Q

SI joint classification

A

Diarthrotic (synovial) and Synarthritic (non-synovial).

  • Aurical surfaces: Synovial joints
  • Tuberosities: Connected by interosseus ligaments by by fibrous synarthrosis (non-synovial)

Q

Anterior SI Ligament

A

Attaches from ant sacrum to anterior ilium.

  • Fiber direction: Lat and inferior
  • Prevents Ilial outflare.
19
Q

Short Post SI ligament

A
  • Short and thick
  • Attachment: PSIS promontory to area of sacral sulcus.
  • Possibly limits all ilial motion on sacrum, mainly anterior rotation of ilium on sacrum.
  • Tender w/ S.I malalignment.
20
Q

Long post S.I ligament

A
  • Inf margin of PSIS to lowr 1/2 of sacrum.
  • Checks ant ilial rotation on sacrum.
  • Check coutnernutation: Post rotation of sacrum on ilium.
21
Q

Nutation

A

Flexion of sacrum

22
Q

Counternutation

A

Sacrum extension, BB

23
Q

Sacrotuberous ligament

A
  • Attaches from Ischial tuberosity to distal 1/3 of sacrum.

- Checks ipsilateral sacral rotation, sacral flexion, and ilial posterior rotation.

24
Q

Sacrospinous Ligament

A

Attaches from inferior lateral angle of anterior sacrum to ischial spine.
- May be stressed in sacral rotations.

25
Q

Pubic Symphysis Joint Classification

A

Synarthroses, Cartilaginous, Symphysis

26
Q

Pubic Symphysis Ligamentous Support

A
  • Sup and inf pubic ligaments

- Check in and sup shear.

27
Q

Sacrococcygeal Joint Classification

A

Synarthrosis. Cartilaginous, IV disc

28
Q

Sacrococcygeal ligamentous support

A

Ant SC ligament

Post SC ligament

29
Q

Lumbosacral Joint classifications

A

Amphiarthrodial

- Facets are synovial and planar

30
Q

Amphiarthrodial

A

Limited motion

31
Q

Ilial movement biomechanics

A

Ant rotation: 5 degrees.
- ASIS moves inferior and anterior.
Post rotation:
- 5 degrees, ASIS moves sup and post.

32
Q

Inflare

A

ASIS moves anterior and medial

33
Q

Outflare

A

ASIS moves posterior and lateral

34
Q

Upslip

A

Superior shear

35
Q

Downslip

A

Inferior shear

36
Q

Sacral flexion movement (nutation)

A
  • base moves anterior

- occurs during exhalation and lumbar extension

37
Q

Sacral extension movement (counternutation)

A
  • Base moves posterior

- Occurs during inhalation and lumbar flexion.
