The head of the femur inserts into the
acetabulum
the hip bone (aka the ____) has 3 gluteal lines. what are they?
pelvic bone or ilium

anterior, inferior, posterior lines
name the 4 iliac spines
anterior superior ASIS
Posterior Superior PSIS
Anterior Inferior AIIS
Posterior Inferior PIIS
what bone do you sit on? what does it look like?
the ischium. looks like a curved hook "c-like". posterior

has a 3rd of the acetabulum included in it.
3 parts of the pubis bone
superior and inferior ramus and obturator foramen
name the 2 important accessory ligaments from the sacrum to the ischium
sacrospinous ligament (divides the greater and lesser sciatic foramens)

sacrotuberous ligament
abduction of thigh at hip joint is done by what muscle? what else does this muscle do?
gluteus medius-also prevents downward tilt of pelvis on opposite side

abduction of thigh also by the gluteus minimus (and prevention of downward tilt)
trendelenburg's sign
dropped pelvis due to injury of gluteus medius and minimus on opposite side
what muscle crosses over both the hip joint and the knee joint? (laterally)
tensor fasciae latae-anything over 2 joints can cause problems clinically
5 muscles of the deep gluteal region superior to inferior
superior
(the deep gluteal region appears to form a super gem, in turn, obviously, to an inferior gem, which 4 females love)
piriformis (appears to form)
superior gemellus (a super gem)
obturator internus (in turn, obviously)
inferior gemellus (to an inferior gem)
quadratus femoris (4 females)

inferior
Sacral Plexus Nerve

Name all 7 and their vertebrae origins
L4,L5-S1-S4

superior glut 4,5,1
sciatic 4,5,1,2,3
inferior glut 5,1,2,
N to obturator internus 5,1
N to quadratus femoris 5,1
Post. Femoral Cutaneous 1,2,3
Pudendal 2,3,4
arteries in the pelvis
abdominal aorta->common iliac->internal iliac (vs external) which divides into 1) superior gluteal artery and 2) inferior gluteal artery and internal pudendal
stuff exiting ABOVE piriformis muscle (in the greater sciatic foramen)
superior gluteal nerve (glut med, glut mini, TFL)

superior gluteal vessels
stuff exiting BELOW piriformis muscle ( in greater sciatic foramen)
8 things (6 are nerves, 2 are vessels)

sciatic nerve
inferior gluteal nerve (to glut maximus)
inferior gluteal vessels
N to Obturator Internus
N to Quadratus Femoris
post. femoral cutaneous N
internal pudendal vessels
Pudendal Nerve
1 thing exiting the lesser sciatic foramen! what is it?
the obturator internus muscle
what structures enter the perineum? what do they pass thru?
3 things enter perimeum via passing thru the lesser sciatic foramen

PIN

pudendal nerve
Internal Pudendal vessels
N. to obturator internus
interomuscular injection should be given in which quadrant of the gluteal region? why is this?
in the superolateral part of upper lateral quadrant.

avoid injecting into or close to the sciatic nerve and other nerves and vessels located in the lower medial quadrant
4 parts of the cruciate anastomosis
inferior gluteal artery
lateral circumflex femoral artery (transverse branch)
medial circumflex femoral artery (transverse branch)
first perforating artery
piriformis syndrome is what? treatment?
the piriformis crosses 2 joints (sacroiliac and hip) with sciatic crossing underneath

sciatica=pain coursing down posterior leg following path of sciatic nerve

treatment: biomechanical issue
foot orthotics=limits rotation
massage, stretching, ice

usually due to result of stretching the piriformis muscle due to walking/running in laterally rotated way=tenses up piriformis
SI Dysfunction (sacroiliac joint dysfunction)

causes?
symptoms?
treatments?
excessive movement in the sacral/ilium joint causes osteoarthritis

pregnancy, additional weight, changes in gait stress the SI joints

leg length discrepancies can cause this, along with hip, knee, ankle, foot pain
symptoms=pain in lower back, back of hips, groin/thigh pain

treatment: anti-inflammatory and PT
