Question
Answer
Characteristics   ball and socket joint consisting of the convex femur concave acetabulum hip goes through 10 degrees of extension and 30* of flexion during gait cycle  
🗑
Acetabulofemoral joint   most mobile joints of the body (except glenhumeral) -multiaxial arrangements -bony archetecture provides stability=relatively few hip joint sublux and dislocation -enarthrodial -femoral headinserting to acetabulum-reinforced by extremely strong dense  
🗑
acotabulofemoral joint ligaments   iliofemoral, pubofemoral, teres ligament, ischiofemoral ligament  
🗑
iliofemoral ligament   located anteriorly, prevents hyperextension,check IR and ext, from ASIS and superior rim of acetabulum to anterior aspect of acetabulum(lat fork) and ant to the lesser trochanter(med fork)  
🗑
pubofemoral ligament   located anteromedially and inferiorly, limits excessive extension and ABD, runs from the pubis to the femur just anterior to the lesser trochanter  
🗑
Teres ligament   attaches from deep in acetabulum to a depression in the femoral head, slightly limits ADD, rund from fovea of femoral head to the inferior aspect of acetabulum, helps provide vascularization of femoral head, halps lubricate joing  
🗑
Ischiofemoral ligament   located posteriorly, from ischium to trochanteric fossa of femur, limits ext and IR runs from ischium just posterior to the rim of Acetabulum to posterior superior femur  
🗑
Angle of inclinations   angle formed by the neck and shaft of the femur in the frontal plane-125* in adults-150* in children  
🗑
coxa valgum   an increase in the angle of inclination  
🗑
coxa varum   a decrease in the angle of inclination  
🗑
Angle of torson   angle formed by the femoral neck with the femoral condyles normal is 15*  
🗑
Anteversion   angel greater than 15*, appears to lack ER, had toe in gait  
🗑
Retroversion   angle less than 15*, appears to lack IR, has toe out gait  
🗑
Bursa of hip   iliopectinial, trochanteric, ischial,  
🗑
iliopectinial bursa   lies beneath the illiopsoas muscle as it crosses the hip joint, pain with extension and IR of hip  
🗑
trochanteric bursa   reduces friction between the glutes and the greater trochanter, most extensive posterolateral under the glute max  
🗑
ischial bursa   lies between the ischial tuberosity and the hamstring attachment, from prolonged sitting of trauma to the ischium  
🗑
Anterior muscles   primarily hip flex, iliopsoas, pectineus, rectus femoris, sartorius  
🗑
Medial muscles   adductor brevis, adductor longus, adductor magnus, gracilis  
🗑
posterior muscles   glute max, biceps femoris, semitendinosis, semimembranosis, external rotators  
🗑
lateral muscles   primarily hip ABD, glute med, glute min, external rotators, TFL  
🗑
Pelvic muscles in the iliac region   iliacus, psoas major, psoas minor  
🗑
pelvic musclse in the gluteal region   glute max, glute min, glute med, TFL, six deep external rotators-piriformis, obdurator externis, obdurator internis, gemellus inferior, gemellus superior, quadratis femoris  
🗑
Thigh muscles   divided into three compartents by intermuscular septa  
🗑
Anterior thigh compartment   mainly knee extension-rectus femoris, vastis lateralis, vastis intermedius, vastis medialis, sartorius  
🗑
Posterior thigh compartment   hamstring group-biceps femoris, semimembranosis, semitendinosis  
🗑
medial thigh compartment   adductor brevis, adductor longus, adductor magnus, pectinius, gracilis  
🗑
Lumbar plexis   formed by anterior rami of spinal nerves L1-L4 and some fibers from T12, lower ab and anterior and medial portion of LE  
🗑
Sacral plexis   formed by anterior rami of L4, L5, S1-S4, lower back, pelvis, perineum, posterior surface of thigh and leg, and dorsal plantar surfaces of foot  
🗑
femoral nerve   arises from posterior division of sacral plexus, innervates iliopsoas, rectis femoris, vastis medialis, vastis lateralis, vastis intermedius, pectinius, sartorius, sensation to anterior and lateral thigh, and medial leg and foot  
🗑
Obdurator nerve   arises from anterior division of lumbar plexus, adductor brevis, adductor longus, adductor magnus, gracillis, obdurator externis, sensation to the medial thigh  
🗑
Superior gluteal nerve   part of sacral plexus, arises from L4, L5, &S1, innervates glute med and min, and TFL  
🗑
Inferior gluteal nerve   sacral plexus, arises from L5, S1, S2, innervates glute max  
🗑
Branches from the sacral plexus   piriformis (S1, S2), gemellus superior (L5, S1, S2), genellus inferior and obdurator internis (L4, L5, S1, S2), quadratis femoris (L4, L5, S1)  
🗑
sciatic nerve-tibial division   from sacral plexus, semitendinosis, semimembranosis, long head of biceps femoris, &adductor magnus, sensation to posteriolateral lower leg, and plantar aspect of foot  
🗑
common peroneal tibial division   anteriolateral lower leg and dorsum of foot  
🗑
Hip pointer   involves ASIS or iliac crest & nerves &muscles in area, symptoms may take 30min-1hr to show, etiology-direct blow to asis or illiac crest, presentation-p!, swelling, discoloration, ROM, decreased strength, gait maybe effected in sever cases  
🗑
Piriformis Syndrome   siactic nerve irritation caused by piriformis,nerve runs thru/under,etiology-trauma to butt or tight piriformis, presentation-elimiate lumbar dysfunction w nerve tests, deep butt p! @ sciatic notch w no back p!, p! radiating in leg, gait-decreased stride  
🗑
Bursitis-Trochanteric   bursa lies between glute max & greater trochanter, etiology-can be due to increased Q angle or prolonged adducted running, direct trauma to greater trochanter, presentation-p! to palpation over greater trochanter, abd gait, p! w/ ADD stretch or active ABD  
🗑
groin strain   sartorius, gracilis, and add muscles, etiology-hyperABD w/ ER of hip,running twisting, kicking may cause it, presentation-p! w/ contraction of ADD & w/ stretch of ABD, p! to palpate over muscle depending on severity, activity maybe decreased 2ndary to p!  
🗑
Hip flexor strain   iliopsoas and rectis femoris, etiology-hyper ext of hip w/ knee bent or straigh, running kicking hockey, presentation-p! w/ active hip flex & limited hip ext, maybe P! over muscle belly depending on severity  
🗑
Hamstring Strain   semimem, semi tend, biceps femoris, etiology-quads too strong, over ext of knee w. hip flex, presentation-p! w/ active knee flex/hip ext, decreased stride in gait, p! to palpate over muscle belly depending on severity, decreased ROM  
🗑
Quad strain   vastis lateralis, vastis medialis, vastis intermedius, rectis femoris, etiology-forceful quad contraction, over stretch of quads, presentation-p! w/ active knee ext or quad stretch, P! w/ gait depending on severity, p! over muscle, decreased ROM  
🗑
Hip Dislocation   MEDICAL EMERGENCY! Hip is adducted and internally rotated  
🗑
