True
|
|
|
What is the hip joint?
|
A synovial (free moving), triaxial (all directions), ball-and-socket joint.
|
|
|
What forms the hip joint?
|
The articulation of the head of the femur and a fossa known as the acetabulum.
|
|
|
Describe the motion of the hip joint.
|
The motion at the hip is transferred to the femur
|
|

Where is the femoral epicondyle?
|
Located w/knee bent, they are the bumps on either side of the knee.
|
|
|
Where is the hip joint?
|
The articulation of the head of the femur w/acetabulum of the hip.
|
|
|
T/F
A "U" shaped bank of cartilage called the labrum lines the top and sides of the acetabulum for stabilization. |
True
|
|

|
|
|
What is the greater trochanter?
Locate |
A large bump that projects laterally from the proximal end of the femur. (most people locate it too high, it is more inline with the symphysis pubis)
|
|
|
Where are the Fermoral Condyles?
Locate |
Have to bend the knee to feel, under the surface of the knee, either side of knee cap
|
|
|
Where is the adductor tubercle?
Locate |
Located on the superior surface of the medial epicondyle...trace the medial epicondyle to the superior surface's small projection.
|
|
|
Where is the tibial tuberosity?
Locate |
It's the distal attachment for the quadriceps, just distal to the knee on the anterior tibia.
|
|
|
Where is the fibular head?
Locate |
Found lateral to the tibial tuberosity. Is the lump on lateral side of knee
|
|
