Cases

1. A 12 year old boy following an inadvertent intramuscular injection in the gluteal region developed certain neurological deficits including difficulty to dorsiflex the foot. With your knowledge of Anatomy answer the following questions:
  • Mention briefly the structures under cover of gluteus maximus
  • Name the structure which is affected in this case. Give its origin, course and distribution in the thigh
  • Give the cutaneous innervations of lower limb below knee
  • Name the muscles responsible for dorsiflexion and eversion of foot (2+4+2+2=10 marks)


2. A footballer is suffering from sustained injury to his right knee while kicking. His leg got forcefully abducted in a slightly flexed position.
  • Which is the likely meniscus has injured in this case.
  • Why this meniscus is more prone to injury as compared to the other one.
  • Enumerate the other intra capsular structures of the knee joint
  • Briefly describe the process of locking and unlocking at the knee joint (1+2+3+4 = 10)

3. While driving a car, a 30 year old man was accidently hit against a tree. He was rushed to the hospital. His chief complaint was that, he could not stand up because of severe pain. Physical examination revealed, his lower limb was slightly flexed, adducted, medially rotated and appeared shorter than the other limb. X-rays were taken. Posterior dislocation of the right hip with fracture of the posterior margin of acetabulum was diagnosed. With your knowledge in anatomy answer the following:
  • Mention the type and articular surfaces of hip joint
  • Describe the ligaments
  • Describe the blood supply of the joint giving its clinical importance
  • Which nerve is prone to get injured in this case? What is its origin and root value?
  • Enumerate the movements of the hip joint and the muscles producing them (1+3+2+2+2=10)
