You said INSERTION of Popliteus is on Lateral surface of later condyle of femur and ORIGIN is on the posterior surface of tibia. BUT I THINK IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND. Origin is proximal. Insertion is more distal.

Origin and insertion of popliteus muscle has been swapped around. So origin is the lateral aspect of the lateral condyle and the insertion is the posterior surface of the proximal tibia. Otherwise, amazing video, thank you so much!

Hello, thank you!
Sorry for the lack of videos lately - have been away from home and extremely busy. Just invested in a new laptop so should be able to produce a couple of tutorials here and there, but will be back in full swing by mid-July.
I have just got a few more musculoskeletal tutorials to do (as those seem to be in highest demand!) but I fully intend to get some up on the abdominal and thoracic viscera as soon as I can! So much to cover, not enough time! :)

Hey. Isn't the origin and insertion of popliteus the other way round? I mean, originates from the lateral condyle and inserted on the posterior surface of femur? Please clear this doubt.

Studying Anatomy is incomplete without your tutorials. A BIG THANKS!!!

[@Stuntgirl087]

Your tutorials are amazing & have helped me no end in learning anatomy. Thank you so much!

This tutorial is helpful, though I must admit, I personally would have found it even better if the muscles functions were demonstrated. Although I understood what you meant about moving the foot, I am the type of learner that would need a demonstration to rationalize it and thus be able to learn it. However, I do understand and respect the possibility that you may not be able to do anything but hide and show the muscles on a static figure for the sake of learning for medical purposes. Even so, I still wanted to share my opinion, just in case the option is available in future tutorials. Thank you!

This is a brilliant tutorial for the beginners as each and every muscle is shown clearly and help us as a disector.It will be very helpful if you give the the courses of arteries ,veins and nerves distribution in your 3D tutorials.Keep it up.

Excellent revision, wish it was there in our med school days!If only you could add muscle action through animation, plantar flex ion etc.
