name the hamstring muscle group

biceps femoris 

semimembranosis 

semitendinosis

100

which ligament helps with blood supply

ligamentum teres

100

the reticular parties travel within these fibers

retinacular fibers

100

This bone forms the superior two-fifths of the os coxae.

ilium

100

The hip joint capsule is made up of this type of connective tissue arrangement, containing both longitudinal and oblique fibers.

dense irregular fibers

200

name the origin of the gluteus maximus

coccyx, posterior iliac crest, edge of sacrum, sacrotuberous and sacroiliac ligaments
200

which ligament in the hip is the strongest

iliofemoral ligament

200

what artery is a secondary blood supply to the femur 

artery of the ligamentum teres

200

This bone forms the posterior two-fifths of the os coxae.

ischium

200

The capsule attaches around this rim proximally and on this part of the femur distally.

acetabular rim and femoral neck

300

This muscle assists in hip flexion, abduction, and internal rotation and attaches to the IT band.

TFL

300

name the 3 main (strong) ligaments of the hip

iliofemoral 

pubofemoral

ischiofemoral

300

These arteries, branches of the medial and lateral circumflex femoral arteries, provide the primary blood supply to the femoral head.

retinacular arteries

300

This bone forms the anterior one-fifth of the os coxae.

pubis

300

The hip capsule is thickest and thinnest in what regions

anterosuperiorly thickest and posteroinferiorly thinnest

400

Name all the hip external rotators

piriformis 

obturator internus

gemellus superior 

obturator externus

gemellus inferior

quadratus femori

400

which ligament(s) limits extension 

iliofemoral, pubofemoral, and ischiofemoral

400

In elderly individuals, this vessel may become obsolete or even absent in about 10% of people.

vessel of the ligamentum teres

400

The ASIS, PSIS, and greater sciatic notch are all landmarks found on this portion of the hip bone

the ilium

400

These fibers, found mainly on the anterior side of the capsule, carry the blood vessels that supply the femoral head.

retinacular fibers

500

This deep muscle stabilizes the pelvis and abducts the hip during single-leg stance.

Bonus 50 pts if you can tell me what fibers

gluteus medius 

bonus: anterior fibers

500

which ligament runs from the pubic ramus and obturator crest to the anterior femoral neck and limits abduction and extension.

pubofemoral

500

In children, this vessel plays a larger role in femoral head blood supply because the retinacular arteries can’t penetrate this structure.

cartilaginous epiphysis

500

The ischial spine, lesser sciatic notch, and ischial tuberosity are landmarks found on this posterior bone.

the ischium

500

There can be as many as this number of bursae located in and around the hip joint.
