hip Flashcards
(61 cards)
what part of the hip does not directly articulate with femoral head
acetabular fossa
lunate surface
superior horseshoe-shaped area that articulates with femoral head + is covered in hyaline cartilage
angle of acetabulum
50* inf
20* ant (anteversion)
coxa profunda
over-coverage of acetabulum on femur
(impingements common)
retroversion (+ the degrees)
hip positioned more posterior, leading to overcoverage
less than 10*
excessive anteversion (+ the degrees)
positioned more anteriorly, leading to instability
more than 20*
typical center edge angle?
what happens with more?
what happens with less?
22-50*
more = pincer impingement
less = acetabular dysplasia
typical acetabular angle of inclination?
what happens with more?
32-45*
more = acetabular dysplasia
how is acetabular inclination measured? what is it?
acetabular depth
measured from line parallel to teardrops on pelvis to lateral acetabulum
3 functions of hip labrum
- deepen socket
- maintains negative pressure
- proprioception/pain feedback
what ligament blends with the labrum
transverse acetabular ligament
what ligament attached to femur fovea
ligamentum teres (ligament of head of femur)
directions femur head faces
medial
superior
anterior
(in respect to fem shaft + condyles)
coxa valga vs vara
vara = decreased angle of inclination
valga = increased angle of inclination
SCFE increases with coxa valga or vara
vara bc higher bending/shear force
kids with CP tend to have coxa ____ and have genu _____. Why?
coxa valga
genu valgum
bc they usually have adductor hypertonicity
most joint congruence occurs with what 3 hip motions
flx
abd
ER
pavlik harness
used for babies with hip dysplasia
is the femoral neck intra or extracapsular
intracapsular
retinacular fibers
carry blood vessels that provide nutrition to fem head/neck
posterior hip bursa name
ischiogluteal
lateral hip bursa name
trochanteric
t/f: ligamentum teres is interarticular AND intrasynovial
false
its actually extrasynovial!!
what movements does the ligamentum teres resist
IR and ER when hip is at 90+ degrees of flexion
