ERROR:
#7 is CUBOID
#4 is LATERAL
CUNEIFORM
• Very similar to the upper extremity
• Some definitions:
a. Thigh – part from the hips to knees
b. Leg – part from the knee to the ankle
• Note that the hip joint is a ball and socket joint.
It allows movement in all direction. The knee
only allows flexion and extension – not
circumduction. It is never normal for
hyperextension of knee (genu recurvatum)
CAT
In humans, the
abdominal aorta
terminates into
the common
iliac arteries.
The common
iliacs divide into
the external and
internal iliacs.
In humans, the
aorta terminates
as the middle
sacral artery.
• The nerves of the lower extremity are
simpler than the upper limb. There are
three nerves entering the thigh. Their
lateral branches serve the gluteal muscles.
femoral nerve
obturator nerve
sciatic nerve

• The only one of the three that travel below
the knee is the sciatic nerve.
• The sciatic nerve branches into two nerve:
1. tibial nerve
2. common peroneal nerve
a. Superficial peroneal nerve
b. Deep peroneal nerve

• The anterior compartment of the thigh is
homologous to the posterior compartment
of the arm.
• The posterior compartment of the thigh is
homologous to the anterior compartment
of the arm.
• The leg has three compartments
1. Anterior compartment
- dorsiflexors (flexors) of the foot
- deep peroneal nerve
2. Posterior compartment
- plantarflexors (extensors) of the foot
- tibial nerve
3. Lateral compartment
- extensors of the foot
- superficial peroneal nerve

• The FASCIA LATA (not to be confused with
the muscle of similar name) is connective
tissue on the lateral side of the femur.
This forms the ILIOTIBIAL BAND. This
band connects the ilium and tibia and is
the site of inflammation in runners –
iliotibial band syndrome.

• The rectus femoris cross two joints, therefore it has
actions on the two joints involved.
• The patella is articulates with the FEMUR, not the tibia.
• The patella is attached to the femur and tibia by the
PATELLAR LIGAMENT. When this ligament is pulled,
the patella is lifted superiorly and brings the leg into an
extended position.
• In the posterior leg, the GASTROCNEMIUS muscle is
responsible for plantarflexion. It originates at the femur
and inserts on the posterior surface of the calcaneus. It
crosses two joints so it can flex the knee and plantarflex
(extend) the foot. It is innervated by the tibial nerve.

Intrinsic Muscles of the Foot
• These muscles all originate and insert on
foot bones.
• They help to flex, extend, abduct, or
adduct the toes.
• All the intrinsic muscles of the foot are
found on the plantar surface (except the
one on the dorsal aspect).
• The plantar muscles are arranged in 4
layers, from superficial to deep.
