Carpal bones: trapezium vs.

trapezoid location
Since there's two T's in carpal bone mnemonic sentences, need to know which T is where: -
TrapeziUM is by the thUMB, TrapeziOID is inSIDE. (Alternatively, TrapeziUM is by the thUMB, TrapezOID
is by its SIDE.)

Medial malleolus: order of tendons, artery, nerve behind it ("Tom, Dick, And Nervous Harry"):
From anterior to posterior:
Tibialis
Digitorum
Artery
Nerve
Hallicus
• Full names for these are: Tibialis Posterior, Flexor Digitorum Longus, Posterior Tibial Artery, Posterior
Tibial Nerve, Flexor Hallicus Longus.
(Alternatively: "Tom, Dick ANd Harry". Alternatively: "Tom, Dick And Not Harry".)

Hip posterior dislocation: most likely arrangement for one

"Hitting the brake pedal before the accident":
You are sitting, so hip is flexed, and adducted and medially rotated so can move your foot away from the
gas pedal over to the brake pedal.
• Note: car accidents are most likely cause of posterior dislocation because in this position.

Tibia: muscles of pes anserinus (the muscles attached to tibia's medial side)
"A Girl between Two Sargeants":
Gracilus is between Sartorius and Semitendonosus

Genu valgum vs. genu varum

Genu valGUM (knock-knee): knees are GUMmed together.
Varum (bowleg) is the other by default, or Far rhymes with Var, so knees are far apart.

Cervical vertebra: landmarks at each level

"NoaH Told MariaH To Try Cervical Counting":
Nose (base), Hard palate: C1
Teeth: C2
Mandible, Hyoid bone: C3
Thyroid cartilage (upper): C4
Thyroid cartilage (lower): C5
Cricoid cartilage: C6
Cricoid cartilage (just below): C7

Scared LOvers Tried Positions That They Cant Handle

From Proximal carpals lateral to medial(from thumb to little finger) in direction:SLTP
From Distal carpals Lateral to medial:TTCH(note that trapezIum comes first before trapezOid as letter I
before O.or use what sagittarian use as THUMB for trapeziUM.Dont forget that Scaphoid is commonly
fractured carpal and Lunate commonly disLocated.PateLla-lateral dislocation.Piso-hamate ligament
entrapped ulnar nerve in Tunnel of Guyon.

Oh! Oh! Oh! To Touch And Feel Virgin Girl's Va---a,So(Ahh!) Heaven!

Olfactory, optic(2 eyes not 2 nostrils only 1 nose) Occulomotor, Trochlear, Trigeminal , Abducens, Facial,
Vestibulocochlear(balance and hearing), Glossopharyngeal, Vagus, Spinal Accessory or Accessory,
Hypoglossal.

As to function sing it out load :SE SE MO MO MI MO MI SE MI MI MO MO!(SE-sensory,MO-motor,Mi-

mixed)

If ur not musically inclined just remember:

Some Say Marry Money But My Brother Says Big Brains Matter Most.
S=sensory,M=motor,B-both.

For EOM's (extra ocular ms) remember the formula LR6SO4(lateral rectus for CN6,superior oblique CN4
then the rest are innervated by CN3)take note that oblique ms always act on opposite direction of their
name..superior oblique move or contract when looking down(inferiorly)other movement of SO is Abduct
and Introvert.CN 4 got confuse and the only CN that arises posteriorly.CN 7 looks like a hook that closes
eyes and CN III is like a pillar that prevents closure or maintain it open.

3 muscles that you use in chewing /closing mouth=Masseter,teMporalis,Medial pterygoid=Munch!

opening or Lowers jaw=Lateral pterygoid.

All muscles that starts with PALAT or with palat is innervated by CN 5(trigeminal),except TENSOR veli
palatini who was so tensed, get innervation for CN 10(Vagus),while all that has GLOSSUS are innervated
by CN 12(hypoGLOSSAL) except for PALATOGLOSSAL again get confused whether in Palate or Glossus is
innervated by CN 10(vagus).

Tongue deviates on SAME side of lesion(CN 12) LICK your Lesion!

Uvular deviation (CN 10,vagus)CONTRALATERAL of lesions.

CN 7 for anterior 2/3 of tongue(taste) posterior 1/3 by CN 9.

Hypothalamic functions and lesions:

Satiety center(feeling of fullness)is located on ventromedial nucleus)so lesion on this level will lead you
to grow medially and ventrally coz you will continue to eat.
Feeding center (for hunger)is located on Lateral nucleus.Lesion might work in FASTING during
Lent.always think of lesion to remember this.

just like when you have lesion on ANTERIOR hypothalamus(Cooling Center in response to heat)its like
turning off your AC(airconditioning unit) or just remember Anterior Cooling.Turn ON ur AC when HOT.

Posterior hypothalamus is for heat conservation needed in response to cold.Turn ON your PC(Personal
Computer to get HOT)sorry can't elaborate on this just try it in your private room...

for thalamus;the Lateral geniculate is for LIGHT(vision);the Medial geniculate is for Music(auditory)

Please say Kuh!kuh!Kuh for palate function(CN12)
La!la!la!for tongue fxn(CN12)
Mi! Mi! mi! for lip fxn (CN 7)
Closing Restriction (Extension restriction)
- when the inferior facet of the superior vertebra cannot glide on the superior facet of the inferior
vertebra. This is painful on extension so the patient tends to flex the trunk (position of comfort).
Opening restriction (Flexion restriction)
- when the inferior facet of the superior vertebra cannot separate from the superior facet of the inferior
vertebra. Position of comfort is extension.
