PT 513 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Greater Trochanter, Thoracolumbar Fascia, Skeleton
Document Summary
Today"s lab pre-work will focus on a virtual dissection of the superficial to deep gluteal region. You will focus on the following questions as you work through the vh dissector. The goals are to get a general understanding of the relationships of the muscles from superficial to deep, medial to lateral. Connect these muscles with the bony landmarks discussed on tuesday to help you consider muscle actions and joint function! We will spend some time on monday in lecture taking a deeper dive into the deep gluteal region, as well as the hip joint. We will discuss additional nerves and blood vessels for this region so please don"t get caught in these details today. For today, please recognize just the superior and inferior gluteal neurovascular bundles and consider what they innervate/supply based on our introduction in lecture on. Please use the following questions to help guide your virtual dissection or exploration of the region using vh dissector.
