Mr. Stick Man and Anatomical Guides/Limits
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the terminal branches of the aorta | right and left common iliacs |
| runs along the superior medial border of the psoas major muscle toward the lower extremity | common iliacs |
| along the inferior medial border of the psoas major muscle | external iliacs |
| passes obliquely inferiorly and laterally along the border of the psoas major from the bifurcation of the common iliac to a point beneath the inguinal ligament, passes through the inguinal ligament midway between the anterior superior crest of the ilium | external iliacs |
| bound laterally by the sartorius muscle, medially by the adductor longus, and superiorly by the inguinal ligament | femoral |
| begins at a point behind the inguinal ligament and ends at the opening of the adductor magnus muscle | femoral |
| guide: a line drawn on the surface of the thigh from the center of the inguinal ligament to a point on the medial condyle of the femur | femoral |
| descends from the opening of the adductor magnus to the lower border of the popliteus muscle | popliteal |
| a line drawn through the center of the popliteal space parallel to the long axis of the lower extremity | popliteal |
| originates at the bifurcation of the popliteal artery at the lower border of the popliteal space, becomes the dorsalis pedis | anterior tibial |
| begins at the inferior border of the popliteal space and ends in front of the ankle joint | anterior tibial |
| a line drawn from the lateral border of the patella to the anterior surface of the ankle joint | anterior tibial |
| lies between the groove between the tendon of the hallucis longus muscle and the tendon of the extensor digitorum longus muscle on the dorsal surface of the foot | dorsalis pedis |
| a line drawn from the center of the anterior surface of the ankle joint to a point midway between the big toe and the adjacent toe | dorsalis pedis |
| two arteries that proceed from the dorsalis pedis (in order) | arcuate, digital arteries |
| groove behind and below the medial malleolus | posterior tibial |
| begins at the lower border of the popliteal space and ends at the origin of the abductor hallucis muscle | posterior tibial |
| a line drawn from the center of the popliteal space to a point midway between the medial malleolus and the calcaneus | posterior tibial |
| two arteries that proceed from the posterior tibial (in order) | medial and lateral plantar arteries, digital arteries |
| begins at a point behind the sternoclavicular articulation and extends to the lateral border of the first rib | right subclavian |
| begins at the level of the second costal cartilage and extends to the lateral border of the first rib | left subclavian |
| the right subclavian originates from | brachiocephalic |
| the left subclavain originates from | arch of the aorta |
| 3 superior branches of the subclavians in order | vertebrals, basilar, circle of willis |
| 3 inferior branches of the subclavians | internal thoracics, thyrocervical trunk, costocervical trunk |
| along or just behind the medial border of the coracobrachialis muscle | axillary |
| begins at the lateral border of the first rib and extends to the inferior border of the teres major muscle | axillary |
| a line drawn through the center of the base of the axillary space and parallel to the long axis of the upper extremity when abducted | axillary |
| lies posterior to the medial border of the belly of the biceps brachii | brachial |
| begins at the lower border of the tendon of the teres major and extends inferior to the antecubital fossa | brachial |
| lateral to the tendon of the flexor carpi radialis | radial |
| extends from a point inferior to the antecubital fossa to the center of the base of the index finger | radial |
| two branches of the radial artery in order | deep palmar arch, digital arteries |
| lies lateral to the tendon of the flexor carpi ulnaris, between the tendons of the flexor carpi ulnaris and the flexor digitorum superficialis | ulnar |
| extends from the antecubital fossa to a point between the 4th and 5th fingers | ulnar |
| one branch of the ulnar arteries | digital arteries |
