Motion The proximal tibiofibular joint is a synovial plane joint. The lateral condyle of the tibia articulates with the articular facet of the head of the fibula. It allows very little movement. Slight movement occurs to accommodate the movement of the medial malleolus and fibula during plantar or dorsiflexion of the foot. Stability The fibrous
Anatomy Origin: Sides of vertebra T12 to L5 and transverse processes of L1 to L5. Insertion: Lesser trochanter of the femur. Key Relations: -The ureter passes along the medial aspect of the psoas major muscle as it enters the pelvis. -Forms the floor of the femoral triangle. -The femoral nerve (L2 to L4) travels through
Anatomy Origin: Lateral surface of T12 and L1 and the intervening intervertebral disc. Insertion: Pectineal line of pelvic brim and iliopubic eminence and iliac fascia. Key Relations: -Found in only 60% of population. -When present it is found lying across the surface of the psoas major muscle. Functions Weakly flexes the trunk. Supply Nerve Supply:

Anatomy Origin: Medial surface of distal ulna. Insertion: Lateral Surface of distal radius. Key Relations: One of the three muscles in the deep anterior compartment of the forearm. Functions -Pronates the forearm and hand at the radioulnar joint. -Deep fibres bind the radius and ulna together. e.g.: as in loosening a screw (right hand). Supply
Anatomy Origin: Humeral head: Medial epicondyle of humerus via the common flexor tendon, and adjacent supraepicondylar ridge. Ulnar head: Medial aspect of the coronoid process of ulna. Insertion: Roughening on lateral surface of radial shaft near its midpoint. Key Relations: -The median nerve courses between the two heads of pronator teres in 80% of people.
