Pelvis Unit 7
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Pelvimetry | Procedure gives 2 way measurement to 3 parts of true pelvis |
elongation of femoral necks | determines sufficient internal rotation of leg to acheive true pelvis |
AP Pelvis good positioning | measure from ASIS to table on both sides |
innominate or os coxae | hip bone |
sonography/ultrasound | replaced pelvimetry |
extends between pubic symphesis and coccyx | transverse dimension of outlet |
ala | wing of ilium |
3 divisions between true pelvis | inlet, outlet, pelvic cavity |
SI Joints | synovial amphiarthrodial |
symphesis pubis | amphiarthrodial |
hip | diarthrodic |
two structures that form hip joint | acetabulum and femoral head |
largest foramen in body | obturator |
ischial tuberosity | used to correctly place translateral hip radiograph on viewbox |
CR for AP Pelvis | H/T halfway between ASIS and pubic symphesis S/S mid sag |
CR for unilateral AP HIp | H/T diagonal line between ASIS and pubic symphesis, bisect, then 2.5' belowGreater trochanter profiled |
CR for translateral Hip | same as unilateral AP Hip, aim for christmas |
Position for frog lateral | flex knee, abduct hip |
CR for pelvimetry with Colcher-Sussman method | perpendicular to mid IR 1.5' superior to pubic symphesis |
Obturator foramen boundaries | Pubis and ischium |
Most inferior structure of pelvis | Ischial tuberosity |
Most inferior and anterior structure of pelvis | pubic symphesis |
female pelvis | lighter, wider and shallower than males; inlet larger and more oval |
female sacrum | wider and curves more sharplay posterior |
angle of neck of femur | 125 degrees superior to shaft |
femur neck in anatomical position | 15-20 degrees anteriorly |
3 joints of hip | sacroiliac, hip joint, symphesis pubis |
greater trochanter on level of | pubic symphesis |
top of greater trochanter on level of | hip joint |
Angles of proximal femur | neck to shaft 125 degrees; longitudinal 10; anterior 15-20 |
how many bones make up the pelvis | 4; 2 hip bones, 1 sacrum, 1 coccyx |
pelvic girdle | hip bones |
3 divisions of hip | Ilium, ischium, pubis |
Position of ilium | superior |
position of ischium | posterior |
position of pubis | anterior |
acetabulum | made up of ilium 2/5, ischium 2/5 and pubis 1/5 |
body of ilium | wing or ala |
obturator foramen | where iscium and pubic bone come together |
True pelvis | below brim, birth canal |
false pelvis | above brim, has muscles that hold up organs |
pelvimetry | xray measures birth canal |
AP Pelvis | CR midway between ASIS and symphesis pubisLeg internally rotated 15-20 degrees |
AP Frog Pelvis (AP Oblique;modified cleaves) | CR 2" above smphesis pubis (same as midway between ASIS and symphesis pubis) |
AP Hip | 10x12 CR: diagonal line between symhesis pubis, bisect, then 2.5" below line;rotate leg internally 15-20 degrees |
XTL technique | do AP Pelvis first, double mAs and add 10 kVp |
Cone | add 5-8 kVp |
AP Axial Sacrum CR | 15 degrees cephalic (20 on females) 2" superior to pubic symphesis |
AP Axial Sacrum position | supine, knees flexed, shield male patient |
AP Axial Coccyx CR | 10 degrees caudal 2" superior to pubic symphesis |
AP Axial Coccyx Position | 10x12 Patient supine, knees flexed, shield male, use cone or collimate well |
SI Joints AP Axial CR | 30 degrees males, 35 females cephalic, 1.5" superior to pubic symphesis |
SI Joints Obliques CR | 1" medial to elevated ASIS |
SI Joints Oblique position | Patient oblique 25-30 degrees, must mark SI in profile |
SI oblique tips | mark SI in profile, must do both side for comparison |
SI oblique RPO,LPO | RPO shows left SI, LPO shows right |
Lateral Sacrum position | lead on table behind patient back, affected side down, knees and hips flexed, support waist |
Lateral sacrum CR | at level of ASIS and 3.5" posterior |
Lateral coccyx position | on affected side, knees and hips flexed, support waist |
Lateral coccyx CR | 2" inferior to ASIS and 3.5" posterior |
Lateral sacrum and coccyx | 2" inferior to ASIS and 3.5" posterior |
Inlet pelvis | pelvic trauma, assess posterior displacement of hemipelvis |
Inlet CR | 40 degrees caudad, at level of ASIS |
Inlet...what profiled | shows elongation of rim and ischial spine |
Outlet pelvis | assess superior displacement of the posterior half of pelvis, profiles rami |
Outlet CR | 30-45 degrees cephalad females, 10-35 males; 2" distal to symphesis pubis |
Outlet...what profiled | rami without foreshortening |
Judet (oblique acetabulum)position | 45 degree oblique, affected side down |
Judet CR | 2" distal and 2" medial to ASIS |
Judet RPO | Right anterior rim and left posterior rim profiled |
Judet LPO | Left anterior rim and right posterior rim profiled |
XTL position | build up hips, unaffected leg 90 degree flexion, foot supported |
XTL cassette | 10x12 LW to bone |
Legg-Perthes disease | flattening of femoral head due to vascular interruption |
Paget's disease | Thick, soft bone marked by bowing and fractures |
pelvic cavity | region between the inlet and outlet of true pelvis |
AP Oblique, Frog Hip (Modified Cleaves)what profiled... | femoral heads, necks and trochanteric areas on one radiograph for comparison |
