Mark with a surface marking pen the projected course of the Sciatic Nerve from the Greater Sciatic foramen under the Gluteus Maximus to the apex of the Popliteal fossa on a model in the Anatomical position with a time limit of two minutes.
Objective No 157 - Criteria to be demonstrated. 1. Surface mark the Posterior Superior Iliac Spine. (Objective No 86) 2. Surface mark the position of the Ischial Tuberosity (Objective No 88) 3. Surface mark the position of the Greater Trochanter (Objective No 87) 4. Draw a vertical line connecting the Posterior Superior Iliac Spine and the Ischial Tuberosity. 5. Mark the mid-point of the vertical line and a point just lateral to the mid-point. 6. Draw a horizontal line from the Ischial Tuberosity to the Greater Trochanter. 7. Mark the mid-point of the horizontal line and a point just medial to the mid-point. 8. Join lateral point in step 5 to the medial point in step 7 with a line convex gently towards the lateral aspect. 9. Continue to draw the line in a vertical direction down towards the apex of the Popliteal Fossa. 10. The line drawn represents the course of the Sciatic nerve which splits into the Common Peroneal and Tibial nerve during its descent to the Popliteal Fossa.
