The team doctor tells a football player that he has "a pulled hamstring" muscle. This results from a tearing of the origin of a hamstring muscle from the:

If the head of the femur is dislocated postero-medially, compression of which nerve is likely to result?

What muscle passes through the lesser sciatic foramen?

In order to avoid injury to the sciatic nerve, intramuscular injections should be given in which quadrant of the buttock?

The femoral artery enters the popliteal fossa (becoming the popliteal artery) by passing through the:

The short head of biceps femoris muscle is innervated by which nerve?

As a patient with paralyzed gluteus medius and minimus muscles on the left side attempts to stand on the left limb only, the right side of the pelvis typically:

When the femur is fractured, the broken distal end often turns posteriorly to enter the popliteal fossa due to muscle traction. Because of its position deepest in the fossa, which structure is most vulnerable to laceration?

The deep femoral artery is the principle blood source for the muscles in which compartment of the thigh?

A fracture of the ischial tuberosity might be expected to most directly affect the muscles that produce which lower limb movement?

When, in approximately 12% of people, the common fibular nerve passes through the piriformis muscle, the nerve may be compressed. This would affect part of which muscle?

An elderly patient complains of difficulty in walking up stairs. Tests by her doctor reveal weakness in extension at her hip, but no change in hip flexion, or flexion or extension of the knee. Based upon these results, what muscle is most likely not functioning properly.

Weakness in climbing stairs or jumping would indicate a lesion of which nerve?

During surgical repair of a popliteal artery aneurism, ligation of the femoral artery at mid-thigh would not interrupt supply to the hamstring muscles because the

The medial thigh muscles rotate the femur medially, counterbalanced by muscles of the ___ thigh, including the _ muscle, which rotates the femur laterally.

The hamstrings muscles are supplied by branches of which artery?

Of the branches of the internal iliac artery, the one exiting from the greater sciatic foramen superior to the piriformis muscle is the:

Because of its muscle attachments, a fracture to the ischial tuberosity would affect which movement of the lower limb?

When the distal femur is fractured, the sharp broken ends of the bone often damage the structure that lies closest to the femur in the popliteal fossa, i.e., the:

In a hunting accident, an arrow pierces the mid-calf of a hunter. A major artery is lacerated in the posterior leg, and you notice that the sole of his foot is cold and pale. The dorsum of the foot is warm and normally colored. The artery that seems to be injured is the:

A patient complains of localized pain in a swollen lower calf and cannot strongly plantar flex his foot. What tendon may have ruptured?

A tennis player feels a "pop" in her calf as she is playing. Her calf becomes tender and there is some slight amount of swelling. Upon examination, her physician informs her that she has ruptured the slender tendon of a small muscle that attaches to the calcaneus. She has apparently ruptured the:

A football player tears his calcaneal tendon. You would expect to find weakness in:

While on vacation in Florida following her final exams, a scuba diving medical student is accidentally speared by her diving partner. The end of the spear passes medial to lateral, posterior to the medial malleolus. It severs an artery there, which is the:

A patient with painful swelling in the distal calf cannot plantar flex at the ankle with any power. Which tendon was likely ruptured?
