Unit 2-Lower Ext Pt 2

QuestionAnswer
This serves as the base for the trunk and a girdle for the sttachment of the lower limbs: Pelvis
The pelvis consists of: 2 hip bones, sacrum & coccyx
The pelvic girdle consists of: The hip bones only
The hip bone is also referred to as: Os Coxae or Innominate bone
The hip bone consists of three parts: Ilium, Ischium & Pubis
The Ilium, Ischium & Pubis form together to make what: Acetabulum
The cup-shaped socket that receives the head of the femur is: Acetabulum
The ilium are seperated by ________ in children, but ______ together in adulthood Cartilage, Fuse
The hip bone is divided further into 2 distinct areas: Iliopubic column & ilioischial column
The Iliopubic & ilioischial columns are used to identify what: Fractures around the acetabulum
The ilium consists of a _______ and a broad curved portion called the __________: Body, Ala
The body of the ilium forms approx. 2/5ths of the ___________ ________: Acetabulum superiorly
This projects superiorly from the body of the ilium to for the prominence of the hip: Ala
The Ala has three borders: Anterior, Superior & Posterior
The anterior & posterior borders of the ilium present four prominent projections: Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS) Anterior Inferior Iliac Spine Posterior Superior Iliac Spine Posterior Inferior Iliac Spine
The _____ is commonly used in hip radiographs as a reference point: ASIS
The superior margin extending from the ASIS to the posterior superior iliac spine is called: Iliac Crest
The medial surface of the wing (Ala) contains: Iliac fossa
This seperated by the body of the hip bone by a smooth arc-shaped ridge and forms a portion of the circumference of the pelvic brimcalled: Arcuate line
Abnormal twisting of the foot, usually inward and downward: Congenital club foot
Avulsion fracture of the medial malleolus with loss of ankle mortise: Pott fracture
Avulsion fracture of the base of the fifth metatarsal: Jones fracture
Hereditary form of arthritis in which uric acid is deposited in the joints: Gout
Incomplete seperation or avulsion of the tibial tuberosity: Osgood-Schlatter disease
Softening of the bones owing to Vitamin-D deficiency: Rickets (Osteomalacia)
Chronic metabolic disease of bone marked by weakened, deformed and thickened bone that fractures easily: Paget disease
Malignant tumor of bone arising in the medullary tissue: Ewing sarcoma
Rheumatoid arthritis variant involving the SI joints and spine: Ankylosing spondylitis
Flattening of the femoral head owing to vascular interruption: Legg-Calve-Perthes
Transfer of cancerous lesion from one area to another: Metastases
Increased density of atypically soft tissue: Osteopetrosis
Loss of bone density: Osteoporosis
Thick, soft bone marked by bowing and fractures: Paget disease
The arcuate line passes ________, ______, and ________ to its junction with the pubis: Obliquely, inferiorly & medially
The large, rough surface located on the inferior and posterior portions of the ilium os: Auricular surface
This surface of the ilium articulates with the scarum: Auricular surface
The ilium curves inward below the auricular surface to form what: Greater sciatic notch
The pubis consists of a _______, the _________ _________ and the _________ _______: Body, Superior ramus and inferior ramus
This forms approximately 1/5th of the acetabulum anteriorly: Pubis
The _______ ______ projects inferiorly and medially from the acetabulum to the midline of the body: Superior ramus
The lower prong of the pubis is called: Inferior ramus
The ischiu, consists of a body and the ______ _______: Ischial ramus
The body of the ________ forms approximately 2/5ths of the acetabulum posteriorly: Ischium
The ischium projects posteriorly and inferiorly from the acetabulum to form an expanded portion called: Ischial tuberosity
The posterior union of the pubis and ischial rami forms the: Obturator foramen
The superoposterior border of the body of the ischium has a prominent projection called: Ischial Spine
The indention that sits just below the ischial spine is: Lesser sciatic notch
The longest, strongest and heaviest bone in the body is: Femur
The proximal end of the femur consists of: Head, neck and Greater & Lesser trochanters
The smallest depression located at the head of the femur is called: Fovea capitas
The fovea capitas serves what purpose: Attachment to the ligaments
The greater trochanter is at the _________ part of the femoral body: Superolateral
The lesser trochanter is at the ________ part of the femoral body: Posteromedial
The prominent ridge between the trochanters is: Intertrochanteric crest
The less prominent ridge connecting the trochanters is the: Intertrochanteric line
Two common sites of fracture seen in elderly patients of the proximal femur are: Femoral neck & Intertrochanteric crest
In the average adult, the neck of the femur projects ________ from the body at an angle of ____ to _____: anteriorly, 15-20 degrees
The longitudinal plane of the femur is angled about ______ degrees from vertical: 10 degrees
The articulation between the acetabulum and the femoral head is a _________ _______ _____ ________ joint: Synovial ball-and-socket
The pubic symphysis is a ____________ ________ joint: Cartilaginous symphysis
The SI joint are _______ ________ joints: Synovial irregular
The ________ pelvis is lighter in structure than the _________ pelvis: Female, male
Which gender demonstrates a wider more shallow pelvis with a larger more oval shaped inlet: Female
The pelvis is divided into two planes by the _______: Brim
The region of the pelvis located above (superior) to the brim is known as: The Greater or False pelvis
The region of the pelvis located below (inferoir) to the brim is known as: The Lesser or True pelvis
The inferior aperture or ________ of the pelvis is an imaginary line running from which structures: Outlet, runs from the tip of the coccyx to the inferior margin of the pubic symphysis
The superior aperture or ________ of the pelvis is an imaginary line running from which structures: Inlet, runs from the sacral promontory to the superior margin of the pibic symphysis
The region between the inlet and outlet of the pelvis is known as the: Pelvic cavity
What makes up the pelvis: The hip bones, Sacrum, Coccyx and the pelvic girdle
What makes up the Hip bone: Ilium, Pubis, Ischium & Acetabulum
What makes up the Ilium: Body, wing, superior spine, inferior spine, ASIS, Anterior inferior iliac spine, Posterior superior iliac spine, Posterior inferior iliac spine, Iliac crest, Iliac fossa, Arcuate line, Aricular surface, Greater sciatic notch
What makes up the pubis: Body, superior ramus, inferior ramus, iliopubic column
What makes up the Ischium: Body, Ischial ramus, ischial tuberosity, Obturator foramen, ischial spine, lesser sciatic notch, ilioischial column
What makes up the proximal femor: Head, neck, body, fovea capitas, greater trochanter, lesser trochanter, intertrochanteric crest and intertrochanteric line
