29
Q

What degree of movement is capable at the sacrum?

A

Between 2 and 4 mm

30
Q

At what age does the sacrum fuse?

31
Q

Why would osteoarthritic changes of the SI joint inhibit movement?

A

Do to the formation of osteophytes (bone spurs)

32

A

1st sacral vertebrae is not fused. It adopts the role of a sixth lumber vertebrae.

33
Q

What is sacralization of the lumber vertebrae?

A

34
Q

What is the function of the transverse ligament of the acetabulum?
Which ligament does it blend with?
What is its function

A

Acts as an extension of the acetabulum labrum.
Ligamentum teres
Produces a foramen (passageway) for arteries, nerves and veins

35
Q

Most fractures of the femur involve which portion of the bone

Head
Neck
Shaft
Condylar parts

36
Q

The function of the acetabular labrum is…

Improve the depth of the socket
Shock absorption
Increase range of movement
Improve the ‘fit’ of the joint

A

Improve the depth of the socket

37
Q

The greater and lesser trochanter of the femur are joined anteriorly by the?

Intertrocanteric line

Q

What is the differance between idiopathic and functional scoliosis?

A

Functional scoliosis is congential

The scoliosis remains via flexion

41
Q

What causes functional scoliosis?

A 
Muscular imbalances
Antalgic posture (deviation)
42
Q

Where would you find the pars articularis?

Q

What is a posterior displacment a vertebrae called?

A

retrolisthesis

45
Q

What factors contribute towards Spondylolisthesis ?

A

Full thickness tear to the illiolumber ligament
Weakness of musculature of the abdomen
Excess adipose tissue causing a pull
Postural adaptations

46
Q

What type of collagen are ligaments made from?

A

Type 1 collagen fibers

Q

Which 4 muscles does the sacrotuberous ligament blend with?

A

Biceps femoris
Piriformis
Multifidus
Gluteus maximus

48
Q

What is trabecula?

A

Present in cancelleous bone
Matrix structure within bone
Enables bone to bend and flex
