Hip Origin/Insertion (Class 8)

Flashcards on Hip Anatomy and Movement

Condylar Axis

Line formed by midline going through lateral and medial femoral condyles.

Head-Neck Axis

Line formed by midline going through head and neck of femur.

Iliofemoral ligament

Strong ligament on the anterior side of the hip.

Pubofemoral ligament

Ligament on the anterior side of the hip.

Ischiofemoral ligament

Ligament on the posterior side of the hip.

Hip External Rotators

Gluteus Maximus and Sartorius

6 Short External Rotators of the Hip

Piriformis, Gemellus superior, Gemellus inferior, Obturator internus, Obturator externus, and Quadratus femoris

Piriformis Origin

Anterior side of the sacrum

Piriformis Insertion

Apex of the Greater Trochanter

Obturator Internus Origin

Internal side of the obturator membrane and surrounding structures

Obturator Internus Insertion

Greater Trochanter

Obturator Externus Origin

External surface of the obturator membrane and surrounding structures

Obturator Externus Insertion

Greater trochanter

Gemellus Superior Origin

Dorsal surface of the ischial spine

Gemellus Superior Insertion

Greater trochanter; blends with the tendon of the obturator internus

Gemellus Inferior Origin

Tuberosity of the ischium

Gemellus Inferior Insertion

Greater trochanter; blends with the tendon of obturator internus

Quadratus Femoris Origin

Lateral surface of the ischial tuberosity

Quadratus Femoris Insertion

Quadrate tubercle

Hip Internal Rotators

Gluteus Medius (Anterior Fibers), Gluteus Miniums, Tensor Fasciae Latae
