Mixed / Miscellaneous Topics is part of the General Anatomy section of Anatomy. Practise 10 exam-style MCQs for NEET PG, FMGE, INI-CET and NEET SS, each with the correct answer and a detailed explanation.
Mixed / Miscellaneous Topics MCQs range across the radial artery in the snuffbox, the deep inguinal ring in transversalis fascia, the NAVEL order of the femoral triangle, the SITS rotator cuff and the nine flexor tendons of the carpal tunnel — high-yield NEET PG revision.
The radial artery passes through the floor of the anatomical snuffbox over the scaphoid and trapezium. The snuffbox is bounded laterally by abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis, and medially by extensor pollicis longus.
The deep inguinal ring is a defect in the transversalis fascia, located lateral to the inferior epigastric vessels. It transmits the spermatic cord in males and the round ligament in females into the inguinal canal.
The mnemonic NAVEL gives the lateral-to-medial order in the femoral triangle: Nerve, Artery, Vein, Empty space (lymphatics). The triangle is bounded by the sartorius laterally, adductor longus medially, and the inguinal ligament above.
The rotator cuff is formed by SITS: supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis. Teres major is not part of the cuff; it assists latissimus dorsi in arm extension and medial rotation.
Nine flexor tendons pass under the flexor retinaculum with the median nerve: four flexor digitorum superficialis, four flexor digitorum profundus, and one flexor pollicis longus. Compression here causes carpal tunnel syndrome.
In the popliteal fossa the tibial nerve is most superficial, the popliteal vein lies in the middle, and the popliteal artery is deepest, directly on the popliteus muscle and joint capsule.
The inferior vena cava pierces the central tendon of the diaphragm at T8, accompanied by the right phrenic nerve. The esophagus passes at T10 and the aorta at T12.
The foramen ovale transmits the mandibular nerve (V3), the accessory meningeal artery, the lesser petrosal nerve and an emissary vein. The maxillary nerve passes through the foramen rotundum instead.
