• the iliolumbar ligaments attaching to the transverse processes of L5 and the iliac crest.
• e sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments attach the sacrum to the ischium and oppose downwards rota­tion of the sacrum in the sagittal plane.
• e sacrotuberous ligament passes from the ischial tuberosity to the side of the sacrum and coccyx.
• e sacrospinous ligament passes from the ischial spine to the side of the sacrum and coccyx.
• e sacrospinous and sacrotuberous ligaments dene two important exits from the pelvis:
• the greater sciatic foramen, formed by the sacrospi-
nous ligament and the greater sciatic notch
• the lesser sciatic foramen, formed by the sacrotuber-
ous ligament and the lesser sciatic notch.
• Major anatomical relations include:
• sacroiliac joints: the internal iliac vessels pass
anteriorly
• pubic symphysis: urethra and deep dorsal vein of the
penis pass inferiorly.
GLUTEAL REGION (Fig. 4.5)
• e muscles of the gluteal region are:
• gluteus maximus
• gluteus medius
• gluteus minimus
• piriformis
• obturator internus
• superior and inferior gemelli
• quadratus femoris
• tensor fasciae latae. e glutei form the mass of the buttock.
Gluteus Maximus
Origin
• Ilium above and behind posterior gluteal line.
• Sacrum and coccyx.
• Sacrotuberous ligament.
Insertion
• lliotibial tract: three-quarters.
• Gluteal tuberosity of femur: one-quarter.
Nerve Supply
• Inferior gluteal nerve (L5, S1, 2).
Actions
• Extension of the thigh.
• Lateral rotator of the thigh.
• Balances pelvis on thigh (with psoas and iliacus).
• Steadies femur on knee joint on standing (via iliotibial tract).
General Points
• Large, coarse muscle with small nerve supply and there­fore not capable of ne or precise movements.
• Covers posterior part of gluteus medius.
• Covers all short muscles around hip joints, the sciatic nerve, the proximal part of hamstrings, both sciatic foramina and the structures passing through them.
• Lower border overlaps ischial tuberosity on standing (but not sitting) and the sacrotuberous ligament.
• Its lower border does not correspond to the gluteal fold.

Greater and Lesser Sciatic Foramina
Sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments convert the sci­atic notches into foramina.
Greater Sciatic Foramen
Piriformis
Origin
• Anterior surface of sacrum.
Boundaries
• Superior and anterior: greater sciatic notch.
• Posterior: sacrotuberous ligament.
CHAPTER 4 The Lower Limb
85
• Inferior: sacrospinous ligament and ischial spine.
Structures passing through the foramen include
• Piriformis.
• Above piriformis:
• superior gluteal vessels
• superior gluteal nerve.
• Below piriformis:
• inferior gluteal vessels
• inferior gluteal nerve
• internal pudendal vessels
• internal pudendal nerves
• sciatic nerve
• posterior cutaneous nerve of thigh
• nerve to quadratus femoris
• nerve to obturator internus.
Lesser Sciatic Foramen
Boundaries
• In front: body of ischium and sacrospinous ligament.
• Behind: sacrotuberous ligament.
Structures passing through the foramen include
• tendon of obturator internus
• nerve to obturator internus
• internal pudendal vessels
• pudendal nerve.
Clinical Points
• e buttock is a common site for intramuscular injections.
• It is important to remember that the buttock extends upwards as far as the iliac crest and laterally as far at the greater trochanter. It does not just include the aestheti­cally pleasing mound.
• e surface marking of the sciatic nerve is represented by a curved line joining the midpoint between the pos­terior superior iliac spine and ischial tuberosity, with the midpoint between the ischial tuberosity and the greater trochanter. Injections into the upper and outer quadrant of the buttock will therefore avoid accidental injection into the sciatic nerve (see Fig. 4.17).
BONES OF THE LEG AND FOOT
The Femur (Fig. 4.6)
• e largest bone in the body, being about 45 cm long.
• Upper end of femur consists of the rounded head, the neck and two processes, the greater and lesser trochanters.
• Head forms two-thirds of a sphere, facing upwards medially and slightly forwards.
• It is covered with cartilage, except at the central fovea where the ligamentum teres is attached.
• e neck is 5 cm long and lies at an angle of 125° to the sha (in the female the angle is slightly smaller).
• e greater trochanter is a massive process which can be palpated as the most lateral bony point in the region of the hip.
• e lesser trochanter is much smaller and it is situated most posteriorly on the femur.
• e junction between neck and sha is marked anteri­orly by the intertrochanteric line, laterally by the greater trochanter, medially and posteriorly by the lesser tro­chanter and posteriorly by the trochanteric crest, which joins the two trochanters.
• e femoral sha is roughly circular in section at its centre but is attened posteriorly at each extremity.
• e posterior surface carries a rough raised line in its middle third, i.e. the linea aspera. In the upper and lower thirds, this line splits into two diverging lines.
• Inferiorly the two diverging lines, i.e. the medial and lat­eral supracondylar ridges, mark the medial and lateral boundaries of a smooth, attened area, i.e. the popliteal surface of the femur.
• e medial supracondylar line ends distally in the adductor tubercle.
• e lower end of the femur bears prominent condyles, which are separated by a deep intercondylar notch pos­teriorly and join anteriorly to form the articular surface for the patella.
• e lateral condyle is more prominent than the medial and acts as a buttress to prevent lateral displacement of the patella.
Blood Supply of the Femoral Head
• is is from:
• vessels from the hip capsule where this is reected
onto the neck in longitudinal bands or retinacula (retinacular vessels)
• vessels travelling up the diaphysis
• an artery in the ligamentum teres, which is a negli-
gible source in the adult.
• e chief source is from the retinacular vessels.
Clinical Points
• Fractures of the femoral neck completely interrupt the blood supply from the diaphysis. If the retinacula are torn, avascular necrosis of the femoral head will occur. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head is much more likely to occur with intracapsular fractures than extra­capsular fractures because intracapsular fractures are more likely to disrupt the retinacular blood ow.
• Fractures of the femoral neck result in shortening, external rotation and adduction of the aected limb. Shortening is because of the strength of the longitu­dinally lying muscles, especially quadriceps and ham­strings. e adductors pull the limb superomedially.

Instead of rotating about an axis between hip and knee, the femur now rotates about the axis of its sha. Because of this, iliopsoas now acts as an external rotator.
gastrocnemius tilts the distal fragment posteriorly and the sharp proximal edge of this fragment impinges upon the popliteal artery.
• Fractures of the femoral sha are accompanied by con­siderable bleeding due to damage of the perforating branches of the profunda femoris artery, which are in close relation to the sha.
• Fractures of the femoral sha are also accompanied by considerable shortening owing to contractions of the powerful surrounding muscles:
• the proximal segment is exed by iliopsoas and
abducted by gluteus medius and minimus
• the distal segment is pulled medially by the adductor
muscles.
• e popliteal artery is closely related to the popliteal surface of the femur. Supracondylar fractures of the femur may damage the popliteal artery. is is because
The Patella
• Largest sesamoid bone in the body. Developed in the expansion of the quadriceps tendon, which continues from the apex of the patella as the ligamentum patellae.
• Anterior surface is roughened for the attachment of part of the quadriceps tendon.
• Posterior surface is smooth and covered with hyaline cartilage for articulation with the corresponding areas of the femur.
• e lateral facet is the larger (this explains how you can ‘side’ a patella—if placed on a at surface with the apex pointing away from you, it will fall to the side to which it belongs).

Fig. 4.7 The lower end of the femur, tibia, fibula, talus and calcaneum. (A) Anterior view. (B) Posterior view.
Clinical Points
• Lateral dislocation of the patella is resisted by the more prominent lateral femoral condyle and by the pull of the lowermost bres of vastus medialis, which insert almost horizontally along the medial margin of the patella. Recurrent dislocation of the patella may occur if the lat­eral condyle of the femur is underdeveloped.
• Direct trauma to the patella may shatter it into several fragments. ese are not avulsed because the quadri­ceps expansion remains intact.
The Tibia (Fig. 4.7)
• e more medial bone of the lower leg. Comprises a sha and an expanded upper and lower end. It alone articulates with the femur at the knee joint, the bula being excluded.
• e upper end is expanded into the medial and lateral condyles, the medial having the greater surface area of the two.
• Between the condyles is the intercondylar area, which bears the intercondylar eminence. e cruciate

SECTION I Anatomy
ligaments are attached to the intercondylar area, as are the horns of the medial and lateral menisci.
• e tuberosity of the tibia is at the upper end of the anterior border of the sha and gives attachment to the ligamentum patellae.
• e sha of the tibia is triangular in cross section, its anterior border and anteromedial surface being subcu­taneous throughout its length.
• e posterior surface of the sha has the soleal line at its upper end, which marks the origin of soleus.
• e interosseous border is on the lateral side and gives attachment to the interosseous membrane, which runs upwards to the sha of the bula.
• e lower end of the tibia expands from the triangular sha into a quadrilateral mass of bone from the medial surface of which the medial malleolus projects down­wards and medially.
• e medial malleolus is grooved posteriorly by the ten­don of tibialis posterior.
• e inferior surface of the lower end of the tibia is smooth, being covered with hyaline cartilage and forms, with the malleoli, the upper articular surface of the ankle joint.
Clinical Points
• e sha of the tibia is subcutaneous anteromedially throughout its course. Being so exposed, it is not sur­prising that the tibia is the most commonly fractured long bone and sustains most compound injuries.
• Lacerations over the subcutaneous surface of the tibia heal poorly because of lack of vascularity in the sub­cutaneous tissues as only the periosteum supports the skin.
The Fibula (Fig. 4.7)
• e bula is a long, thin bone with a small head at its upper end and an expanded lateral malleolus distally.
• e upper end has a head which articulates with the tibia, below which is a neck around which winds the common peroneal nerve.
• e sha is slender and bears an attachment for the interosseous membrane, the bres of which run down­wards and medially towards the tibia.
• e lower end of the bula is expanded to form the lat­eral malleolus, which bears an articular facet medially for articulation with the talus.
• e posterior aspect of the lateral malleolus is grooved by the tendons of peroneus longus and peroneus brevis.
Clinical Points
• e common peroneal nerve winds round the neck of the bula. Damage to the nerve at this point, e.g. fractures of the neck of the bula owing to car-bumper injuries, or tight below-knee plasters, will result in foot drop.
Bones of the Foot (Fig. 4.8)
ese consist of the tarsal bones, metatarsals and phalanges.
The Tarsal Bones
• ese consist of a proximal row and a distal row. e proximal row is made up of:
• talus
• calcaneum
• navicular bone.
• e distal row is made up of:
• the cuboid bone
• the three cuneiform bones.
Talus
• Bears a large facet on the upper surface for articulation with the tibia.
• Bears facets on the medial and lateral sides for the medial and lateral malleoli, respectively.
e superior articular surface is wider in front than behind such that, when the foot is dorsiexed, the talus is wedged between the malleoli, but in plantarexion there is a little play so that a minor degree of tilting can occur at this joint (this is not inversion and eversion, which occurs at the sub­talar joints).
• e talus is grooved posteriorly for the tendon of exor hallucis longus.
• ere are no muscular or tendinous attachments to the talus but a number of ligaments are attached to it (see arches of the foot).
Calcaneum
• Medial side easily recognized because of sustentaculum tali (which is cantilevered out to support the head of the talus).
• ere are two facets for talocalcaneal joints.
• e posterior surface can be divided into three areas:
• the middle, roughened area is for the insertion of
tendo calcaneus
• the upper, smooth area is a site of the bursa between
tendo calcaneus and the bone
• the lower area is covered by a bro–fatty pad that
forms the heel.
• e undersurface has medial and lateral tubercles, of which the former is the larger and is the weightbearing part of the heel.
• e anterior surface consists of an almost plane facet for the cuboid.
Cuboid
• Articulates with the anterior facet on the calcaneum.
• Grooved on its undersurface by the tendon of peroneus longus.
Navicular
• Articulates with the head of the talus behind and with the three cuneiforms in front.

• e rst metatarsal is thickest and sturdiest, bearing on its undersurface two depressions lined with articular cartilage for two sesamoid bones in the tendon of exor hallucis brevis.
• e second metatarsal is the longest and thinnest and in the event of fatigue is liable to break (march fracture).
