Question
Answer
biceps femoris A   Long head - EX at hip; short head - FL of knee, Lat.Rot of flexed knee  
biceps femoris O   Long H. - Ischial Tuberosity (w Semi's); short H.- Linea Aspera  
biceps femoris Ins.   Lateral aspect of head of fibula  
biceps femoris N - Long Head   Sciatic N- tibial division S1,2,3  
biceps femoris N - short head   Sciatic N -peroneal division L5, S 1-2  
this hamstring crosses Both : hip & knee joint   biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimebranosus = HAMSTRINGS  
BTM =?   Biceps Femoris, SemiTendinosus & SemiMembranosus - hamstrings  
when person can not touch their toes while extended knees, which muscle is shortened?   hamstrings  
in which possition do you palpate biceps femoris   prone, w arm of table  
biceps femoris -landmarks for palpating   Ischial tuberosity  
biceps femoris - where do you palpate   hand on middle, posterior thigh, ask for FL of knee (hold leg above table)  
biceps femoris stretch   max EX of Knee, while FL, Int.Rot. & slight ADD at hip  
Location of semiMembranosus   deep to semiTendinosus, hard to PP  
hamstrings - which is most superficial tendon   semiTendinosus  
semi's O   ischial tuberosity  
semiMembranosus Ins   post. med. tibial condyle  
semiTendinosus Ins   Anter. Proxim. tibial shaft  
semi's A   EX of Hip; Fl & Med.Rot of Knee  
semi's N   Sciatic N -tibial division L5,S1-2  
semi's palpation position   prone, hand on middle thigh, askFL knee - hold foot above table  
semi's palpation ladmarks   isch. tuberosity, tendons at medial knee  
semi's Stretch   Prone, max Ex of knee, while FL, slight AB & Ext.Rot at hip  
longest M in body   sartorius  
most superficial M of thigh   sartorius  
forms Lat. border of Femoral triangle   sartorius  
sartorius - origin of name   latin "sartor" = sailor  
bring leg into cross-legged sitting position   sartorius  
sartorius O   ASIS  
sartorius I   upper medial shaft of tibia  
sartorius A - knee   assists - Fl & Med Rot  
sartorius A - Hip   assists - FL, AB & LAt.Rot  
sartorius N   Femoral N L2-4  
most superficial & medial Adductor   gracilis  
which M forms "V" shape with femoral shaft   gracilis  
gracilis O   Inferior ramus of Ant. Pubis  
gracilis I   Medial proximal tibia  
gracilis A - hip   ADD  
gracilis A - knee   FL & Med.Rot of Flexed Knee  
gracilis N   Obturator N L2-4  
gracilis palpation position   supine, slight FL & Lat.Rot at hip  
name origin from Greek "Belly"   Gastrocnemius  
this M can act on knee, ankle Only separately   gastrocnemius  
rises Heel during runnig & jumping   gastrocnemius  
gastrocnemius O   2 heads, Medial -Medial epicondyle of Femur; Lateral H. - Lat. Epicondyl of Femur  
gastrocnemius I   calcaneus via tendo Achilles  
gastrocnemius A -knee   assists- Fl of knee  
gastrocnemius A - ankle   plantar FL  
gastrocnemius N   tibial N S1-2  
gastrocnemius Palp. position   Standing, w support of chair  
which M is stretched by "wall push-up" ?   Gastrocnemius & Plantaris  
this M lies between Soleus & gastrocnemius   plantaris  
lower extremity counterpart M to palmaris longus is?   plantaris  
which M may be missing in some PPL?   plantaris  
plantaris O   Lat. epicondyle of femur  
plantaris I   calcaneus via tendo Achilles  
plantaris A - knee   ASS FL of knee  
plantaris A - ankle   Ass Plantar FL  
plantaris N   tibial N L4,5 S1  
plantaris Palp. position   prone w flexed knee  
"key that unlocks the knee"   popliteus  
deepest M of back of Knee   popliteus  
this M lies under gastrocnemius & Plantaris   popliteus  
this M has diagonal fibers, is small & DEEP   popliteus  
popliteus O   Lat. epicondyle of Femur  
popliteus I   calcaneus via tendo Achilles  
popliteus A   initiates Fl of Knee by Med. Rot(=unlocking) - of tibia  
popliteus N   tibial N L5, S1  
popliteus palp. position   prone w flexed knee  
popliteus Stretch   passive max. Ext.Rot of knee with FL to 20-30 deg. angle  
FL of knee Muscles   Biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimebranosus, sartorius, gracilis, plantaris, gastrocnemius, popliteus
