2 dni temu · Hip muscle anatomy consists of four main categories based on their location and function: the gluteal group, lateral rotator group, adductor group, and iliopsoas group. Seventeen main muscles comprise these groups, but some smaller muscles contribute to hip movements. Together these hip muscles perform multiple tasks at once.

21 sty 2022 · The hip joint is a ball and socket synovial joint, formed by an articulation between the pelvic acetabulum and the head of the femur. It forms a connection from the lower limb to the pelvic girdle, and thus is designed for stability and weight-bearing – rather than a large range of movement.
30 paź 2023 · The blood supply of the hip joint is from the medial and lateral circumflex femoral arteries (branches of the deep artery of the thigh), the obturator artery and the superior and inferior gluteal arteries. Together, these arteries form a periarticular anastomosis around the hip joint.
The hip joint connects the lower extremities with the axial skeleton. The hip joint allows for movement in three major axes, all of which are perpendicular to one another. The location of the center of the entire axis is at the femoral head. The transverse axis permits flexion and extension movement.
29 maj 2022 · The left and right hip bones (innominate bones, pelvic bones) are two irregularly shaped bones that form part of the pelvic girdle – the bony structure that attaches the axial skeleton to the lower limbs. The hip bones have three main articulations: Sacroiliac joint – articulation with the sacrum.
6 dni temu · The hip joint is a ball-and-socket synovial joint formed between the os coxa (hip bone) and the femur. A round, cup-shaped structure on the os coxa, known as the acetabulum, forms the socket for the hip joint. The rounded head of the femur forms the ball of the joint.
