Innominates I - Exam V Flashcards
The pelvic girdle is composed of what three structures?
- Sacrum
- Coccyx
- Two hip bones - “innominates”
The hip bones AKA “innominates” can be further subdivided into what three structures?
- Ilium
- Ischium
- Pubis
What structures form the pelvis?
The 2 innominates
The ilium contains what 3 parts?
- Iliac crest
- ASIS
- PSIS
The ischium contains what:
Ischial tuberosity
The pubis contains what?
Pubic tubercle
The hip socket is known as the ____________ and is composed of what?
- Acetabulum
- All three bones
The hip joint AKA the ____________ joint is very mobile, making it a true, “____________”
- Femoro-acetabular
- Ball-and-socket joint
What are the two structures crossed out?
- Linea Aspera
- Adductor Tubercle
landmarks of the femur
The 2 main landmarks of the tibia/fibula are the:
- Fibular head
- Pes Anserine - proximal medial surface
The 4 major hip flexors are the:
- Psoas Major
- Psoas Minor
- Iliacus
- Rectus femoris (part of quads)
The 3 ligaments of the hip joint are the ________femoral joints.
- Ilio-
- Ischio-
- Pubo
The ligaments of the hip joint are important because they can be addressed with:
OMM!
What anatomical structures of the hip joiont contribute to the fibrous portion of the joint capsule?
The ligaments of the hip
Which muscle does mostly knee flexion and is a minor hip flexor muscle, commonly known as the “hacky sack” muscle?
Sartorius
Two minor hip flexor muscles =
1. Sartorius
2. Tensor Fasciae Latae
Which muscle does mostly hip abduction and internal rotation, but is also a minor hip flexor muscle?
Tensor Fasciae Latae
Two minor hip flexor muscles =
1. Sartorius
2. Tensor Fasciae Latae
The major hip extensor is the:
GLUTEUS MAXIMUS!
The 4 muscles of the hamstring are the ____________. Their function is in hip ___________
- Biceps femoris - LH
- Biceps femoris - SH
- Semimembranosus
- Semitendinosus
- Extension
The 5 ADductor muscles are the:
remember mneumonic!
- Gracilis
- Adductor Longus
- Adductor Magnus
- Adductor Brevis
- Pectineus
ADductors fill in the “GAAAP”
Remember they bring the leg toward midline - think in the gym!
The general rule for structural exams is when you are assessing tension in a muscle group, that muscle is moved in the (same/opposite) direction of their action?
OPPOSITE
Think Piriformis muscle - you test it by internal rotation but it’s actual action is external rotation
