Week 7, Monday
Ant. And Lat. Leg and Dorsum of the Foot ppt.
Know the Osteology
Anterior Compartment Muscles:
Tibialis Anterior
Extensor Digitorum longus
Extensor Hallucis longus
Fibularis Tertius
All innervated by Deep Fibular nerve
All blood supply is Anterior Tibial Artery
All main action is Dorsiflex foot
Learn the O, I, N, Act, and Artery of each muscle
Extensor Retinaculum is thicker portions of superficial fascia super and inferior to the ankle
Tibial Artery changes name after passing “the invisible line drawn from Medial Malleolus to Lateral Malleolus, and changes to Dorsalis Pedis
Not everyone has a Fibularis Tertius
Lateral Compartment Muscles:
Fibularis Longus
Fibularis Brevis
Both innervated by Superficial Fibular nerve
Both blood supply is Fibular Artery
Both action is Everts Foot
Ligaments of the Lower Limb ppt
Superior to Inferior of anterior hip joint:
Iliolumbar ligament
Anterior sacroiliac ligament
Iliofemoral ligament
Pubofemoeral ligament
Posterior hip Superior to Inferior
sacrotuberous ligament
Tendon of rectus femoris
Ischiofemoral ligament
The hip Joint
Lunate surface (is like a crescent moon)
Acetabular notch (the gap of the lunate surface) contains the transverse acetabular ligament
Ligament of the head of the Femur
Fovea for ligament of head is where it goes into the head of the femur
Artery of the head of the femur travels with this and is a branch off the obturator artery
The anterior knee
anterior cruciate ligament goes from lateral posterior to medial anterior
Posterior cruciate ligament runs medial to lateral behind the anterior cruciate
Medial and lateral meniscus run transverse along the anterior side old the knee
Tibial collateral ligament runs down the medial side of the knee (blends with the medial meniscus at one point)
Fibular collateral ligament runs Down the lateral side of the knee
Posterior meniscofemoral ligament holds the lateral meniscus in place and runs on the lateral side of the PCL
Knee joint uses “weeping lubrication”. Cartilage acts like a hard, wet sponge: with pressure some synovial fluid leaks out, once the pressure is released the fluid soaks back into the cartilage.
The Ankle
ankle ligaments are named similar to the bones they attach
Anterior inferior tibiofibular ligament connects the Anterior/inferior tibia and fibula)
Lateral ligament of the ankle contains:
Anterior and posterior talofibular ligament
Calcaneofibular ligament
Medial Ligament of the Ankle (Deltoid ligament)
Ant. Tibiotalar
Post. Tibiotalar
Tibiocalcaneal
TIbionavicular
Hip joint main actions/ functions:
Iliofemoral and ischiofemoral = limit extension
pubofemoral = limits hyperextension and hyperabduction
Acetabular labrum = deepens the socket
Ligamentum Teres Capitis Femoris (aka Ligament of the head of the femur) = Carries the artery to the head of the femur form the Obturator
Knee Join main actions/ functions:
Tibial collateral ligament = Firmly attached to the margin of the medial meniscus
Fibular Collateral Ligament = Doesn’t attach to the lateral meniscus
Medial and Lateral Menisci = deepen the articular surface of the tibia and absorbs shock
ACL = limits hyperextension of the knee
PCL = limits hyperflexion of the knee
Posterior meniscofemoral ligament = Attaches to the lateral meniscus, preventing it from sliding laterally
Introduction to Embryology ppt
Overview of Fertilization
Ovary releases oocyte and moves with Cilia through the Uterine Tube where it is fertilized with sperm
Fertilized ovum is called a Zygote
4-cell stage @2 days
Morula @ 3 days
Early blastocyst @ 4 days
implanting blastocyst @ 6 days
Week 1:
zygote undergoes rapid cellular division, to form Morula, then forming an early blastocyst (called blastogenesis)
Implantation in uterine
Differentiation of trophoblast cell
Spermatozoa unites with or fertilizes an oocyte
Once fertilized, the oocyte is a unicellular structure known as a Zygote
30 hours after fertilization, the zygote undergoes cell division (mitosis), rapidly increasing the cells called Blastomeres
3 days after fertilization = 12-32 blastomeres. Zygote is now called a Morula
4 days after fertilization = enters uterus
A blastocystic cavity appears inside the morula, leading to the Morula now being called a blastocyst
The blastocystic cavity continues to fill with fluid, which separates the blastomeres into 2 parts:
Trophoblast = gives rise to embryonic part of placenta
Embryoblast = gives rise to the embryo
6 days after fertilization = blastocyst attaches to the endometrial epithelium
The Trophoblast proliferates rapidly and differentiates into 2 layers
Cytotrophoblast (inner layer of wall)
Syncyliotrophoblast (facing the endo, outer layer)
This extends through the endometrial epithelium and invades the deeper connective tissue
By day 7, the blastocyst is superficially implanted in the endometrium
Syncytiotrophoblast produes enzymes that allows the blastocyst to burrow into the endometrium
a layer of cells (hypoblast) appears on the surface of the embryoblast, facing the blastocystic cavity
Week 2:
implantation is completed during this time
Rapid proliferation and differentiation of the trophoblast
Formation of the primary umbilical vescle, amniotic cavity and bilaminar embryonic disc
Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG) is produced by the syncytiotrophoblast
HCG maintains hormonal activity that supports the well-being of the blastocyst
A small space appears in the embryoblast
This space is the primordium of the amniotic cavity
The amniotic cavity is enclosed by a layer of cells or the amnion
The embryoblast continues to change, forming a nearly circular bilaminar plate of cells (embryonic disc)
Epiblast= faces the amniotic cavity
Hypoblast= faces the blastocystic cavity
Week 3:
Gstrulaion, Morphogenesis, Neurulation, Condensation of mesoderm
Gastrulation: formation of 3 germ layers
Bilaminar disc becomes Trilaminar disc
This is the beginning of Morphogensis (development into the body form)
Embryo can be called a Gastrula
1st sign is the formation of the primitive streak
formed by the proliferation and miration of epiblast cells to the median part of the embryonic disc
Invagination of epiblastic cells from the primitive streak give rise to Mesenchymal cells that migrate between the epiblast and hypoblast
This process forms 3 layers of cells (or the trilaminar disc) which is comprised of 3 germ layers
Epiblast becomes the ectoderm
Gives rise to Epidermis and its appendages, CNS, PNS, and sensory epithelia of eyes and ears
Migrating epiblastic cells becomes Mesoderm
Gives rise to the dermis, skeletal and striated muscles, heart, blood cells; CT, bone, cartilage, tendons, ligaments
Hypoblast becomes endoderm
Gives rise to the epithelial lining of the body cavities, and the respiratory and digestive tracts
