  2. Iliac crest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliac_crest

    A fracture of the left iliac wing. The iliac crest has a large amount of red bone marrow, and thus it is the site of bone marrow harvests (from both sides) to collect the stem cells used in bone marrow transplantation. The iliac crest is also considered the best donor site for bone grafting when a large quantity of bone is needed. For example ...

  3. Wing of ilium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_of_ilium

    The internal surface of the ala is bounded above by the crest, below, by the arcuate line; in front and behind, by the anterior and posterior borders. It presents a large, smooth, concave surface, called the iliac fossa, which gives origin to the iliacus and is perforated at its inner part by a nutrient canal; and below this a smooth, rounded ...

  4. Gluteal lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluteal_lines

    The anterior gluteal line is the middle curved gluteal line on the hip bone. It is the longest of the three gluteal lines, begins at the iliac crest, about 4 cm. behind its anterior extremity, and, taking a curved direction downward and backward, ends at the upper part of the greater sciatic notch.

  5. Iliac fossa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iliac_fossa

    The iliac fossa is bounded above by the iliac crest, and below by the arcuate line. It is bordered in front and behind by the anterior and posterior borders of the ilium. The iliac fossa gives origin to the iliacus muscle. [1] The obturator nerve passes around the iliac fossa. [2] It is perforated at its inner part by a nutrient canal.

    The greater sciatic notch is a notch in the ilium, one of the bones that make up the human pelvis.It lies between the posterior inferior iliac spine (above), and the ischial spine (below).

  8. Lumbar plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbar_plexus

    The iliohypogastric nerve runs posterior to the psoas major on its proximal lateral border to run laterally and obliquely on the anterior side of quadratus lumborum.Lateral to this muscle, it pierces the transversus abdominis to run above the iliac crest between that muscle and abdominal internal oblique.

  9. Supracristal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supracristal_Plane

    Supracristal plane (Planum supracristale) (or supracrestal plane) is an anatomical transverse plane lying at the upper most part of the pelvis, the iliac crest. This is usually at the level of the L4 vertebrae. [1] It passes through the umbilical region and the left and right lumbar regions.
