The ischial tuberosity (or tuberosity of the ischium, tuber ischiadicum), also known colloquially as the sit bones or sitz bones, [1] or as a pair the sitting bones, [2] is a large posterior bony protuberance on the superior ramus of the ischium. It marks the lateral boundary of the pelvic outlet.
A small part of bone with a piece of a tendon or ligament attached is avulsed (torn away). [3] Ischial bursitis (also known as weaver's bottom) is inflammation of the synovial bursa located between the gluteus maximus muscle and the ischial tuberosity, [4] and is usually caused by prolonged sitting on a hard surface.
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 ...
The ischiopubic ramus is a compound structure consisting of the following two structures: from the pubis, the bones inferior pubic ramus; from the ischium, the inferior ramus of the ischium; It forms the inferior border of the obturator foramen and serves as part of the origin for the obturator internus and externus muscles.

The traumatic bone cyst, also referred to as a simple bone cyst or hemorrhagic cyst, is a pseudocyst that most commonly affects the mandible of young individuals. It is a benign empty or fluid-containing cavity within the mandible body that does not have evidence of a true epithelial lining.
[1] [2] It is attached to the inferior pubic ramus and ischium, and at the side to the inner surface of the hip bone below and behind the pelvic brim. [1] It reaches from the upper part of the greater sciatic foramen above and behind to the obturator foramen below and in front. [1] It also arises from the pelvic surface of the obturator ...
The superior pubic ramus is a part of the pubic bone which forms a portion of the obturator foramen. It extends from the body to the median plane where it articulates with its fellow of the opposite side. It is conveniently described in two portions: a medial flattened part and a narrow lateral prismoid portion. The inferior pubic ramus is thin ...
