MODULE 7 HIP
HIP: NORMAL ANATOMY AND POSITIONING • Three views • AP • Lateral • Frog Leg
LINES OF MENSURATION • Teardrop distance • Maximum of 11.0mm, minimum of 6.0mm, with an average of 9.0mm • Waldenstrom sign
Fig 3-48A Teardrop distance
Fig 3-48A Increased Teardrop distance
LINES OF MENSURATION • Hip joint space width • Three measurements • superior • axial • medial (aka - teardrop) • Pattern of collapse is very important to note
LINES OF MENSURATION • Acetabular Depth • <7.0mm in males and 9.0mm in females • Dysplasia has an intact joint space • Rheumatoid arthritis has a loss in joint space
Acetabular Depth Fig 3.50a
LINES OF MENSURATION • Center-edge angle • Represents “coverage” of femur head by acetabulum • Minimum of 20o, maximum of 40o, with an average of 36o
Center-edge angle Fig 3.51a
LINES OF MENSURATION • Symphysis Pubis Width • Increased width is indicative of cleidocranial dysplasia, bladder exostrophy, HPT, trauma - diastasis, osteolysis - ankylosing spondylitis, osteopubis, gout
Symphysis Pubis Width Fig 3.52a
Symphysis Pubis Width Fig 3.52b
LINES OF MENSURATION • Acetabulur angle • Minimum 12o, maximum 29o, with an average of 20o • Increased angle is indicative of dysplasia, congenital hip dislocation • Decreased angle is indicative of Down’s syndrome
Acetabulur angle Fig 3.54
LINES OF MENSURATION • Protrusio acetabuli (Kohler’s line) • Femur head should be lateral • If acetabulum floor crosses line - idiopathic, rheumatoid arthritis, Paget’s (osteomalacia)
Kohler’s line Fig 3.57b
