|
Is topographically and functionally the equivalent of the upper limb clavicle and scapula. It forms the lower limb girdle that attaches the limb to the vertical column |
Hip Bone |
|
|
The ilium, ischium, and pubis form the os coxae (hip bone) and meet one another at the acetabulum via the Y-shaped |
Triradiate cartilage |
|
|
Upper flattened part of the bone, possesses the iliac crest. Can be felt through the skin along its entire length |
Ilium |
|
|
L-shaped bone, possessing an upper thicker part, the body and a lower thinner part, the ramus |
Ischium |
|
|
Divided into a body, superior ramus, and inferior ramus |
Pubis |
|
|
The outer surface of the hip bone has a depression and it articulates with the almost spherical head of the femur to form the hip joint |
Acetabulum |
|
|
Articulation of the Hip Bone: Posterior |
Sacroiliac joint |
|
|
Articulation of Hip Bone: Anterior |
Symphysis Pubis |
|
|
Anatomical name of Hip Joint |
Acetabulofemoral joint |
|
|
Highest part of ilium |
Iliac crest |
|
|
The inferior margin of the acetabulum is deficient |
Acetabular notch |
|
|
Limited to horse shoe shaped and is covered with hyaline cartilage |
Articular surface |
|
|
Floor of acetabulum is non articular |
Acetabular fossa |
|
|
Arriculates above the acetabulum to form hip joint and below the tibia and patella to form the knee joint |
Femur |
|
|
Articulates with acetabulum of the os coxae to form the hip joint |
Femoral Head/ Head of Femur |
|
|
Connects the head to the shaft, passes downward, backward, and laterally makes an angle about 125 degrees |
Femoral Neck/ Neck of Femur |
|
|
Large eminences situated at the junction of the neck and the shaft |
Greater and lesser trochanter |
|
|
Depression at the center of the head. Attchment to the ligament of the head |
Fovea capitis |
|
|
Connects the trochanter anteriorly, where the iliofemoral ligament attaches |
Intertrochanteric line |
|
|
Connects the trochanter posteriorly |
Intertrochanteric crest |
|
|
Smooth and rounded on its anterior space but posteriorly has a ridge |
Shaft |
|
|
The cavity of the acetabulum is deepened by the presence of a fibrocartilaginous rim |
Acetabular labrum |
|
|
Type of joint of Hip joint |
Synovial ball-and-socket joint |
|
|
Strong inverted, Y-shaped ligament that prevents overextension during standing. Along intertrochanteric line (lies anteriorly) |
Iliofemoral ligament |
|
|
Other name of iliofemoral ligament |
Y ligament of Bigelow |
|
|
Triangular shaped ligament that limits extension and abduction. From superior ramus of pubis to the lower part of intertrochanteric line |
Pubofemoral ligament |
|
|
Spiral shaped ligament that us attached to the body of ischium and its fibers pass upward laterally to the greater trochanter. This limits extension |
Ischiofemoral ligament |
|
|
Formed by the acetabular labrum as it bridges the acetabular notch. It converts the notch into a tunnel through which the blood vessels and nerves enter the joint |
Transverse acetabular ligament |
|
|
This is thick, especially in women. Composed of fat that contribute to the prominence of buttock |
Superficial fascia |
|
|
It is continuous below with deep fascia or fascia lata, of the thigh. In the gluteal region, it splits to enclose the gleteus maximus muscle |
Deep fascia |
|
|
On the lateral surface of the thigh, the fascia lata is thickened to form a strong wide band |
Iliotibial band |
|
|
Bounded superiorlyby the iliac crest and inferiorly by the fold of the buttock |
Gluteal region |
|
|
Provides an exit from the pelvis into the gluteal region |
Greater sciatic foramen |
|
|
Provides an entrance into the perineum from the gluteal region. Its presence enables nerves and blood vessels that have left the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen |
Lesser sciatic foramen |
|
|
These ligaments function is to stabilize the sacrum and prevent its rotation at the sacroiliac joint by the weight of the vertebral column |
Sacrotuberous and Sacrospinous ligaments |
|
|
Structures that exit the greater sciatic foramen |
-Piriformis -Sciatic nerve -Posterior cutaneous nerve of the thigh -Superior and Inferior gluteal nerve -Superior and inferior gluteal arteries and veins -Nerves to obturator internus and quadratus femoris -Pudendal nerve -Internal pudendal artery and vein |
|
|
Structures that pass through the lesser sciatic foramen |
-Tendon of obturator internus muscle -Nerve to obturator internus -Pudendal nerve -Internal pudendal artery and vein |
|
|
Triangular depression situated in the upper part of the medial aspect of the thigh just below the inguinal ligament |

|
|
