19
Q

Position and CR location for AP hip

A

Fully extend leg and Medially rotate 15-20 degrees
To place femoral neck parallel to IR
Perp to femoral neck — 2 1/2 “ to midpt of line drawn btwn ASIS and PS

20
Q

Proper AP hip evident by

A

Minimal visualization of lesser trochanter
Greater trochanter in profile
Full visualization of femoral neck wo super
Open obturator foramen
Coccyx lined up with PS

21
Q

Structures included on AP hip

A

Prox 1/3 of femur
PS
All hardware
Ilium

22
Q

Method name for AP Oblique hip, commonly called

A

Modified cleaves

Commonly called frog leg

23
Q

What will AP oblique hip demonstrate

A

Femoral neck wo super of greater trochanter
Oblique projection of femoral head
Lesser trochanter in medial and slight inferior profile

24
Q

Method names for lateral hip

A

Lauenstein method
Hickey method
Axiolateral

25
Q

Lateral Lauenstein hip position, projection and CR

A

Flex and abduct affected leg 90 degrees, femoral shafts parallel to IR
Mediolateral
Perp to femoral neck

26
Q

True lateral projection of hip

A

Greater trochanter almost superimposed
Lesser somewhat inferior
Don’t see much femoral neck as modified cleaves
Femoral neck is super by greater

27
Q

CR and why for lateral hickey hip

A

20-25 cephalic
Tube angle takes away super of greater trochanter w femoral neck
Greater is thrown inferiorly in visualization

28
Q

Axiolateral hip method name is? Commonly called? When do this projection

A

Danelius method
Cross table lateral
When suspected fx, trauma or of pt can’t flex and abduct hip, post op

29
Q

Patient positioning for Axiolateral hip, what if pt is thin?

A

Supine
Elevate unaffected leg and place on support
Try to Medially rotate affected leg
Keep pelvis in AP

Thin- elevate pelvis on sponge and push IR into bed

30
Q

CR location for axiolateral hip

A

Perp to long axis of femoral neck and IR

Height about 2” inferior to PS

31
Q

How does axiolateral look different than lateral hip

A

Lesser troch posterior ischial tuberosity
Ischial tuberosity is elongated and below femoral neck
Femoral neck with less super by greater troch
Don’t see obturator foramen

32
Q

Method name for modified axiolateral hip, positioning?

A

Clements-Nakayama

Suspected bilateral fx, keep supine both legs

33
Q

CR for modified axiolateral hip

A

15 posterior

Keep perp to IR towards femoral neck

34
Q

How does axiolateral differ from lateral …. Trochanters, Ischial tuberosity, femoral neck and obturator

A

Lesser trochanter pointing posteriorly to ischial tuberosity
Ischial tuberosity is elongated and below femoral head
Femoral neck less super by greater
Can’t see obturator foramen

35
Q

What two areas of femur most commonly fx

A

Neck and intertrochanteric crest

36
Q

Highest point of greater trochanter lies in what same horizontal plane axial skeleton?

Most lateral point of greater lies in what horizontal plane of pelvis?

A

Coccyx

Pubic symphysis

37
Q

Femoral neck in relation to ASIS and ps? Femoral head?

A

2 1/2” distal to line drawn perp to midpt line drawn btwn ASIS and ps

1 1/2”

38
Q

A

125 degrees

39
Q

Where is the intertrochanteric line

A

Anterior side of femur

40
Q

Three proximal criteria of femur

A

Greater tro in lateral profile wo super of femoral neck

Minimal visualization of lesser tro

Femoral neck not foreshortened

41
Q

Three distal criteria of femur
