Subchondral cysts, osteophytes, sclerosis, and joint fusion are radiographic findings often associated with this non-inflammatory condition of the hip.
What is osteoarthritis of the hip?
100
This is the earliest sign of osteoarthritis of the hip joint.
What is loss of internal rotation?
100
This is the initial medication of choice for treatment of primary hip osteoarthritis.
What is Tylenol?
100
Occurring in up to 20% of patients with low back pain and as high as 10% of the general population, this condition usually presents with pain over the insertion site of the gluteus medius, gluteus minimus, piriformus, and obturator internus muscles.
What is trochanteric bursitis?
Also known as greater trochanter pain syndrome.
100
Internal snapping hip syndrome results as this structure "snaps" over one of many structures. These structures can include the superior pubic ramus, iliopectineal eminence, anterior hip joint, femoral head or the lesser trochanter.
What is the iliopsoas tendon?
200
The abnormality in this radiograph can best be described in this way. 
What is a pincer lesion?
Subtype of femoral acetabular impingement.
200
Most commonly associated with alcohol abuse and steroid use, evaluation of this condition should involve MRI of BOTH hips.
What is avascular necrosis?
200
Often associated with conditions that cause altered gait mechanics, muscle imbalance, and reduced flexibility- this condition is best treated with IT band stretching, NSAIDs, strengthening of the hip abductor muscles, and in refractory conditions, local steroid injection.
What is trochanteric bursitis?
200
External snapping hip syndrome is typically caused by the interaction of these two structures.
What is the iliotibial band and the greater trochanter?
Gluteus maximus also accepted.
200
Patients with this condition often describe increased pain in the groin made worse with prolonged periods of standing, sitting, or walking.
What is a labral tear?
300
This type of fracture is most commonly seen along the inferior neck of the femur. It commonly presents in endurance athletes or military recruits. It is more stable than its counterpart.
What is a compression type stress fracture?
Counterpart is transverse compression fracture along the superior aspect of femoral neck.
300
This finding is present in approximately 22-55% of athletes with hip complaints. It is often associated with hip instability, iliopsoas impingement, trauma, femoral acetabular impingement, osteoarthritis.
What is a labral tear?
300
Postoperative dislocation rates have been shown to be similar (1-4%) in both the posterior and direct lateral approaches for total hip arthroplasty. "Hip precautions" typically refers to avoidance of these motions to reduce likelihood of dislocation.
What are flexion, adduction, internal rotation?
300
In muscle strains about the hip- including hamstrings, hip flexors, hip adductors- the injury typically occurs during this phase of muscle contraction.
What is eccentric muscle contraction phase?
300
As a complication in the less common anterior hip dislocation, this nerve is most commonly affected.
What is the femoral nerve?
400
Seen here, this condition can be associated with osteoarthritis or can be familial. It is most often seen in middle-aged women. It may be primary or secondary.
What is protrusio acetabuli?
Also know as acetabular protrusion.
400
This condition is characterized by abnormal contact between the femoral head-neck junction and the acetabular rim caused by abnormal bone morphology.
What is femoral acetabular impingement?
400
This type of strengthening exercise causes fewer shear forces by providing joint stabilization through muscle co-contractions. It tends to be more functional and closely mimics every day movements. It's defining feature is that the distal segment of the joint meets a fixed source of resistance. These exercises are usually initiated prior to its counterpart (which tends to strengthen muscle groups of a specific movement, addresses specific strength imbalances, but will increase shear forces across the joint.).
What is a closed kinetic chain exercise?
400
Although highly variable, this is the most widely accepted innervation of the SI joint. Frequently, this joint has a communication with the S1 foramen.
What is the primary dorsal rami of L5-S4?
Dorsal rami of L5-S2, ventral rami of L4, L5.
Possibly contribution from the superior gluteal nerve
400
In children aged 2-12 years, this adult condition is known as Legg-Calve-Perthes disease.
What is avascular necrosis?
500
This view along with a direct AP view of the sacrum best visualizes the SI joints. The patient is placed in a supine position and when possible, the knees and hips are flexed. The x-ray tube is centered on L5 to S1 and then angled 25 to 30 degrees toward the head.
What is the Ferguson view?
500
This is the most common type of hip fracture. It requires a strong fixation due to high forces generated in the area. Fractures of the hip often present with an externally rotated and shortened limb.
What is an intertrochanteric hip fracture?
500
As a general rule for rehab of soft tissue injuries, including hip flexor or adductor strains, this should be achieved prior to progressing to a strengthening program.
What is pain free range of motion?
500
These purely sensory nerves supply sensation into the lumbar and gluteal region. They often become entrapped around the iliac crest or sacrotuberous ligament and can be the source low back pain and gluteal pain, often mimicking sacroiliac joint pain.
What are the cluneal nerves?
Superior, middle, inferior.
500
The typical strength of the hamstrings compared to the strength of the quadriceps is described as this ratio.
What is 3:5?
