19. 19Fill in the blanks to describe the popliteus muscle.
    The popliteus muscle originates from the l[blank_start]ateral[blank_end] c[blank_start]ondyle[blank_end] of the femur and the [blank_start]posterior[blank_end] horn of the [blank_start]lateral[blank_end] meniscus. It inserts at the tibia just proximal to the [blank_start]soleal[blank_end] line. The tendon of the popliteus gains access to the femur through the gap between the l[blank_start]ateral[blank_end] c[blank_start]ollateral[blank_end] ligament and the l[blank_start]ateral[blank_end] m[blank_start]eniscus[blank_end]. The popliteus muscle is involved in f[blank_start]lexion[blank_end] and i[blank_start]nternal rotation[blank_end] to help unlock the knee when walking.

26. 26Fill in the blanks below to describe the drawer test.
    The drawer test is used to test the integrity of the [blank_start]cruciate ligaments[blank_end]. The patient should be in a [blank_start]supine[blank_end] position with [blank_start]45 degree[blank_end] hip flexion and [blank_start]90 degree[blank_end] knee flexion accompanied by stabilisation of the [blank_start]foot[blank_end]. The examiner should grasp the leg [blank_start]below[blank_end] the tibial plateau and attempt to translate the lower leg [blank_start]anteriorly[blank_end]. Excessive anterior translation relative to the contralateral side shows a loss of integrity in the anterior cruciate ligament.
