Figure 4.25. Surface reconstruction of innominate (In) and femur (Fm) of Plesiadapis cookei (UM 87990) based on CT data [CT image resolution = 0.18(x) x 0.18(y) x 0.20(z) mm]. A, shows major increments of change in femoral orientation and articulation with innominate during gait cycle. 5 – closest packed posture suggesting that the usual or average posture of the femur is one in which it is flexed, abducted and slightly laterally rotated. Steps 1-5 show how abduction-adduction, mediolateral rotation, and flexionextension movements combined during the gait cycle to bring the thigh through a large positional and angular excursion, while keeping the joint surfaces of the acetabulum and femur in maximal overlap. Going from the closest-packed position of the hip to pushing off the substrate (5 1) would have simply entailed extension the abducted femur. During the swing phase (1 2) the thigh was adducted and flexed without any axial rotation. At touch down (2 3) the femur was probably medially rotated, especially if the tibia and foot were incorporated into increasing the length of the stride (see below). The beginning of the propulsive phase (3 4) likely entailed abduction until the posterolateral extension of the femoral head articular surface abutted the acetabulum. From here, lateral rotation would have brought the femur back to its closest packed position while also causing the body to swing forward (anteriorly) and ventrally on the tibae (4 5). From the closest packed position the femur could have extended, thus pushing the body further anteriorly. B, summary of movements in different planes through the gait cycle. 467
