  2. Pubis (bone) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pubis_(bone)

    a pubic tubercle at the lateral end of the pubic crest; three surfaces (anterior, posterior and medial). The body forms the wide, strong, middle and flat part of the pubic bone. The bodies of the left and right pubic bones join at the pubic symphysis. [1] The rough upper edge is the pubic crest, [2] ending laterally in the pubic tubercle.

  3. Pubic crest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pubic_crest

    Medial to the pubic tubercle is the pubic crest, which extends from this process to the medial end of the pubic bone. It gives attachment to the conjoint tendon , the rectus abdominis , the abdominal external oblique muscle , and the pyramidalis muscle .

  4. Pubic tubercle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pubic_tubercle

    The pubic tubercle is a prominent forward-projecting tubercle on the upper border of the medial portion of the superior ramus of the pubis bone. The inguinal ligament attaches to it. [1] Part of the abdominal external oblique muscle inserts onto it. [1] The inferior epigastric artery passes between the pubic tubercle and the anterior superior ...

  5. Hip bone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_bone

    The pubic region or pubis is the ventral and anterior of the three parts forming the hip bone. It is divisible into a body, a superior ramus, and an inferior ramus. The body forms one-fifth of the acetabulum. The body forms the wide, strong, medial and flat portion of the pubic bone which unites with the other pubic bone in the pubic symphysis. [3]

  6. Phenice method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenice_method

    Phenice describes the ventral arc as ‘a slightly elevated ridge of bone which extends from the pubic crest and arcs inferiorly across the ventral surface to the lateral most extension of the subpubic concavity… where it blends with the medial border of the ischio-pubic ramus.’

  7. Adductor muscles of the hip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adductor_muscles_of_the_hip

    Inferior pubic ramus and ischial tuberosity: Medial ridge of linea aspera and the adductor tubercle: Obturator nerve and tibial nerve (L2-L5) Adductor minimus: Inferior pubic ramus: Medial ridge of linea aspera: Obturator nerve [3] Pectineus: Pectineal line (pubis) Pectineal line: Femoral nerve and sometimes the obturator nerve (L2-L4) Gracilis ...

  8. Pectineal line (pubis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pectineal_line_(pubis)

    The pectineal line of the pubis (also pecten pubis) is a ridge on the superior ramus of the pubic bone. It forms part of the pelvic brim. Lying across from the pectineal line are fibers of the pectineal ligament, and the proximal origin of the pectineus muscle. [1] In combination with the arcuate line, it makes the iliopectineal line. [2]

  9. Acetabulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetabulum

    There are three bones of the os coxae (hip bone) that come together to form the acetabulum. Contributing a little more than two-fifths of the structure is the ischium, which provides lower and side boundaries to the acetabulum. The ilium forms the upper boundary, providing a little less than two-fifths of the structure of the acetabulum.
