What are the 5 structural aspects of the pelvis?
- look at powerpoint to practice with diagram
- ilium
- sacrum
- coccyx (tail bone)
- pubis
- ischium
What 2 structural parts of the pelvis are also part of the spine?
- sacrum
- coccyx
What movements occur at the hip?
- flexion
- extension
- abduction
- adduction
What movements occur at the pelvis?
- anterior pelvic rotation
- posterior pelvic rotation
What are the 3 joints in the hip and pelvis?
- pubic symphysis
- sacroiliac
- femoroacetabular
What type of joint is the pubic symphysis?
cartilaginous
What are the 2 anterior ligaments in the hip?
- iliofemoral
- pubo-femoral
What is the posterior ligament in the hip?
ischiofemoral
List the muscles that carry out flexion in the hip
- rectus femoris
- lliopsoas
- sartorius
- pectineus
- TFL (tensor fascia lata)
List the muscles that carry out extension in the hip
- gluteus maximus
- bicep femoris (LH)
- semimembranosus
- semitendinosus
List the muscles that carry out abduction in the hip
- gluteus minimus
- gluteus medius
- TFL (tensor fascia lata)
List the muscles that carry out adduction in the hip
- adductors (longus, magnus, brevis)
- pectineus
- gracilis
What is the injury on the hip we need to know?
bursitis of the hip (trochanteric)
What is the mechanism of trochanteric bursitis?
- direct blow
- overuse
What is the management for trochanteric bursitis?
- RICE
- NSAIDs
- joint injection (cortisol)
- aspiration of the affected bursa
What is the presentation of trochanteric bursitis?
- local pain when leg is simultaneously adducted
- intense pain, tenderness and swelling over the superior lateral aspect of the thigh
What are the complications of trochanteric bursitis?
- reinjury
- loose fragments of tissue caught within the joint
What is the origin of the pectineus?
pectineal line (pubis)
What is the insertion of the pectineus
pectineal line of femur
What is the origin of the gracillis?
ramus of the pubis
What is the insertion of the gracillis?
anteromedial tibia (below condyle)
What is the origin of the TFL?
anterior iliac crest
What is the insertion of the TFL?
illiotibial tract (onto tibial condyle)
What is the origin of the sartorius?
- ASIS
