pelvis eval

Question 1

AP

pelvis

eval

Answer 1

*must see 1/3 of femoral shaft
*greater trochanter in profile
*lesser trochanter tucked away

no rotation indicated by symmetrical
* obturator foramen
*ilia
*ischial spines

Note
*correct rotation of the leg will leave femoral neck parallel to the board- if not then it would superimposed on itself

Question 2

AP oblique

hip

EVAL

Answer 2

*greater trochanter super imposed on the body (NOT the neck)
*lesser trochanter on medial side

NOTE: too much rotation causes greater trochanter to get superimposed with the neck

Question 3

AP

hip

eval

Answer 3

*must see 1/3 of femoral shaft
*greater trochanter in profile
*lesser trochanter tucked away

Note
*correct rotation of the leg will leave femoral neck parallel to the board- if not then it would superimposed on itself

Question 4

Lauenstein Method

eval

Answer 4

• Femoral neck overlapped by greater trochanter

Question 5

Danelius-Miller Method

EVAL

Answer 5

*greater trochanter super imposed on the body (NOT the neck)
*lesser trochanter on posterior surface of femur
*ischial tuberosity seen below the femoral head and neck

Question 6

Clements-Nakayama vs Danelius-Miller

Answer 6

Daniels’s-Miller- done when patient still has movement on one leg

Clements-Nakayama- done when patient
* has bilateral fractures
*bilaterial arthroplasty
*no movement on unaffected leg

Question 7

Clements-Nakayama

eval

Answer 7

*greater trochanter super imposed on the body (NOT the neck)
*lesser trochanter on posterior surface of femur
*ischial tuberosity seen below the femoral head and neck
