An arthroscopic probe is seen at the junction of the labrum and acetabular rim. An acetabular labrum tear or hip labrum tear is a common injury of the acetabular labrum resulting from a number of causes including running, hip dislocation, and deterioration with ageing. Most are thought to result from a gradual tear due to repetitive microtrauma.
Acetabular depth ratio Deepness of acetabulum. The width is measured between the inferior margin of the teardrop and the lateral rim of the acetabulum. [11] The depth is measured perpendicularly from the midpoint of the width line. [11] >250 Less indicates a dysplastic hip; Center-edge angle of Wiberg The superior-lateral coverage of the ...
The acetabular labrum (glenoidal labrum of the hip joint or cotyloid ligament in older texts) is a fibrocartilaginous ring [1][2][3] which surrounds the circumference of the acetabulum of the hip, deepening the acetabulum. The labrum is attached onto the bony rim and transverse acetabular ligament. It is triangular in cross-section (with the ...
The acetabular notch is a deep [citation needed] notch in the inferior portion of the rim of the acetabulum. [1]: 1354 It is bridged by the transverse acetabular ligament, converting it into a foramen (through which nerves and vessels (including the acetabular notch of obturator artery [1]: 1250 ) pass into the hip joint cavity). [1]: 1368 It ...
Elementary fracture Description Associated fractures Description Posterior wall: This is the most common variety of acetabular fracture. It typically occurs due to dashboard injury; when a person travelling in a vehicle involved in a head-on collision, the force applied over the flexed knee travels along the femur bone to the head of the femur, breaking the posterior wall of the acetabulum.
The transverse acetabular ligament (transverse ligament[1] or Tunstall's ligament[citation needed]) bridges the acetabular notch, creating the a foramen (through which blood vessels and nerves pass into the joint cavity). [2] The ligament is one of the sites of attachment of the ligament of head of femur. [1][3]: 789.
The acetabulum is also home to the acetabular fossa, an attachment site for the ligamentum teres, a triangular, somewhat flattened band implanted by its apex into the antero-superior part of the fovea capitis femoris. The notch is converted into a foramen by the transverse acetabular ligament; through the foramen nutrient vessels and nerves ...
Labral reconstruction is a type of hip arthroscopy in which the patient's native labrum is partially or completely removed and reconstructed using either autograft or allograft tissue. Originally described in 2009 [1] using the ligamentum teres capitis, arthroscopic labral reconstruction using a variety of graft tissue has demonstrated ...
