| Artery that enters the buttocks through the greater sciatic foramen below the piriformis muscle | inferior gluteal artery |
| Artery of considerable importance in children because it supplies the head of the femur | artery of the ligamentum teres |
| Artery that is important in the surgical repair of the femoral hernia | obturator artery |
| All of the following arteries are a branch of the internal iliac artery except superior gluteal artery inferior gluteal artery obturator artery or the femoral artery | The femoral artery is a continuation of the external iliac artery distal to the inguinal ligament and enters the femoral triangle |
| Where does the superior and inferior gluteal artery | the greater sciatic foramen |

| This reinforces the hip joint inferiorly | Pubo femoral ligament |
| Thinnest ligament that reinforces the dip joint posteriorly | Ischiofemoral ligament |
| Play some minor role in the stability of the ship that carries the artery to the head of the | |
| ligamentum teres | |
| Boundaries of the femoral triangle | Superiorly the inguinal ligament laterally the sartorius muscle medially the adductor longus muscle |
| femoral triangle | Floor Pectineua and iliopsoas muscle roof fascial lata |
| Structures in the femoral triangle from medial to lateral | femoral canal femoral vein femoral artery femoral nerve |
| Fracture that most commonly occur in high-energy motor vehicle accidents or false where indirect force are transmitted to the femoral head | acetabular fractures |
| Anterior dislocations of the hip joint are common true or false | False |
| What type of hip joint dislocation if the lower limb is external irritated and abducted | Anterior dislocation |
| What type of hip joint dislocation where the lower limb is internally rotated adducted and shorter than the normal named | posterior dislocation |
| What is injured in anterior dislocations of the hip joint and what are injured in the posterior dislocation of the hip joint | Anterior femoral artery in the posterior the sciatic nerve and the necrosis of the femoral head |
| Factor that commonly occurs in elderly women with osteoporosis | femoral neck fracture |
| Type of fracture where the lower leg is externally rotated and shorter than the normal limb live lim | Femoral neck fracture |
