The iliofemoral ligament is a thick and very tough triangular capsular ligament of the hip joint situated anterior to this joint.

A teardrop-shaped lower portion gives origin to the iliofemoral ligament of the hip joint and borders the rim of the acetabulum. [ 1 ] Anteromedially and inferiorly to the AIIS is the iliopsoas groove , the passage for the iliopsoas muscle as it passes down to the lesser trochanter of the femur .
The capsule of hip joint, articular capsule, or capsular ligament is strong and dense attachment of the hip joint.. Anterosuperiorly, it is attached to the margin of the acetabulum 5 to 6 mm. beyond the labrum behind; but in front, it is attached to the outer margin of the labrum, and, opposite to the notch where the margin of the cavity is deficient, it is connected to the transverse ligament ...
