Study Notes

The Acetabulum

  • The ilium, ischium, and pubis fuse together to form the acetabulum, the socket that houses the femoral head.

The Coccyx

  • The coccyx, also known as the "tailbone", is the most inferior bone of the vertebral column.

The Femoral Head

  • The acetabulum faces laterally, anteriorly, and slightly inferiorly to articulate with the femoral head.

Pelvic Inlet

  • The sacrum borders the pelvic inlet posteriorly.

Sacroiliac Joint

  • The sacroiliac joint is stabilized by the iliolumbar ligament, which restricts movement between the sacrum and ilium.

Femoral Neck Angle

  • The normal angle of the femoral neck shaft in adults is between 120-130 degrees.

Highest Point of the Pelvis

  • The iliac crest is the highest point in the pelvis.

The Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS)

  • The ASIS serves as the origin of the sartorius muscle and the inguinal ligament.

Myositis Ossificans

  • Myositis ossificans, a condition that causes bone formation within muscle tissue, presents with a "moth-eaten" appearance and affects the adductor longus muscle.

The Ischium

  • The ischium, also known as the "sit bone", forms the posterior portion of the acetabulum and serves as the origin for the hamstring muscles and the biceps femoris (BF) muscle.

Ischiogluteal Bursitis

  • Prolonged sitting can irritate the ischiogluteal bursa causing pain and swelling, a condition known as ischiogluteal bursitis.

The Pectineus Muscle

  • The pectineus muscle originates from the pectineal line of the pubis.

Center Edge Angle

  • The center edge angle, also known as the "lateral center-edge angle," is a measurement used to assess hip joint stability.

Femoral Head Blood Supply

  • The medial circumflex femoral artery provides approximately 80% of the blood supply to the femoral head.

Q Angle

  • The normal Q angle in females is approximately 15-18 degrees.
  • The center edge angle decreases with age, which can lead to instability of the hip joint.

Decreased Q Angle

  • A decreased Q angle is associated with genu valgum (knock-knee) and may predispose individuals to patellofemoral joint pain.

Femoral Shaft Fractures

  • Transverse fractures are the most common type of fracture in the femoral shaft.
