What is a limb?
Skeleton
Joints
Pelvis or limb girdle
Hip/Hip Muscles
Lumber and sacral
plexus—getting spinal
nerves out onto limb
Muscles—anterior
and posterior
compartments
Surface anatomy

What is a limb?

Ventral somatic outgrowth of
outer tube





Bones (made of bony tissue,
cartilage, and other tissues)
Joints
Muscles
Nerves (with motor neurons to
muscles, sensory neurons to
skin, proprioceptors)
No viscera--all innervation is
somatic (motor or sensory)
from ventral ramus of spinal
nerve (except autonomics to
blood vessels)

Ankle


Talus--forms ankle
joint

heel
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Foot

Function:



Support weight
Act as lever when walking
Tarsals

Talus = ankle
• Between tibia + fibula
• Articulates w/both

Calcaneus = heel
• Attachment for Calcaneal
tendon
• Carries talus

Hip



Bending on posterior
side is flexion (except
hip)
Bending on anterior
sided is extension
(except hip)


Flexion/extension
Abduction/adduction
Lateral/medial rotation
Flexion/extension
Pelvic tilt and a reverse lumbar curve
(or how we got to be upright)

Bowl concept
pelvis spills forward
 Hernia
 “beer belly”
 In human minor pelvis is
behind (posterior) to guts
and abdominal cavity


Compare human pelvic
position with quadruped
(cat for instance)
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Human pelvis still
has quadruped
orientation
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Bony structure of the pelvis
MAIN STRUCTURES
 Hip bone (innominate,
os coxae)--fusion of






Ilium (“hips”)
Ischium (“rear”)
Pubis (anterior midline)
Sacrum and coccyx
Acetabulum
Femur--head, neck,
greater trochanter
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
HOLES
 False and true pelvis
(major, minor pelvis)
 Pelvic inlet, pelvic outlet
 Sacrotuberous ligament
 Sacrospinous ligament
 Greater, lesser sciatic
foramen
 Obturator foramen
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Female






Cavity is broad, shallow

Pelvic inlet oval + outlet round 
Bones are lighter, thinner

Pubic angle larger

Coccyx more flexible, straighter 
Ischial tuberosities shorter, more 
everted
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Male
Cavity is narrow, deep
Smaller inlet + outlet
Bones heavier, thicker
Pubic angle more acute
Coccyx less flexible, more curved
Ischial tuberosities longer, face
more medially
Posterior and
lateral hip

Gluts (gluteal nn.)



Lateral rotators (spinal nn.)

Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Maximus—extensor of thigh
Medius--pelvic tilt (relative to
insertion with foot planted)
Piriformis syndrome

Iliopsoas
iliacus

Quadratus

Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Lumbar and
sacral plexus
Mr. Bill is happy—so
easy
 Lumbar plexus forms
femoral n.—anterior
 Sacral plexus forms
sciatic n.--posterior

Femoral n.
Sciatic n.
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb

With leg out to
side like
quadruped,
lumbar-anterior,
sacral-posterior
makes sense

Lumbar plexus
(femoral nerve)
Frolich, Human Anatomy, Lower LImb
Sacral plexus
(sciatic nerve)
Dermatomes show twisting of
leg during development
Dorsal becomes anterior:
thus “dorsiflexion” and
extension in anterior
compartment (unlike upper
limb)
Ventral becomes posterior:
thus flexion is in posterior
compartment (unlike upper
limb)

Human gait
Humans only large
mammal marathoners,
ultra-runners
 Prehistoric cultures
hunted by exhausting
large prey
 Bipedalism very efficient
energetically
 Gastroc-Achilles spring
 One other large mammal
more efficient—also
bipedal
