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 .
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.
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 ...
Muscle Origin Insertion innervation [2] Adductor brevis: Inferior pubic ramus: Medial ridge of linea aspera: Obturator nerve (L2-L4) Adductor longus: Front side of the pubic bone under the pubic tubercle: Medial ridge of linea aspera: Obturator nerve (L2-L4) Adductor magnus: Inferior pubic ramus and ischial tuberosity: Medial ridge of linea ...
It provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, the sartorius muscle, [1] [4] and the tensor fasciae latae muscle. [2] [3] A variety of structures lie close to the anterior superior iliac spine, including the subcostal nerve, [5] the femoral artery (which passes between it and the pubic symphysis), [4] and the iliohypogastric nerve.

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. Also, most adductors originate at the ischiopubic ramus. The fascia of Colles is on attached to its margin.
It marks the lateral boundary of the pelvic outlet. When sitting, the weight is frequently placed upon the ischial tuberosity. [3] The gluteus maximus provides cover in the upright posture, but leaves it free in the seated position. [4] The distance between a cyclist's ischial tuberosities is one of the factors in the choice of a bicycle saddle.
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.
