There are certain factors that can put people at higher risk for hip labral tears, including trauma, hip impingement, and structural abnormalities. Article Hip Muscle, Tendon, and Ligament Anatomy Twenty-one muscles cross the hip joint. These muscles work with the hip tendons and ligaments to...
The hip joint is held together by an extensive architecture of soft tissues – muscles, tendons, and ligaments – permitting stable yet flexible support to the upper body and motion for the lower body. Two spongy fluid-filled sacs called the trochanteric bursa and the iliopsoas bursa are located...
The trochanteric bursais a sac on the outside part of the hip that serves to protect muscles and tendons as they cross the greater trochanter (bony prominence on the femur). Trochantericbursitisdescribes the inflammation of this bursa. The bursa may become inflamed for a variety of reasons, of...

Anatomy How does the hip normally work? The hip joint is one of the true ball-and-socket joints of the body. The hip socket is called the acetabulum and forms a deep cup that surrounds the ball of the upper thigh bone, known as the femoral head. The thick muscles of the buttock at...
This chapter will discuss and review the anatomy, biomechanics and injury processes that occur in the pelvis focussing on the hip joint, symphyseal region, surrounding muscles and tendons. Imaging features and strategies will be presented for all conditions outlining how these findings aid diagnosis,...

The purpose of a healthy bursa is to reduce friction between bone and surrounding soft tissue, such as skin, muscles, ligaments and tendons. There are more than 140 bursae in the body,1Azar FM, Beaty JH, Canale TS, eds. Campbell’s Operative Othopaedics, 13th ed., vol 1, page 482....
1.1.1.4 Muscles The ligaments of the hip joint are overlaid by several large muscles, which can be broadly divided into flexors, extensors, abductors, adductors, and external and internal rotators. The main hip flexors are the iliopsoas, sartorius, and rectus femoris. Pectineus, the adductor...
