Q

Describe the reverse keystone effect.

A

The reverse keystone effect is the effect where the sacrum is held into the ilium via interosseous ligaments and as a result the ilium bones are drawn together and hold the sacrum in place.

21
Q

What kind of joint is the pubic symphysis?

A

Secondary cartilaginous joint

22
Q

What kind of movement can the pubic symphysis perform?

A

Small gliding movements

23
Q

What is the sexual dimorphism of the pubic symphysis?

A

Females have a wider pubic symphysis?

24
Q

What kind of joint is the sacrococcygeal joint?

A

secondary cartilaginous

25
Q

What ligaments hold the sacrococcygeal joint together?

A

Anterior and posterior sacrococcygeal ligaments

26
Q

What is the difference between spondylolysis and spondylolythesis?

A

Spondylolythesis is the breakage of both pars interarticulari. Spondylolysis is the breakage of one pars interarticularis.

27
Q

How does the pelvis typically get broken?

A

car accidents

28
Q

What are the margins of the hip joint capsule?

A

acetabular labrum
intertrochanteric line
above intertrochanteric crest

29
Q

Is the femoral neck intracapsular or extracapsular?

A

intracapsular with inferior part of the neck exposed.

30
Q

Is the ligamentum teres covered by the synovial membrane?

A

No

31
Q

What ligaments hold the hip joint together? where do they insert?

A

Ilio, ischio, and pubo femoral ligaments. Ilio inserts on intertrochanteric line, ischio inserts onto greater trochanter, pubo inserts near iliofemoral ligament and also merges with it iliofemoral ligament.

32
Q

What position are all 3 hip joint ligaments tightest in?

A

hip internal rotation and extension

33
Q

What is the function of each ligament in the hip joint?

A

They function to prevent hyperextension and abduction

34
Q

What muscles stabilize the hip joint?

A

Psoas muscles anteriorly
Rectus femoris laterally
6 external rotators posteriorly

35
Q

What bursae does the hip joint contain and where are they located?

A

Psoas bursa is found superficial to the hip joint ligaments (inferior to the origin of the iliofemoral ligament) and deep to the psoas tendons.
Trochanteric bursa found where gluteus medius and minimus insert.

36
Q

What is the function of ligamentum teres?

A

Stabilizes hip joint and contains the obdurator artery which is an important blood supply in children and infants during young age.

37
Q

Is the fat pad of the acetabular fossa intracapsular or extracapsular. Is it intra or extra synovial?

A

Fat pad is intracapsular and extrasynovial.

38
Q

What is the most stable position for the hip joint?

A

Slight hip extension, abduction and internal rotation.

39
Q

What structures are endangered in a posterior dislocation?

A

sciatic nerve and blood vessels.

40
Q

What typically causes congenital dislocation?

A

baby swaddled too tightly causing too much adduction and dislocation.

41
Q

Where is the transverse acetabular ligament found?

A

In the deficiency of the acetabulum. (acetabular notch)

42
Q

What are the rotator cuff muscles?

A
Superior gemellus
Inferior gemellus
obturator internus
piriformis
Quadratus femoris
obturator externis
43
Q

What are the muscles of the adductor compartment?

A

adductor longus, brevis, and magnus.

gracilis

44
Q

What nerve innervates gluteus medius and minimus?

A

superior gluteal nerve

45
Q

Where do the gluteus medius and minimus originate and insert?

A

From the ilium and insert onto the greater trochanter (anterior surface)

46
Q

What actions do the gluteal muscles have on the thigh?

A

Gluteus medius and minimus abduct the thigh and internally rotate the thigh.
Gluteus maximus is involved in (power extensions)

47
Q

Hip pain may be referred to where?

A

Knee

48
Q

What is the blood supply of the femoral neck and head?

A

The profunda femoris gives off a medial and lateral branch around the femoral head and neck to act as anastomoses.
Ascending branch supplies head and neck of femur.
Descending branch supplies the shaft.

49
Q

What different roles does the obturator artery play in adults and in children?

A

In adults it goes to the capsule.

In children it supplies head of femur through ligamentum teres.

50
Q

What part of the ilium do the gluteus medius and minimus originate from?

A

The gluteal lines

51
Q

Where do hamstring muscles typically originate from?

A

The ischial tuberosity.

52
Q

Where does biceps femoris insert onto?

A

Fibular head
