Term
The hip bone (os coxae) is formed by fusing of what bones?
Definition
Ilium (superior), Ischium (posteroinferior), Pubis (anteroinferior)
Term
Where are the 3 hip bones (os coxae) fused?
Definition
Acetabulum(the articular depression for the head of the femur) by a y-shaped cartilage, fusion begins around age 16, completely fused around age 23.
Term
Dorsum Ilium - Landmarks and origins of these muscles?
Definition
anterior, posterior and inferior gluteal lines (origins of gluteus minimus, medius and maximus)
Term
The landmarks of the ilium boarder are?
Definition
The iliac crest,
anterior superior iliac spine,
anterior inferior iliac spine,
posterior superior iliac spine,
posterior inferior iliac spine,
greater sciatic notch
Term
Iliac crest - location marker for what?
Definition
most superior point of the bilateral iliac crests will cross the 4th lumbar spine (L4). This is a guide to lumbar spinal tap because the spinal cord ends around L1-L2.
Term
Bilateral posterior superior iliac spines forms a line for what purpose?
Definition
a line joining the 2 spines bilaterally will cross the 2nd sacral spine: this is the level of the bottom of subarachnoid space which contains cerebrospinal fluid.

This line will also cross the sacroiliac articulation.
Term
Ischium has the these landmarks.
Definition
ischial spine
lesser sciatic notch
body of the ischium
ischial tuberosity
Ramus of ischium
Term
The Ramus of the ischium fuses with what?
and at what age? Joined together bilaterally makes what?
Definition
fuses with the inferior ramus of the pubis at age8. Joined together bilaterally forms the pubic arch (subpubic angle).
Term
Pubis body has this surface to atriculate with the contralateral pubis.
Definition
symphyseal surface
Term
Pubis landmarks are.
Definition
pubic crest (medial end) ends at public tubercle (lateral end)
Superior ramus
the spiral margin of the obturator foramen
inferior ramus
Term
Ridges on the superior ramus of the Pubis are called? and serve as attachment point for?
Definition
Ridges called the pecten pubis or pectineal line and serves as attachment point for the pectineus muscle.
Term
Nerves and vessels running through the obturator are in contact with?
Definition
Obturator vessels and nerves will lie in contact with the inferior surface of the superior ramus.
Term
Proximal end of the femur landmarks are?
Definition
head
neck
greater trochanter
