44
Q

What can happen with an injury to the Superior Gluteal Nerve?

A

Positive Trendelenburg Test

45
Q

What can cause a Positive Trendelenburg Test?

A

Femoral neck fractures, dislocated hip joint

Ex. Left side drop, right side damage

Pt lifts leg, contralateral muscles can’t keep pelvis level, so there is a drop
Can be compensated for by shifting the weight of trunk to nerve damaged side

46
Q

What is Sacrospinous Fixation (Illeococcygeus suspension)?

A

Procedure where the apex of vagina is sutured to the sacrospinous ligament to stop the uterus from prolapsing
