Pelvis • The pelvis is composed of three bones: Ilium Ischium Pubis
Pelvis: Lateral Surface • Acetabular fossa: For articulation with head of femur. Lunate surface. • Acetabular notch. • Acetabular labrum: Fibrocartilage rim around edge of acetabulum.
Pelvis: Lateral Surface • Obturator foramen: Covered by membrane. Passage for obturator nerve and vessels.
Pelvis: Lateral Surface • Ischial ramus. • Pubic rami: Superior. Inferior. • Pubic tubercle: Attachment for inguinal ligament.
Pelvis: Anterior Edge • Anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) Attachment of inguinal ligament. Proximal attachment for: Sartorius muscle. • Figure 3.3.
Pelvis: Anterior Edge • Anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS): Proximal attachment for: Straight head of rectus femoris.
Pelvis: Posterior Edge • Posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). • Posterior inferior iliac spine (PIIS). • Greater sciatic notch: Converted into superior and inferior parts by piriformis muscle.
Pelvis: Posterior Edge • Lesser sciatic notch. • Ischial spine. • Ischial tuberosity.
Pelvis: Posterior Ligaments • Posterior sacrospinous ligaments. • Sacrotuberous ligaments. • Sacrospinous ligaments. • Figure 3.3.
Pelvis: Medial Surface • Iliac fossa: Attachment surface for iliacus muscle. • Arcuate line. • Auricular surface: Articulates with auricular surface of sacrum. • Pubic symphysis.
Sacrum • Consists of 5 fused vertebrae. • Wing-like processes of each vertebra = alae: For attachment to ilium. • Lip of body of first sacral vertebra = sacral promontory.
Sacrum • Posterior crests (Fig. 4.5): Median crest: Fused spinous processes. Intermediate crests: Fused articular (zygopophyseal) processes. Lateral crests: Fused transverse processes. • Sacral hiatus.
Femur: Proximal Anterior • Head. • Neck. • Greater trochanter. • Lesser trochanter. • Intertrochanteric line: Low ridge connecting two trochanters.
Femur: Proximal Posterior • Head. • Neck. • Greater trochanter. • Lesser trochanter: Projects backwards and medially.
Femur: Proximal Posterior • Intertrochanteric ridge: High ridge connecting two trochanters. Has quadrate tubercle: Partial site of attachment for quadratus femoris muscle.
Femur: Distal Anterior • Medial and lateral condyles. • Medial and lateral epicondyles. • Patellar surface: Smooth, crescent surface between condyles. • Adductor tubercle: Small bump on medial epicondyle. Site of partial attachment of adductor magnus.
Femur: Distal Posterior • Medial and lateral condyles. • Medial and lateral epicondyles. • Popliteal surface: Smooth, triangular surface superior to condyles. • Intercondylar fossa: Forms part of posterior boundary of popliteal fossa.
Femur: Posterior Surface • Linea aspera Lateral boundary: Is a continuation of: Gluteal tuberosity. Inferiorly becomes: Lateral supracondylar line. Medial boundary: Is a continuation of: Pectineal line. Inferiorly becomes: Medial supracondylar line.
Tibia: Anterior Proximal • Medial and lateral condyles. • Tuberosity. • Tubercles of intercondylar eminence.
Tibia: Posterior Proximal • Medial and lateral condyles. • Tubercles of intercondylar eminence. • Articular facet for fibula: On inferior surface of lateral condyle. Soleal line: Shallow, rough ridge curving down from lateral condyle.
Tibia: Distal • Anterior distal surface: Medial malleolus. • Lateral distal surface: Fibular notch.
Fibula • Lies lateral to tibia. • Function: Involved in ankle joint. Muscle attachment. • Proximal end: Head. Apex (styloid process). Articular surface (facet) for lateral condyle of tibia.
Fibula • Distal end: Lateral malleolus: With articular surface for talus. • Note: Both tibia and fibula have interosseous borders: Face each other when the two bones are articulated. Site of attachment of interosseous membrane.
