  • Muscle compartments of the arm, forearm, hand, thigh, leg and foot
  • Fascial layers
  • Origin, insertion, action and innervation of muscles
  • Blood vessels (starting from the brachial/femoral arteries) deep and superficial vessels of the limbs
  • Nerves – innervating the limbs including the cutaneous branches (but the origin of the trunks of the brachial plexus will NOT form part of the midterm)

  • Pelvis, bony components and ligaments together with the pelvic diameters

 

COURSE OF THE MIDTERM
 This is an oral examination to prove knowledge on the cadaver specimen, however, students will be required to answer relevant theoretical questions too.

 

ABSENCE

 Students staying away from the midterm should attend on one of the two retake days to gain acceptance of the semester.  Retakes are held on week 8 or week 14.
