hip Flashcards
1
Q
what joint type is the hip?
A
- ball and socket
- multiaxial
2
Q
what is pelvis made up of?
A
- two innominate bones
- made of bones fused together; ilium, pubis and ischium
3
Q
what is in-between the pelvis?
A
- sacrum
4
Q
what cartilaginous joint joins bones in pelvis?
A
- pubic synthesis
- sacroiliac joints on either side
5
Q
describe movement allowed at the hip

6
Q

7
Q
what is the ilium? describe the iliac crest- ASIS and PSIS
A
- large part of pelvis at the top

8
Q
where and what is the ischium? which part do you sit on?
A
- at the back
- sit on ischial tuberosity which is at the very bottom and allows muscle attachments e.g. hamstrings via roughened bump
9
Q
where is the pubis and describe it - where can you palpate?
A
- at the front; superior and inferior pubic rami come together to meet in V shape bone
- can palpate pubic tubercle (top at front) ; press down abdominals until you hit firm ridge
10
Q
what is the head of the femur? what is it covered by?
A
- ball part of the joint that sits inside acetabulum
- covered in smooth cartilage
11
Q
what is the dimple on top of head of femur? what does this allow to attach?
A
- fovea
- ligament attaches with blood supply in articular surface
12
Q
what is acetabulum? what is the smooth section called?
A
- socket part of joint
- no smooth cartilage but smooth section in C shape called lunate surface
13
Q
what does more force mean?
A
- greater congruency and percentage of contact
14
Q
what does neck of femur contain?
A
bony landmarks for muscle attachment
- greater trochanter located laterally
- lesser trochanter located medially
15
Q
what is the shaft of the femur? what bone is it?

runs all the way down to patella

16
Q
what attaches to adductor tubercle?
A
- adductor magnus in order to bring leg inwards
17
Q
what are the three differences between male and female pelvic girdle?
A
m= higher iliac crest; f= lower iliac crest
m= pelvic inlet heart shape; f= circular shape
m= pubic rami come together in a V shape; f= angle between rami is wider
18
Q
what does synovial membrane wrap around and what does it secrete?
A
- wraps around synovial joint
- secretes synovial fluid
19
Q
what is the role of synovia fluid ?
A
- lubricate joint so moves smoothly and for nutrition as cartilage doesn’t contain a blood supply
20
Q
where does acetabulum labarum sit ?
A
- sits all the way around the edge of acetabulum
21
Q
what is the role of the acetabulum labarum?
A
- extends the socket to increase stability, congruence and fit between ball and socket
22
Q
where does joint capsule sit and what’s its role?
A
- goes around entirety of hip
- thicker than membrane so provides support and stability
23
Q
how are the fibres aligned in the joint capsule?
A
- straight across at the front from femur to innominate bone
- at back more twisted
24
Q
what happens to the fibres during extension?
A
- close packed
- tightening and wrapping together
- more stable
25
how are the fibres aligned in flexion?
- loosely packed
- less stable
26
what are the three types of fibres?
- longitudinal, oblique and ocular
27
what fibres run between femur and innominate bone?
- longitudinal
28
what fibres run at an angle and around?
- oblique
29
what fibres loop in and out and don't cross? explain what its for
- ocular
- doesn't bridge gap between two bones but provides more support
30
what are extracapsular structures?
- provide support on outside; tightening for extension; loosening for flexion
31
what ligament comes from pubis to femur?
- pubofemoral
32
what ligament comes from ilium to femur?
- iliofemoral
33
what ligament goes from ischium to femur?
- ischiofemoral
34
what is a landmark for nerve and arteries to pass across? where does it run from and what's its role?
- inguinal ligament
- runs from ASIS down to pubic tubercle
- space underneath for substances to pass
35
what are bursas?
- fluid filled sacs that reduce friction where you have soft tissues, muscles, tendons crossing over bones/ joints
36
what is the bursa that allows iliopsoas to pass down and across? what's its role?
- iliopectineal bursa
- helps muscles move more freely in anterior section
- protects iliopsoas tendon
37
what bursa is located next to greater trochanter? what is its role ?
- trochanteric bursa which sits where gluteus muscles insert
- reduces friction
- protects gluteus tendon
38
what are the two types of bursa for gluteus muscles?
- gluteus maximus (bottom)
- gluteus Medius (top)
39
what bridges the gap between lunate surface of acetabulum? what is its role?
- transverse acetabulum ligament
- provides stability
- allows more flexibility > solid bone
40
what is the dimple in head of femur called and what is it connected to?
- fovea
- connected to ligamentum teres
41
what is the role of the fovea?
- stability as holds head in place
- blood supply due to artery inside
42
where do hip flexors sit?
- crossover front so when they shorten they move forwards
43
what is the main nerve for hip flexors and where does it run? what isn't innervated by this?
- femoral nerve; runs down front of thigh
- psoas major supplied by smaller nerves out of spine
44
where do hip extensors fit?
- muscles need to cross over the back
45
what is the main hip extensor nerve?
- sciatic nerve runs down back of leg
- splits into different sections
46
where do hip abductors sit?
- sit laterally to hip so when they shorten they can pull femur to side
47
what innervates alot of the hip abductors?
- superior gluteal nerve
48
where do hip adductors sit?
- sit medially to hip joint so leg pulled back to central
49
what is the main nerve for hip adductors?

- acts as landmark for adductors to insert
51
where do internal rotators sit?
- sit across anterior side of hip
- rotate towards the body
52
where do external rotators sit?
