ASMT- A&P2 #4

Intro to Lower Limb and Muscles of the Hip Joint

QuestionAnswer
Deep Hip Rotator Muscles obteratur internus, superior gemellus, inferior gemellus, quadratus femoris, piriformis, obturator externus
Obturator Externus (origin) obturator foramen (external side)
Obturator Externus (insertion) post. greater trochanter
Obturator Externus (function) lat. rotation, abduction of flexed hip
Piriformis (origin) ant. sacrum
Piriformus (insertion) sup. greater trochanter
Piriformis (function) lat. rotation, abduction of flexed hip
Piriformis (structure/relationship) sciatic nerve usually passes b/w this muscle and the gemellus
Quadratus Femorus (origin) lat. ischial tuberosity
Quadratus Femorus (insertion) post. greater trochanter
Quadratus Femorus (function) lat. rotation
Quadratus Femorus (structure/relationship) most inferior of deep hip rotators, 4 sided muscle
Inferior Gemellus (origin) lesser sciatic notch
Inferior Gemellus (insertion) post. greater trochanter
Inferior Gemellus (function) lat. rotation, abduction of flexed hip
Superior Gemellus (origin) ischial spine
Superior Gemellus (insertion) post. greater trochanter
Superior Gemellus (function) lat. rotation, abduction of flexed hip
Superior Gemellus (structure/relationship) sciatic nerve is usually found superior to this muscle
Obturator Internus (origin) obturator foramen
Obturator Internus (insertion) post. greater trochanter
Obturator Internus (function) lat. rotation, abduction of flexed hip
Gluteal Muscles gluteus minimus, gluteus medius, gluteus maximus, tensor fasciae latae
Tensor Fasciae Latae (origin) ant. sup. iliac spine (ASIS)
Tensor Fasciae Latae (insertion) IT band
Tensor Fasciae Latae (function) flexion, abduction, and med. rotation of hip
Tensor Fasciae Latae (structure/relationship) most superficial of gluteal muscles, only muscle in body that doesn't insert into bone
Gluteus Maximus (origin) iliac crest, post. sacrum, coccyx
Gluteus Maximus (insertion) 75% IT band, 25% gluteal tuberosity of femur (linea aspira)
Gluteus Maximus (function) lat. rotation & extension of hip
Gluteus Maximus (structure/relationship) largest of gluteal muscles, typically thickest/densest muscle in body
Gluteus Medius (origin) sup. iliac fossa
Gluteus Medius (insertion) lat. greater trochanter
Gluteus Medius (function) abduction and med. rotation of hip
Gluteus Medius (structure/relationship) middle muscle of gluteal muscles, the "walking" muscle
Gluteus Minimus (origin) post. iliac fossa
Gluteus Minimus (insertion) lat. greater trochanter
Gluteus Minimus (function) abduction and med. rotation of hip
Gluteus Minimus (structure/relationship) smallest & deepest of gluteal muscles
Hip Flexor Muscles psoas, iliacus
Psaos (origin) vert. bodies and discs of lumbar spine
Psaos (insertion) lesser trochanter
Psaos (function) flexion of hip
Psaos (structure/relationship) only muscle to connect & cross over the upper body to the lower limb, most sciatic & back pain is caused by this muscle
Iliacus (origin) internal iliac fossa
Iliacus (insertion) lesser trochanter
Iliacus (function) flexion of hip
