Hip/pelvis Flashcards
hip articulation is formed by what
femural heal and acetabulum
hip transmits what types of loads
tensile and compressive
what type of joint is the hip?
ball and socket
what is another name for ball and socket
spheriodal
how many planes of movement does the his go through
3- sagittal, frontal, transvers
sagittal plane of hip movement
flexion extension around transverse axis
frontal plane of hip movement
abduction and adduction around ant/post axis
transverse plane of hip movement
internal/external rotation around vertical axis
os coxa is made up of
ilium, pubis, ischium
ilium forms which portion of os coxa
superior 2/5
ischium forms which portion os coxa
posterior 2/5 acetabulum and ramus
ischium + ramus=
ischial tuberosity
pubis for which portion os coxa
anterior 1/5 acetabulus.
smallest bone of os coxa
pubis
what are the parts of the pubis bone
body, inf and sup rami
by what age is acetabular development complete?
age 8
what of the acetabulum changes at puberty?
acetabular depth
why does the acetabulum increase depth?
development of three secondary ossification centers
which way is the acetabulum angled
lateral, inf, ant
what increases joint stability of the acetabulum?
acetabular rim–> labrum
what lines the acetabulum
hyaline cartilage (articular cartilage)
what part of the acetabulum is not covered with cartilage?
fovea capitis
what three joints make up the pelvic girdle
acetabulofemoral
sacroiliac
pubic symphysis
what is the most stable joint in the body
acetabulofemoral
what is pelvic obliquity
pelvic leveling
excess lordosis in lumbar spine possibly what
weak abs
what tests confirm weak abdominals?
Milgrams test
if milgrams does not confirm weak abs what other tests?
could be space occupying lesion or disc path
valsalva
bechterew
anterior innominate- mazion- advancement sign
SLR
what is an iliac contusion
contusion/avulsion to site of quadratus lumborum or abdominal muscles from the iliac crests. VERY painful. disabling is periosteum is involved
what is an avulsion
pulling of the tendon from the periosteum
what will elicit pain in iliac contusion
lateral flexing away from side of inj and abduction when laying on side
etiology of iliac contusion
trauma- football, lax, hockey
pubic tubercles should be level with what in the inspection
grater trochanters
what could heal wrong causing misalignment?
congenital hip dislocations/ fracture
superior/ inferior pubic rami fractures with separation/ fracture of contralateral SI joint
Bucket handle fracture
separation of the pubic symphysis and both SI joints
sprung pelvis
bilateral superior pubic rami and ischiopubic fracture
straddle fracture
MOI landing hard on butt, falling from a height, horseback riding
straddle fracture
MOI bad infection, appendicitis, trauma, buildup of pressure
sprung pelvis
most common areas of pelvis for avulsion fractures
ASIS, AIIS, ischial tub
avulsion from iliac crest is usually
abdominal muscles
avulsion from ASIS
sartorius
avulsion from AIIS
rectus femoris
avulsion from lesser trochanter
iliopsoas
avulsion from pubic symphysis
adductor group
avulsion from ischial tub
hamstrings
avulsion from greater trochanter
gluteal muscles
strongest and longest bone in the body
femur
portion not covered in smooth layer of cartilage
fovea capitis, ligamentum teres
angle between femoral shaft and neck
inclination angle
average inclination angle
120-130 degrees
how does the inclination angle change with body type
taller person more valgus larger angle
shorter person more varus smaller angle
MOI for femoral head dislocation
dashboard injury
force to knee if hip is adducted may cause
posterior hip dislocation
muscles that insert into greater trochanter
adductor brevis gemelli (inf/sup) gluteus medius gluteus minimus obturator internus piriformis
muscles that insert into lesser trochanter
iliacus
pectineus
psoas major
how is the lesser trochanter created?
pulling of the iliopsoas
what type of bone is in the femoral neck?
trabecular bone
what is it designed to withstand?
high loads
where is the lesser trochanter located
posterior medial junction of the neck and shaft of femur
angle that the femoral neck makes with the acetabulum
angle of anteversion
what is normal anteversion
8-15 degrees
angle between femoral neck and transcondylar axis is greater than 15 degrees
medial femoral torsion
what type of gait is associated with medial femoral torsion
toe in
increased femoral head torsion result in
OA dysplasia or acetabulum susceptibility to anterior femoral dislocation knee joint misalignment patellar dislocations excessive lumbar lordosis external rotation of tibia pronation of feet
