Eval - pelvis, hip, femur Flashcards
Which bones form obturator foramen
Rami of pubis and ischium
Male vs Female pelvis
Female - wide outlet, oval inlet, shallow and light
Male - narrow outlet, round inlet, deep and heavy
Which and how much of bones form acetabulum
2/5 ilium, 2/5 ischium and 1/5 pubis
Type of joint for pubic symphysis
Cartilaginous and symphysis
Amphiarthrosis
Positioning for AP pelvis
Supine, Medially rotate lower legs 15-20 degrees
Place femoral neck parallel with IR
CR location for AP pelvis
Midway btwn asis and pubic symphysis
2” inferior to asis and 2” superior to ps
Good internal rotation of legs on AP pelvis is evident by… (3)
Femoral neck fully extended wo super of greater trochanters
Lesser trochanter in medial border
Greater trochanters in lateral profile
Entire pelvis free of rotation on AP (6)
Symmetrical ala, obturator foramen, femoral heads and acetabulum
Spinous process in center of vertebral body
Sacrum and coccyx aligned with ps
Symmetrical greater trochanters equal distance to spine
Method name for AP axial outlet
Taylor method
Angle, CR location and reason for AP outlet
30-35 cephalic
2” distal to superior border of pubic symphysis
Superior and inferior pubic rami wo foreshortening
How an AP axial looks different than AP
Ala is elongated
Inlet is foreshortened
Sacrum is elongated
Elongated femoral neck and obturator foramen
Method name for AP axial inlet
Bridgeman method
Angle, CR location and reason for Inlet
35 caudal
Level of ASIS and MSP
Demonstrates inlet and its entirety, Medially superimposed superior and inferior rami of pubic bone
Nearly superimposes lateral 2/3 of pubic and ischial bone
How does inlet look different than AP
Mickey Mouse No obturator foramen Elongated iliac, femoral trochanters Elongated inlet Sacrum is foreshortened and high Spinous process elongated and upward
Method name for oblique pelvis
Judet
How much oblique pelvis and CR location for external hip and internal hip
45 degrees
Bilateral CR is 2” below ASIS and MSP
Ext — perp to IR entering at pubic symphysis
Int — perp to IR entering 2” inferior to ASIS of affected side
What does posterior oblique pelvis demonstrate
Affected side up shows?
Affected side down shows?
Anterior rims of acetabulum
Posterior rim of acet.
Anterior rim of acet,
So rt hip LPO shows fx’s of posterior rim
Lt hip RPO shows fx’s of anterior rim
Other 2 names for fused hip bones
So coxa and innominant bone
Bones that form the hip JT
Ilium, pubis, ischium and femoral head
