Pelvis, Hip, and Thigh examination

pelvic ring protects vital internal structures

A stable central base for human locomotionA foundation for the spine and upper body A point of origin or insertion for many muscles of the thorax, the hip, and the thigh

ball-and-socket design considerable motion in three planessecond only to the shoulder in the range and complexity of its potential motion.

True leg length discrepancy

Functional, or apparent, leg length discrepancyTrue Versus Functional Leg Length DiscrepancyIn a true leg length discrepancy, the actual length of the patient's two lower limbs, when measured from the femoral heads to the plantar surfaces of the feet, is different. Causes: one of the bones of the lower limb actually being shorter or longer than its counterpart on the other side: varus or valgus deformities of the femoral neckcongenital anomalies of the femur or tibiagrowth disturbances of the femur or tibia..

Functional leg length discrepancyApparent leg length discrepancy,the patient's two lower limbs are identical in length; however, other factors, such as joint or muscle contractures, cause one of the lower limbs to function as if it were shorter or longer than the other.causes :contractures at the lumbosacral junction due to scoliosis or other causes posttraumatic deformities of the pelvisabduction or adduction contractures of the hip or flexion contracture of the knee
