Q

why is sacrum tilted?

A

in order to transmit force from harsh landing from a jump
- the tilt rotates sacrum anteriorly but sacrospinous + sacrotuberous ligaments resist and prevent upward movement and anterior rotation

Q

pregnancy + pelvic ligaments

A

increase relaxon (a hormone) in latter half of pregnancy allows pubic ligament to relax, increases movement @ pelvic joints esp. sacroiliac + pubic symphysis

lateral/medial condyles
39
Q

intercondylar fossa

40
Q

41
Q

ligaments of the femur

A

iliofemoral
pubofemoral
ischiofemoral

**unwind and wind depending on motion

IPI

42
Q

FCN of femur ligaments

A

stabilize head of femur in acetabulum

43
Q

tibia

A

medial, larger bone in the lower leg

44
Q

tibia articulations

A

(1) femur
(2) talus
(3) fibula

FTF

45
Q

tibia epiphyseal plate closure

A

proximal end (knee) @ 23 years

distal end (ankle) around 18 years

**growth @ knee ends last

46
Q

features of the tibia

A
anterior crest
medial/lateral condyles
intercondylar eminence

47
Q

Osgood-Schlatter disease

A

quadricep tendon pulls away from bone @ tibial tuberosity

  • occurs in children, esp. around puberty, who run run/bend/jump a lot
  • causes pain + swelling
  • disappears after stop growing
48
Q

Osgood-Schlatter disease results in

A

larger tibial tuberosity b/c ligament pulls away which triggers growth

49
Q

treatment for Osgood-Schlatter disease

A

take stress off by wearing band/strap around area to distribute force + tack down band ligament
- prevents ligament from pulling away from tibial tuberosity
