Intro to Lower Limb and Muscles of the Hip Joint
Question | Answer |
---|---|
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 |
