    Re: Anterior rotation of the innominate bone: Ipsilateral or contralateral cause?

    Neuromuscular,
    Are you referring to a misaligned pelvis? That is a rotation or tilt of one innominate bone against the other? Please attach any reference you have.
    Regards,

    Re: Anterior rotation of the innominate bone: Ipsilateral or contralateral cause?

    Dear iliastolos:

    If you wish to call it a misaligned pelvis that is up to you.

    To see if the pelvic bones are differring from one side to the other do an ASIS to ASIS comparison with hip ABD.

    This can be done by landmarking the ASIS to ASIS, maintain these landmarks as your patient does hip ABD from closed stance to foot positions of 25 cm, 50 cm, 75 cm, 100 cm, etc. to the ability of the patient to comply.

    You can do an ASIS to PSIS on the side with the inferior ASIS and note if the innominate bone goes into further increase of pelvic angle or ASIS moves inferior to the PSIS significantly in anterior rotation movement.

    The cause as I have found is not the quads or sartorius, but the contralateral adductor longus. See what your results are and tell me what you have found.

    Best regards,

    Neuromuscular.
