Hip bone



Hip bone

Names: innominate, irregular, Hip bone.

Bones: ilium ( latin- loin) superiorly , ischium (greek- hip joint) posteroinferiorly, pubis ( latin- genital area) anteroinferiorly.

Joint formation: 
Hip joint - joint between head of femur and acetabulum.
Pubic symphysis - between two hip bone anteriorly.

Site determination: 
1. The acetabulum is directed laterally.
2. Ilium situated superiorly.
3. The obturator foramen lies below the acetabulum.

Anatomical position:
1. The pubic tubercle and anterior superior iliac spine lie in the same coronal plane.

Ilium

Ilium or flank form upper expanded plate like part of hip bone. It forms upper two fifth(2/5) of the acetabulum.

It has...
Three borders: anterior, posterior, medial.
Three surface: gluteal surface, iliac surface or iliac fossa, sacropelvic surface.
One upper end called iliac crest.
One lower end which is smaller and is fused with the pubis and the ischium at the acetabulum.

Iliac crest: 

It is a broad convex ridge forming upper end of the ilium.

The highest point of the iliac crest - it is situated a little behind the mid point of the crest. It lies at the level of interval between the spines of vertebrae L3- L4.


Borders
Anterior border - two prominent parts present here... a. Anterior superior iliac spine.
b. Anterior inferior iliac spine.

Posterior border - it contain two prominent parts and a notch...
a. posterior superior iliac spine.
b. Posterior inferior iliac spine.
c. Greater sciatic notch.

Medial border - it extend inner or pelvic surface of the ilium from the iliac crest to the iliopubic eminence. It separate the iliac fossa from the sacropelvic surface. Its lower part rounded  forms the iliac part of the arcuate line or inlet of pelvis.


Surfaces


Gluteal surface - it is the outer surface of the ilium, which is convex in front and concave behind like the iliac crest.

                    It is divided into four areas by three gluteal line...
a. Posterior gluteal line.
b. Anterior gluteal line.
c. Inferior gluteal line.

Iliac surface - it is the large concave area on the inner surface of the ilium, situated in front of its medial border. It forms the lateral wall of false pelvis.


Sacropelvic surface - it is the uneven area on the inner surface of the ilium, situated bhind the its medial border.

It is subdivided into three parts...
a. Iliac tuberosity - it is the upper larged roughened area.
b. Auricular surface - it is articular but pitted.
c. Pelvic surface - it is smooth and lies anteroinferior to the auricular surface. It forms a part of lateral wall of true pelvis. Along the upper border of greater sciatic notch, this surface is marked by the preauricular sulcus. This sulcus is deeper in female than in male.

Obturator foramen


1. This is a large gap in the hip bone, situated anteroinferior to the acetabulum, between the pubis and the ischium.

Ossification 

It 's ossification is cartilaginous from three primary and five secondary centre. Complete bone ossified till 20-25 year of age.
