Pelvic Girdle

Anatomy	Description
Hip Bone has what parts?	Ilium, Ischium, Pubis
Ilium: region and its parts	The superior portion of the hip one, consists of: Body, Ala, Iliac crest, anterior superior iliac spine, anterior inferior iliac spine, posterior superior iliac spine, posterior inferior iliac spine, greater sciatic notch, iliac fossa, auricular surface.
Ischium: region and its parts	ischial tuberosity, body, ischial ramus, ischial spine, obturator foramen
Pubis: region and its parts	anterior portion; Body, superior pubic ramus, inferior pubic ramus, pubic tubercle
Body of the ilium	the thickest portion that helps form the acetabulum
Ala (wing)	the upper expanded wing-like portion
iliac crest	ILIUM: expanded upper edge or border of the ala
anterior superior iliac spine	ILIUM: anterior projection marking the beginning of the iliac crest
anterior inferior iliac spine	ILIUM: a small projection just below or inferior to the anterior superior iliac spine
posterior superior iliac spine	ILIUM: posterior projection marking the end of the iliac crest
posterior inferior iliac spoine	ILIUM: a small projection just below the posterior superior iliac spin
greater sciatic notch	ILIUM: a deep indentation on the posterior margin just below the poterior inferior iliac spoine
iliac fossa	ILIUM: a smooth slight concave surface between the anterior and medial borders
auricular surface	ILIUM: an ear-shaped roughened surface on the medial border for an articulation with the sacrum
Ischial tuberosity	the lower rounded edge, roughened for muscular attachment of the hamstring muscles
Body of Ischium	thickest portion that fuses with the ilium and the pubis to form the acetabulum
Iscial ramus	ISCHIUM: an anterior projection from the iscial tuberosity which fuses with the inferior ramus of the pubis to form the lower border of the obturator foramen
iscial spine	ISCHIUM: a small pointed projection posteriorly just below the greater sciatic notch
obturator foramen	ISCHIUM: a large circular opening formed by the joining of the iscial ramus and the inferior pubic ramus
PUBIS: region of the hip bone and its parts?	anterior portion of the hip bone; has: body, superior pubic ramus, inferior pubic ramus, and pubic tubercle
Body of Pubis	fusses with the ilium and the iscium to form the acetabulum
superior pubic ramus	projects upward and laterally from the body
inferior pubic ramus	a short bar that extends backward or posteriorly from the body
pubic tubercle	a small bump at the medial edge of the superior pubic ramus
ACETABULUM	a cupshaped cavity formed by the fusion of the ilium, iscium, and pubic bones. the cup shape has an indentation inferiorly, called the acetabular notch. The head of the femur fits into the acetabulum to form the hip joint.
pelvic girdle: formed by what	two hip bones, joined anteriorly at the pubic symphysis, separated behind by sacrum, where they articulate. Pelvic girdle and sacrum form bony pelvis
acetabular notch	a cup shape with an inferior indentation
