The iliac tubercle is located approximately 5 cm (2 in) posterior to the anterior superior iliac spine on the iliac crest in humans. [1] The transverse plane that includes each of the tubercles (one from the left iliac tubercle and one from the right iliac tubercle) is called the transtubercular plane .
It is thinner at the center than at the extremities, and ends in the anterior and posterior superior iliac spines. The surface of the crest is broad, and divided into external and internal lips, and an intermediate line. About 5 cm behind the anterior superior iliac spine there is a prominent tubercle on the outer lip.
The iliac tuberosity is part of the anatomy of the ilium portion of the hip bone. Behind the iliac fossa is a rough surface, divided into two portions, an anterior and a posterior. [ 1 ] The posterior portion, the iliac tuberosity , is elevated and rough, for the attachment of the posterior sacroiliac ligaments and for the origins of the ...
It refers to the anterior extremity of the iliac crest of the pelvis. It provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, and the sartorius muscle. [1] The tensor fasciae latae muscle attaches to the lateral aspect of the superior anterior iliac spine, and also about 5 cm away at the iliac tubercle. [2] [3]
The posterior inferior iliac spine (Sweeney's Tubercle) is an anatomical landmark that describes a bony "spine", or projection, at the posterior and inferior surface of the iliac bone. It is one of two such spines on the posterior surface, the other being the posterior superior iliac spine. These two spines are separated by a bony notch.
The ilium (/ ˈ ɪ l i ə m /) (pl.: ilia) is the uppermost and largest region of the coxal bone, and appears in most vertebrates including mammals and birds, but not bony fish.All reptiles have an ilium except snakes, although some snake species have a tiny bone which is considered to be an ilium.
The anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) is a bony eminence on the anterior border of the hip bone, or, more precisely, the wing of the ilium. Structure.
