"Posterior" is a term used to refer to the back or to a body part on or near the back side. The tibia is the medical name for the larger of the two bones that make up the lower leg. The posterior tibial pulse can be felt by placing two fingers, usually the index and middle ...
Two blinded observers measured the bone morphology of tibia and femur including, medial and lateral tibial posterior slope, medial and lateral tibial plateau width, medial and lateral femoral condyle width, femoral notch width, and bicondylar width on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ...
After appropriate aseptic precautions and superficial local anesthetic infiltration of the marked site, a 22-gauge, 1.5-inch B bevel needle or a 50 mm, 22-gauge insulated needle (if a neurostimulation technique is used) is directed toward the posterior aspect of the tibia, posterior to the ...
the electrode posterior to the tibia at a distance mid-way between the ankle and tibial tuberosity. Penetration of the great saphenous vein and posterior neurovascular bundle should be avoided. Theanterior insertioninvolves guiding the electrode through tibialis anterior and the interosseous membrane ...
We learned how to take the posterior tibial pulse in first aid class but I still can't figure it out! The teacher told me to practice at home with family members. I just tried finding it on my mom and dad but I can't! I use my index and middle finger and basically search behind...
The ideal radiologic conditions consist of 80 degrees of knee flexion in both knees maintained with a knee support and a 26 degrees x-ray beam incidence with respect to the tibia. Although such accuracy is rarely obtained in routine clinical practice, even with a variability of +/- 10 ...

Semimembranosus is a fusiform muscle of the posterior thigh. It runs deep to semitendinosus and medial to biceps femoris. Semimembranosus originates from the ischial tuberosity of pelvis and inserts into the medial condyle of tibia. Are you feeling a bit overwhelmed? Learn the attachments, inne...
HISTORY/INTRODUCTION/SCOPE OF THE PROBLEM Controversy persists regarding the role of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In the normal knee, the PCL prevents posterior translation of the tibia and allows the femur to glide posteriorly or rollback on the tibia...
