Hip and glutes Flashcards
Regions of lower extremity (7)
Inguinal Hip Thigh Knee Leg Ankle Foot
Location of center of gravity
Midline, just ant to knee and ankle joint
3 bones of pelvis
Ileum, Pubus, Ischium
Point of pelvic bone meeting
Acetabulum
Parts of femur
Head Neck great and lesser trochanter Shaft Medial and lateral condyles Adducter tubercle Gluteal tuberosity Popliteal surface
Bones of hip joint
head of femur and acetabulum of pelvis
Thickening around border of acetabulum
acetabular rim
Movement pairs at hip
flexion, abduction, rotation = circumduction
Def of q-angle
angle between gravity and femur
Name of bowlegged and knock-knee and consequences
Genu varum - break femoral neck
Genu valgus - dislocate hip
Angle formed b/w shaft of femur and neck
inclination (126 degree)
3 femoral ligaments, attachments, limits
- Iliofemoral - AIIS to intertrochanteric line - hyperextension
- pubofemoral - supero-anterior acetbular rim + pubic bone to intertrochanteric line - hyperabduction
- ischiofemoral - post acetabular rim to intertrochanteric line - hyperextension
3 gluteal muscles
maximus, minimus, medius
Attachment, actions, nerve supply, blood supply to glut max
Attach - post illeum + sacrum to illiotibial tract and gluteal tuberosity
Action - hip flexion + lateral rotation
Nerve - Inf gluteal nerve
Blood - sup and inf gluteal art
Attachment, actions, nerve supply, blood supply to glut medius and minimus
Attach - post ilium to greater trochanter
Action - hip abduction + medial rotation
Nerve - sup gluteal nerve
Blood - sup gluteal art
