Angle of inclination: Coxa valga

Answer 7

Coxa valga: greater than 135°
Associated with structurally long leg

Angle of inclination: coxa Vara

Answer 8

Coxa Vara: less than 125°
Associated with structurally short leg

Anterior portion of the head and neck of the femur
Normal: 12 to 15°

Question 11

Transverse plane deformity: anteversion

Answer 11

Greater than 15° of rotation

Symptoms: compensatory hip internal rotation, decreased in hip external rotation, in toeing

Question 12

Transverse plane deformity: retroversion

Answer 12

Less than 8° of anterior rotation

Symptoms: compensatory hip external rotation, decrease in hip internal rotation, out toeing

Question 13

Trabecular system of the femur

Answer 13

Zones of weakness: superior and lateral to neck of femur

Common fracture site

Question 14

Hip joint capsule

Answer 14

Fibrous sleeve like structure covering the synovial membrane

Proximally attaches to the labrum and distally attaches to the neck of the femur

Question 15

Hip joint: open packed position

Answer 15

30° of flexion, 30° of abduction, slight external rotation
Ligaments and tendons are not on stretch
Bony structures are not fully congruent

Question 16

Hip joint: close packed position

Answer 16

Ligamentous: extension, internal rotation, and abduction

Tony congruency: full flexion, abduction, external rotation

Question 17

Normal range of motions of the hip joint

Answer 17

Flexion: 120°
Extension: 30°
Abduction: 45°
Adduction: 30°
Internal rotation: 45°
External rotation: 45°

Question 18

2-joint limiters of hip range of motion

Answer 18

Flexion: hamstrings
Extension: rectus femoris
Abduction: gracilis
Adduction: TFL

Question 19

Effects of hip motion on pelvis and lumbar spine

Answer 19

Hip flexion: causes posterior pelvic tilt and extreme may cause lumbar flexion
Hip extension: causes anterior pelvic rotation and extreme may cause lumbar extension

Question 20

Closed chain motion of the hip

Answer 20

Described as innominate moving on Femur

Motions: posterior pelvic tilt, anterior pelvic tilt, pelvic rotation, lateral tilt

Question 21

Effects of Anterior pelvic tilt on hip

Answer 21

Produces hip flexion

Question 22

Effects of posterior pelvic tilt on hip

Answer 22

Produces hip extension

Question 23

Effects of pelvic rotation on the hip

Answer 23

Pelvic rotation: causes ipsilateral internal rotation and contralateral exhortation

Pelvic rotation to the left: left hip internal rotation and right hip external rotation
Pelvic rotation to the right: right hip internal rotation and left hip external rotation

Question 24

Effects of lateral pelvic tilt on the hip

Answer 24

Causes ipsilateral adduction and contralateral abduction Left pelvic tilt: left adduction and right abduction Right pelvic tilt: right adduction and left abduction

Question 25

Arthrokinematic motions of the hip joint

Answer 25

Direction of glide = direction of capsular limitation Flexion: anterior roll and posterior glide Extension: posterior roll and anterior glide Abduction superior roll and Inferior glide Adduction: inferior roll and superior glide External rotation: posterior roll and anterior glide Internal rotation anterior roll and posterior glide

Question 26

Ligaments of the hip joint capsule

Answer 26

Pubofemoral ligament, iliofemoral ligament, ischiofemoral ligament

Question 27

Transverse acetabular ligament

Answer 27

Provide shock absorption | Protects neurovascular supply to the head of the Femur

Question 28

Iliofemoral ligament

Answer 28

Strongest ligament of the hip joint Proximal attachment: iliac portion of the rim of the acetabulum and AIIS Distal attachment: anterior capsule and intertrochanteric line Limits hip hyper extension and lateral rotation. It's superior fibers limits hip adduction.

Question 29

Pubfemoral ligament

Answer 29

Attaches to pubic portion of acetabular rim and blends on to inferior hip joint capsule and iliofemoral ligament Limits hip extension and hip abduction

Question 30

Ischiofemoral ligament

Answer 30

Proximal Attachment: ischial portion of the rim of the acetabulum and blends onto the posterior capsule Distally attachment: intertrochanteric crest and medial aspect of the greater trochanter Restricts excessive hip extension posterior fibers restrict internal rotation Limits adduction of the thigh when the hip is flexed

Question 31

Ligament of head of femur (Ligamentum teres)
