Document Summary
Lower limbs 1: the pelvic girdle and muscles of anterior thigh. Describe the movements of the lower limb. Describe the bony structures of the lower limb (pelvic girdle, femur, tibia, fibula, and foot) Describe the organization of the muscles of the thigh into 3 compartments. Describe the 7 muscles of the anterior compartment of the thigh. Note that flexion of the limbs occurs on opposite planes compared to the upper limbs and hip, versus the lower limbs. Lateral and medial rotation of the lower limb: lateral rotation is when your foot makes a v, medial rotation is when your foot returns to the midline/points together. Movements of the foot: dorsiflexion move foot up, plantar flexion move foot down (plant it on the ground) Inversion ankle towards midline (lateral edge of foot goes on the ground: eversion ankle away from midline (opposite of inversion) The pelvis is formed by the fusion of 3 bones during development (ischium, pubis, and illium)
