Lower Limb 1 - Station 2 Flashcards
what is the acetabular labrum
a ring of fibrocartilage surrounding the acetabulum
where is the acetabular labrum most vulnerable to tear
anterior
3 ligaments of hip joint
iliofemoral, pubofemoral and ischifemoral
which ligament(s) of hip joint can be seen posteriorly
ischiofemoral
which ligament(s) of the hip joint can be seen anteriorly
iliofemoral and pubofemoral
which ligament prevents hyperextension
iliofemoral
which ligament prevents hyperabduction
pubofemoral
flexors of the hip joint
iliacus, psoas major and pectineus (also sartorius a bit)
5 anterior thigh muscles
iliacus, psoas major, pectineus, sartorius and quadriceps femoris
4 muscles of the quadriceps femoris
rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medius, vastus intermedius
which muscles of quadriceps femoris goes straight up the middle on top of the others
rectus femoris
describe the arrangement of the quadriceps femoris
from medial to lateral, vastus medius, intermedius and lateralis and then on top the rectus femoris
chief flexor of the hip
iliopsoas (iliacus and psoas grouped because they share a tendon to the lesser trochanter)
which muscles of anterior thigh attach to lesser trochanter
psoas major and iliacus
innervation of anterior thigh muscles
all femoral nerve EXPECT the psoas major which is lumbar nerves L1, 2, 3
extensors of the hip
gluteus maximus, biceps femoris, semitendonous and semimembranous
order of hamstrings from lateral to medial
biceps femoris (long head) –> semitendinous –> semimembranous
chief extensor of hip joint
gluteus maximus
innervation of gluteus maximus
inferior gluteal nerve
innervation of gluteus medius, minimus and tensor fasciae latae
superior gluteal nerve
5 adductors of the hip
adductor longus, adductor brevis, adductor magnus, obturator externus and gracilis
innervation of hip adductors
all obturator nerve EXCEPT from the hamstring part of adductor magnus which is from the tibial part of the sciatic nerve
