Pelvic Region

QuestionAnswer
Rectus Femoris o: anterior inferior iliac spine of the coxal bone (AIIS) i: base of patella - tibial tuberosity (via infrapatellar tendon)
Rectus Femoris main actions (2) - hip flexion (thigh) - pelvic anteversion
Sartorius o: anterior superior iliac spine of the coxal bone (ASIS) i: medial epicondyle of the tibia
Sartorius main actions (3) - hip flexion (thigh) - external hip rotation - pelvic anteversion
Gluteus Maximus o: posterior gluteal line of the gluteal fossa of the coxal bone - sacrum i: superior portion of the linea aspera of the femur - superior 1/3 of the iliotibial tract
Gluteus Maximus main actions (4) - hip extension - external hip rotation - pelvic retroversion - hip abduction
Gluteus Medius o: gluteal fossa between anterior and posterior gluteal line of coxal bone i: greater trochanter of femur
Gluteus Medius main action hip abduction
Biceps Femoris o: long head- ishial tuberosity of coxal bone, short head- inferior portion of linea aspera of femur i: head of the fibula, lateral epicondyle of tibia
Biceps Femoris main actions (2) hip extension, pelvic retroversion
Semitendinosus o: ishial tuberosity of coxal bone i: proximal segment of antero-medial aspect (medial condyle)
Semitendinosus main actions (2) hip extension, pelvic retroversion
Semimembranosus o: ishial tuberosity of coxal bone i: proximal segment of postero-medial groove
Semimembranosus main actions (2) hip extension, pelvic retroversion
Iliotibial Tract o: medial portion of iliac crest of coxal bone i: head of fibula, lateral epicondyle of tibia
what is the iliotibial tract a tight string of connective tissue that runs the length of the lateral segment of the thigh
Tensor Faciae Latae o: anterior portion of iliac crest of coxal bone i: superior 1/3 of the iliotibial tract
Tensor Faciae Latae main actions (4) hip flexion, hip abduction, internal hip rotation, pelvic anteversion
Adductor Gracilis o: ishio-pubic segment of coxal bone i: linea aspera of femur, medial epicondyle of tibia
name the 3 hamstrings biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus
what origin do the 3 hamstrings share ishial tuberosity of the coxal bone
what two bones make up the functional group of the hip the femoral head and the coxal bone
what bones make up the pelvis 2 coxal bones and the sacrum
what bones make up the coxal ilium, ishium, pubis
what are the possible actions at the coxofemoral joint flexion and extension, abduction and adduction, internal and external rotation
what are the possible actions at the pelvis elevation and depression, anteversion and retroversion
which 3 muscles share the linea aspera short head of the biceps femoris (inferior portion,as origin), adductor gracilis (insertion), gluteus maximus (superior portion, as insertion)
which 2 muscles share the insertion of superior 1/3 of the iliotibial tract tensor fasciae latae, gluteus maximus
