Injuries of the Hip Thigh and Groin Flashcards
what is a plica?
piece of fibrous tissue extending from joint capsule that is supposed to be absorbed during growth and development that sometimes gets left over and interferes with the joint
Where does the sartorius originate?
ASIS
Where does the rectus femoris originate?
AIIS
Where do hamstrings originate?
Ischial tuberosity
What muscles are in the hamstrings?
Biceps femoris (long and short), semitenidnosus, and semimembranosus
Where do external obliques originate?
outer surfaces of the ribs
Where do external obliques insert?
Anterior 1/2 of iliac crest and medially on linea alba
what is the action of the external obliques?
trunk rotation, flexion, side bending, and compressing abdominal viscera
What muscles are the hip flexors?
PP SIR
Psoas major/minor
Pectineus
Sartorius
Iliacus
Rectus femoris
all assisted by tensor fascia latae
what is special about the rectus femoris?
It is the only quad muscle that does hip flexion
What are the 4 quadriceps muscles?
Rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus intermedius, and vastus medialis
what are the hip adductors?
PAAAG
Pectineus
Adductor longus
Adductor brevis
Adductor magnus
Gracilis
Where does sartorius originate?
ASIS
Where does sartorius insert?
Medial proximal tibia as it is part of pes anserine group
What is the acetabular labrum?
fibrous cartilage that rims acetabulum and deepens the socket while increasing the stablity of the joint.
Has limited blood supply
What is a hip pointer injury?
A contusion of the iliac crest (specifically the periosteum that has alot of sensory nerves)/ Often results in external obliques and tensor fascia latae being affected as well as atheletes report pain with forced exhalation and bowel movements (function of external obliques)
What is the MOI of a hip pointer injury
Blunt trauma to the iliac crest
What are S and S with Hip pointer injury?
pain with trunk flexion, rotation, side bending/hip flexion, brusing and swelling over iliac crest, and muscle spasms
What is the acute management for a hip pointer injury
PIER (with pressure pad if tolerated) and lympth drainage to settle any spasms
What is RTP post hip pointer injury
donut pad with cover - possibly hip flexor wrap if hip flexion is affected
What is MOI for acetabular labral tear?
Acute plant and twist or hyperabduction (ie splits), overuse degeneration
What are S and S for acetabular labral tears?
pain, clicking/catching in hip or groin, decreased hip ROM< audible pop/sensation at time of injury, “C” sign descriptor of pain
what is the special test for an acetabular labral tear?
Scouring test
What is acute managment for acetabular labral tear?
ice, rest, pain managment
what are next steps in injury rehab of acetabular labral tear?
focusing on correct mechanics (ie building stable base - core and hip stability) and increasing proprioception. Refer to surgery in pain and mobility treatment isn’t effective
What does a scouring test test for?
hip labrum tears, capsulitis, oseteochondral defects (ie bone and cartilage defects), acetabular defects, osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, and femoral acetabular inpingement syndrome`
what is capsilitis
inflammation of capsule leading to scar tissue
