number of hip bones | 2 |
bones that make up pelvis | 2 hip bones, sacrum & coccyx |
composed of only the 2 hip bones | pelvic girdle |
os coxae | hip bone |
innominate bone | hip bone |
3 parts of the hip bone | ilium, pubis & ischium |
joining of 3 parts of hip bone; forms cup-shaped socket that receives femoral head | acetabulum |
True or false? Cartilage separates parts of hip bone in youth. | True |
superior part of hip; consists of body & ala | ilium |
forms 2/5 of acetabulum superiorly | body of ilium |
curved portion of ilium | ala |
superior margin extending from ASIS to PSIS | iliac crest |
inferior & posterior portion of ala that articulates with sacrum | auricular surface |
smooth, arc-shaped ridge that forms part of the circumference of the pelvic brim | arcuate line |
located on medial surface of ala | iliac fossa |
formed by inward curvature of ilium | greater sciatic notch |
inferoanterior part of hip bone; consists of a body, superior & inferior rami; forms anterior 1/5 of acetabulum | pubis |
inferoposterior part of hip bone; consists of a body & ischial ramus; forms posterior 2/5 of acetabulum | ischium |
expanded portion of ischium | ischial tuberosity |
formed by rami of pubis & ischium | obturator foramen |
indentation just below ischial spine | lesser sciatic notch |
prominent projection at superoposterior border of ischial body | ischial spine |
longest, strongest & heaviest bone in the body | femur |
prominent ridge between greater & lesser trochanters at base of neck on posterior surface of femoral body | intertrochanteric crest |

boundary line of pelvic oblique plane | brim of the pelvis |
region ↑ the pelvic brim | false or greater pelvis |
region ↓ the pelvic brim | true or lesser pelvis |
superior aperture | inlet of the true pelvis; formed by brim |
inferior aperture | outlet of the true pelvis; from inferior pubic symphysis to tip of coccyx & btwn ischial tuberosities |
region btwn inlet & outlet | pelvic cavity |
