Unit 4 Hip Flashcards
1
Q
Hip Joint
A
- Femoral head & acetabulum articulation
- Bilateral
- Synovial joint
- Ball & socket
- High mobility (less mobility than shoulder)
2
Q
Ligaments
A
- Iliofemoral
- Pubofemoral
- Ischiofemoral
3
Q
Intracapsular Structures
A
- Acetabular labrum
- Ligament head of femur
- Transverse ligaments of acetabulum
4
Q
Acetabular Labrum
A
- Thickening of fibrocartilage around acetabular
- Deepens joint socket
- Better contact with femur head
5
Q
Ligament Head of Femur
A
- Obturator artery brancher
- Provide vasculature
- Attaches on fovea
6
Q
Transverse Ligaments of Acetabulum
A
- Thickening of anterior aspect of acetabulum
- Reinforcement
7
Q
Trochanteric
A
- Separate glutes from greater trochanter
- Prevent rubbing between gluteal muscles & bone
8
Q
Greater Trochanter
A
- Lateral aspect of femur
9
Q
Ischiogluteal
A
- Inferior aspect of ischial tuberosity
- Separate gluteus maximus & tuberosity
10
Q
Hip Fracture
A
- Pull iliopsoas on lesser trochanter of femur
- External rotation
11
Q
Hip Dislocation
A
- Posterior
- Traction of adductor group
- Internal rotation
12
Q
Foot Drop with Hip Dislocation
A
- Inability to dorsiflex
- Weak eversion
- Foot hangs when raised off ground
- Long high steps
13
Q
Femoral Neck Fracture
A
- Tear foveal & femoral arteries
- Avascular necrosis
14
Q
Muscle Regions
A
- Gluteals
- Deep rotators
- Iliopsoas
- Thigh
15
Q
Gluteal Muscles
A
- Gluteus maximus
- Gluteus medius
- Gluteus minimus
- Tensor fascia latae
