCHES. F-IAT review. Describe the medial longitudinal arch and the transverse arch of the foot by detailing the bone morphology and soft tissue attachments that produce the arches. a. Which is taller, the medial longitudinal arch or the lateral longitudinal arch?

Medial longitudinal arch

b. Where in the intercondylar fossa does the posterior cruciate ligament attach?

Medially

c. This objective and the previous one also serve as locations for exam items concerning major features of the joints that are not covered in the more specific objectives. For example, there is a muscle tendon inside the joint capsule of the knee joint. What is it? Where in the knee joint is it located?

Muscle tendon in the joint capsule of the knee joint = popliteus muscle tendon Located between the fibrous joint capsule and the lateral meniscus, it passes deep to the lateral collateral ligament of the knee

n. Name a muscle of the leg that has the potential to flatten the medial longitudinal arch by dorsiflexing the forefoot.

Muscle that dorsi flexes forefoot = tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus

d. What bones are connected by the spring ligament?

Navicular and calcaneous

n. Is the lateral collateral ligament securely attached to the knee joint capsule?

No

d. Which of the two cruciate ligaments is more longitudinally oriented?

PCL

Apply the logic you used for questions c and d above to state which ligament is likely to be injured if passive inversion of the foot is painful and to state which ligament is likely to be injured if passive eversion of the foot is painful.

Passive inversion of the foot is painful = anterior talofibular ligament damage Passive eversion of foot is painful = deltoid ligament damage

k. What is the shape of the medial collateral ligament of the knee?

Relatively broad and flat

m. What is the shape of the lateral collateral ligament of the knee?

Round and cord like

Both sets of ligaments between the clavicle and scapula should be assessed to evaluate shoulder separation. Radiograph the patient while *he or she is holding a weight* to distract the upper limb inferiorly. If the ligaments are intact, the scapula will stay aligned with the clavicle. Where will shoulder separation be externally visible?

Shoulder separation will be very visible acromioclavicular joint (the *acromion will be lower than the clavicle*)

m. Name a muscle of the leg that has the potential to flatten the longitudinal arch by plantarflexing the hindfoot. (Read the answer for this one.)

Soleus is the best choice because it does not invert as much as the gastrocnemius does, and it does not draw the medial side of the talus superiorly as effectively as the tibialis posterior does Muscle that flattens longitudinal arch by plantar flexing the hundfoot = Soleus

a. What named ligament is stretched when weightbearing pushes all the bones of the medial longitudinal arch toward the floor?

Spring ligament

a. What occupies the cavity between the bones of a synovial joint? (Here we are referring to the bones as whole organs, including the cartilage on them.)

Synovial fluid

j. What aspects of the anatomy of the hip bone of an infant allow dislocations to occur relatively easily, and without fracture?

The acetabulum is relatively shallow; relative to bone, cartilage is deformable

g. In what direction does the shape of the dome of the talus limit displacement of the foot relative to the tibia and fibula (anterior or posterior)?

The dome of the talus forces the tibiofibular mortise to widen when the foot is displaced posteriorly

g. How does the alignment of fibrous tissue within the capsular ligaments of the hip aid in limiting this movement?

The fibers spiral so they tighten when the thigh extends. For example, the iliofemoral ligament runs from superior on the anterior side of the ilium to inferior on the femur, and the ischiofemoral ligament wraps from the posterior side of the ischium over to the superior surface of the femoral neck

c. Between what two bones does that part of the bone rest?

The head of the talus rests between the navicular bone and calcaneous

b. In health, how large is the space between the bones in that cavity? (Keep in mind that the cartilages are parts of the bones, even though they are not bone tissue.)

Weight bearing or compressed: at their closest points, the bones will be very nearly contacting each other, with just a few microns of fluid between. Distracted or not weightbearing: less than a millimeter

c. The head of the talus is displaced inferiorly relative to neighboring bones in this process. Between what parts of what bones does the head of the talus move?

When weightbearing pushes all the bones of the medial longitudinal arch toward the floor, the head of the talus moves between: Navicular tubrosity of navicular bone and talar shaft of calcaneous

Passive eversion of foot is painful

deltoid ligament damage

c. Is there a synovial joint between the coracoid process of the scapula and the clavicle?

e. How does tension in the flexor hallucis longus tendon influence the medial longitudinal arch during toe-off of stance phase in walking gait?

• Hallucis longus tendon contributes to the restoration of the medial longitudinal arch

c. If the hallucal ray of a foot has normal alignment, what is the principal anatomical action of the flexor hallucis longus muscle?

• Job of flexor hallucis longus = Flexion at the first interphalangeal joint and flexion at the first metatarsophalangeal joint.

f. In what way does that more horizontal alignment limit movement of the tibia relative to the femur?

• More horizontal alignment = ACL • Prevents anterior glide of the tibia relative to the femur

• Navicular bone

e. Finish up this little run of questions by explaining why the space that is seen "between bones" in a radiograph of a healthy joint is much larger than your answer for "b" above.

• On the radiograph we see the gap between bone tissues of the bones, so the distance includes the thickness of the cartilage

j. What sagittal plane movement of the first metatarsal at the first cuneometatarsal joint (representing the forefoot) must occur to return the hallux to the floor?

• Plantar flexion • Hallux = bump on proximal big toe

l. In the adult, a few joints of the limbs are not synovial joints; those that are not synovial joints are a kind of fibrous joint called a syndesmosis. Name and describe the syndesmosis in the upper limb.
