  2. Ischial tuberosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischial_tuberosity

    The tuberosity is divided into two portions: a lower, rough, somewhat triangular part, and an upper, smooth, quadrilateral portion. The lower portion is subdivided by a prominent longitudinal ridge, passing from base to apex, into two parts: The outer gives attachment to the adductor magnus; The inner to the sacrotuberous ligament

  3. Sacrotuberous ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrotuberous_ligament

    It runs from the sacrum (the lower transverse sacral tubercles, the inferior margins sacrum and the upper coccyx [1]) to the tuberosity of the ischium. It is a remnant of part of biceps femoris muscle. The sacrotuberous ligament is attached by its broad base to the posterior superior iliac spine, the posterior sacroiliac ligaments (with which ...

  4. Ischium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischium

    Below, it is bounded by a sharp ridge that provides attachment to a falciform prolongation of the sacrotuberous ligament, and, more anteriorly, gives origin to the transverse perineal and ischiocavernosus muscles. Posteriorly the ramus forms a large swelling, the tuberosity of the ischium, where the hamstrings originate.

  5. Adductor magnus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adductor_magnus_muscle

    The adductor magnus is a large triangular muscle, situated on the medial side of the thigh.. It consists of two parts. The portion which arises from the ischiopubic ramus (a small part of the inferior ramus of the pubis, and the inferior ramus of the ischium) is called the pubofemoral portion, adductor portion, or adductor minimus, and the portion arising from the tuberosity of the ischium is ...

  6. Biceps femoris tendon rupture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_femoris_tendon_rupture

    If the athlete is fatigued or has not warmed up properly he/she may suffer a hamstring strain/rupture, which is the tearing of the hamstring muscle. Avulsion of the biceps femoris tendon is the complete pulling away of the tendon from the bone. This most commonly occurs where the long head attaches to the ischial tuberosity.

  7. Hamstring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamstring

    Muscles should originate from ischial tuberosity. Muscles should be inserted over the knee joint, in the tibia or in the fibula. Muscles will be innervated by the tibial branch of the sciatic nerve. Muscle will participate in flexion of the knee joint and extension of the hip joint.

  8. Ischial spine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischial_spine

    The ischial spine is part of the posterior border of the body of the ischium bone of the pelvis. It is a thin and pointed triangular eminence, more or less elongated ...
