Pelvic Girdle and Hip Bones Flashcards
Name 3 joints of the Pelvis
Acetabularfemoral joint, Sacroiliac joint, Pubic symphyses
What does ASIS and AIIS stand for and which muscles attach?
Anterior Superior Iliac Spine and Anterior Inferior Iliac Spine.
Hip flexors-
Rectus Femoris (AIIS) , Sartorius (ASIS) , TFL (ASIS)
What type of joint is the SacroIliac Joint and what are the functions of it?
Sliding Joint.
Allows shock absorption, transmission of force up the spine, ant and post. pelvic rotation
What bones are involved in the lumbosacral joint?
L5 vertebra and sacrum.
What type of joint is the Pubic Symphyses and what are the functions of it?
Amphiarthrosis- slightly moveable.
Allows shock absorption and freedom of gliding as less torsion on pelvis halves so can move independently
Name the primary hip flexors
Rectus Femoris, Iliopsoas, Sartorius, Tensor Fascia Latae, Pectineus
Name the primary hip extensors
Gluteus Maximus, hamstrings
Where does the Iliacus originate?
Iliac fossa. off ilium, inner upper surface
Where does the psoas originate?
T12-L5 and sacrum. note- att T12 side of vertabral body to L5. Att on transverse process of Lumbar region.
Insertion of Iliopsoas muscle
Lesser Trochanter of femur
Origin of Rectus Femoris
AIIS anterior inferior iliac spine
Insertion of R Femoris
Tibial Tuberosity
Origin of Sartorius
ASIS upper iliac spine
Insertion of Sartorius
Anteromedial Tibia
Origin of TFL
ASIS and assoc with IT band
Insertion of TFL
IT band onto lateral tibial condyle
What is the function of the Iliotibial band?
Transmit force of TFL
Origin and insertion points of the Pectineus
O: Pubis
I: Medial Femur
Where does the Gluteus Maximus originate?
Posterior quarter of Iliac crest, posterior coccyx and sacrum near ilium, fascia of lumbar area
Insertion of G.Max
Oblique ridge lateral greater trochanter and IT band
What movement does the LoP of G.Max allow?
Hip extension- moves femur back and up
External rotation at hip.
Name the muscles that make up the hamstrings
Biceps Femoris
Semitendinosus
Smeimembranous
