What causes anterior innominate?
Anterior rotation of the innominate may also occur as a result of adductor muscle tension shifting the head of the femur forward. As the iliacus attempts to stabilise the hip, it counternutates the SIJ resulting in sacral rotation/torsion to the opposite side and pelvic rotation to the ipsilateral side.
How is posterior innominate rotation diagnosed?
Compare the position of the medial malleoli again to see if there is a change. If there is a posterior innominate, the leg that appeared shorter will lengthen with the sit up. If there is an anterior innominate, the leg that appeared longer will shorten with the sit up.
