HIP FLEXORS (ILIACUS, RECTUS,SARTORIUS & TFL# BIOMECHANICS & PATHOMECHANICS)# PART 2

BIOMECHANICS AND PATHOMECHANICS OF HIP FLEXORS are discussed in detail in this second part of lecture series EXPLORING HIP FLEXORS. Hip flexors are PSOAS MAJOR, ILIACUS, RECTUS FEMORIS, and SARTORIUS AND TENSOR FASCIA LATAE. The PSOAS MAJOR AND ILLACUS are collectively called as ILLIOPSOAS MUSCLE. The individual function of ILIACUS is discussed along with mechanics and pathomechanics of its action. ILIACUS IS flexor of hip along with flexion it act as lateral rotator of hip.
The weakness of ILIOPSOAS can result in a condition known as hanging on ligaments as well as tightness can result in hip flexion contracture that can either be bilateral or unilateral. Ultimately it may result in increased lumbar lordosis or the opposite of attenuation of lordosis which may cause facet joint pathology or inter-vertebral disc degeneration.
Details on SARTORIUS, RECTUS FEMORIS, and TENSOR FASCIA LATAE along with their role in hip flexion, effect of tightness and weakness are also discussed.The conditions like SNAPPING HIP SYNDROME, TROCHANTERIC BURSITIS etc. are also discussed with the TENSOR FASICA LATAE. The relation between HIP FLEXORS AND ABDOMINALS like RECTUS ABDOMINIUS is also discussed along with demonstrations.
