a commonly used prefix for determining direction which means upon or on top is - CORRECT
ANSWER-epi

CORRECT ANSWER-increaed in size
ipsilateral meaning - CORRECT ANSWER-same side
another term used to describe internal rotation - CORRECT ANSWER-medial rotation
if a patient presented with a proximal femoral neck fracture in the hip that was less than 120

A surgeon is performing a total knee procedure. When the knee is flexed, he inserts a long IM
rod down the tibial shaft to set up a proximal tibial cutting guide tower. In the flexed knee, the
point of reference that describes the position of the tip of the far end of the rod down the tibial
shaft in relation to the cutting block tower that is placed on the rod over the tibial eminence is: -
CORRECT ANSWER-distal
the thigh is what region of the body - CORRECT ANSWER-the region from the hip to the knee
,the leg is what region of the body - CORRECT ANSWER-the region from the knee to the ankle
the appendicular skeleton is comprised of: - CORRECT ANSWER-pectoral girdles, the upper
limbs, pelvic girdle, lower limbs
a long bone is - CORRECT ANSWER-cylindrical in shape being longer than it is wide
When we discuss bone changes in form and function due to mechanical stresses and the force
of muscular tension placed on it, we are discussing: - CORRECT ANSWER-Wolffs Law
the flexible connective tissue found on joint surfaces which allows joint surfaces to slide against
one another is called - CORRECT ANSWER-cartilage
Acl origin and insertion - CORRECT ANSWER-originates on the lateral femoral condyle and
inserts on the anterior surface of the tibial platue (AL)
T/F: the point of origin of a muscle is a location where a muscle can move - CORRECT ANSWER-
False
the arcs of flexion in the knee are - CORRECT ANSWER-screw home, functional and deep flexion
the mechanical axis of the lower extremity is determined by drawing a straight line from: -
CORRECT ANSWER-the center of the femoral head to the center of the ankle joint
T/F: the anatomic axes in the lower extremity are represented by two mutually exclusive lines -
CORRECT ANSWER-true
, When we refer to the the "functional axes" of the knee, we reference the combination of
rotations around what two axes? - CORRECT ANSWER-The TEA of the femur and the longitudinal
axis of the tibia
The flexion-extension axis closely correspond the the insertion points of what two ligamentous
soft tissue structures in the knee joint? - CORRECT ANSWER-MCL and LCL
The "anatomical" or clinical axis the the knee is an imaginary line that connects - CORRECT
ANSWER-the most prominent points of the medial and lateral epicondyles
the "surgical" epicondylar axis is and imaginary line that connects - CORRECT ANSWER-the
medial epicondylar sulcus with the prominence of the lateral epicondyle
Which distal femoral condyle in the knee joint has a sulcus? - CORRECT ANSWER-medial
Whitesides line is - CORRECT ANSWER-perpendicular to the surgical TEA
The posterior condylar line: - CORRECT ANSWER-marks the outer surface boundaries of the
posterior distal femoral condyles in flexion
Whitesides line is also known as - CORRECT ANSWER-The trochlear A/P axis
Where is Whitesides line drawn from? - CORRECT ANSWER-a line drawn from the deepest part
of the trochlear groove posteriorly to the center of the intercondylar notch
T/F: the normal human knee has medial pivot? - CORRECT ANSWER-true
is the deep flexion arc passive or active? - CORRECT ANSWER-passive
