hip anatomy Flashcards
used to described the region where the trunk and lower limb meet
“basin”
provides a strong, stable connection between the trunk and the lower extremities.
Pelvis
Function of Pelvis
transmit the weight of the body from the vertebral column to the femurs;
to contain, support and protect the pelvic viscera;
to provide attachment for trunk and lower limb muscles.
Composition of Pelvis
Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
Sacrum and Coccyx
anterior wall of pelvis
Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
forms the back/posterior wall of pelvis
sacrum and coccyx
Pelvis is divided to
False and True Pelvis
superior region and considered part of the abdomen
“greater pelvis”
false pelvis
boundary of false pelvis
behind: lumbar vertebrae
laterally: iliac fossa and iliacus muscle
front: lower part of abdominal wall
related to inferior parts of the pelvic bones, sacrum, coccyx, and has pelvic inlet and outlet bounded
“lesser pelvis”
true pelvis
boundary of true pelvis (pelvic inlet)
posteriorly: sacral promontory
laterally: iliopectineal line
anteriorly: symphysis pubis
boundaries of true pelvic (pelvic outlet)
posteriorly: coccyx
laterally: ischial tuberosity
anteriorly: pubic arch
bony canal through which the child passes during birth
true pelvis
between pelvic inlet and outlet
pelvic cavity
innominate bone/nameless bone
os coxa
Pelvic bone
3 bones making up the Pelvic bone
Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
anterior and superior
Ilium
posterior and inferior
ischium
anterior and inferior
pubis
ligament that connects ischium ilium and pubis
Triradiate ligament
40% of the acetabulum
flat bone, fan shaped
Ilium
40% of acetabulum
posteroinferior part, L shaped
Ischium
20% of acetabulum
anterosuperior fifth of the articular surface
ventral part of hip bone
Pubis
superior border of ilium, comprises of 4 iliac spines
corresponds to L4
origin of tensor fascia latae
Iliac crest
Iliac spines
anterior superior iliac spine (asis)
anterior inferior iliac spine (aiis)
posterior superior iliac spine (psis)
posterior inferior iliac spine (piis0
palpable at the lateral end of inguinal fold
origin of sartorius
attachment of inguinal ligament
ASIS
