Lower extremities exam 3- hip Flashcards
normal angle of inclination
125 deg
coxa vara def
decreased angle of inclination
coxa valga
increased angle of inclination
how does the angle of inclination change throughout a human’s lifespan
start w/ high and decreases as weight bearing begins
def angle of inclination
angular relationship of femoral head and femoral shaft of frontal plane (at hip joint_)
angle of torsion def
angular relationship of femoral head and femoral shaft in the transverse plane= amount of twist on the femur
angle of torsion normal degree
15-20
angle of torsion anteversion
greater than 20
angle of torsion retreoversion
less than 15
hip/femoral anteversion degree
greater than 20
what may femoral anteversion lead to
increase of Q angle, internal femoral rotation, squinting patella
hip/femoral retroversion degrees
less than 15
what does femoral retroversion lead to
femoral ER, laterally positioned patella, toe out gait
bones of hip and pelvis
ilium, pubis, ischium, sacrum, coccyx, femur
what 3 bones make up the pubis
superior rami, inferior rami, symphysis
where is the ishium located anatomically
at the fold of the buttcheek where hamstrings insert
innominate bone made up of what 3 hip structures
