Appendicular pt 2 Flashcards
Markings along the. Margin of the ilium that provide attachment points for muscles and ligaments
Lliac spines
Large notch on the posterior side that allows for the passage of the sciatic nerve
Greater sciatic notch
Ridge line on the medial surface
Accurate line
Upper brim of ilium
Lliac crest
Depression between iliac crest and accurate line, which helps support the abdominal organs
Lliac fossa
Smaller notch that allows for the passage of blood vessels, nerves, and smaller muscles
Lesser sciatic notch
Protects superior to the lesser sciatic notch
Ischial spine
Roughened projection on the posterior lateral edge supports body weight when sitting
Ischial tuberosity
Ischial ramus
Branch of the ischium treat meets the inferior pubic ramus
Inferior branch of the pubis that meets the ischial ramus
Inferior pubic ramus
Superior branch of the pubis which meets the inferior pubic ramus anteriorly
Superior pubic ramus
Stabilized by ligaments of the pelvic girdle, sacrum and lumbar vertebrae
Pelvis
Is a Narrower, rougher, and more robust, narrower pelvic outlet, oval obturator foramen, pubic angle of 90 degrees or less a male or female pelvis
Male pelvis
Is Broader, smoother, and lighter , wider pelvic outlet, triangular obturator foramen, pubic angle of 100 degrees or more a female or male pelvis
Female pelvis
What is the longest heaviest bone in the body
Femur
What articulates with the hip bone at the acetabulum and with the tibia at the knee joint
Femur head
Small put in the center of the head attaches to the acetabulum via ligament
Fovea capitis
Connects the head to the shaft comes in at an angle of about 125 degrees
Neck femur
Large rough projection at the junction of the neck and shat which projects laterally
Greater trochanter- femur
Smaller, rough projection at junction of neck and shaft which projects medically and posteriorly
Lesser trochanters- femur
Between the trochanters on the anterior surface
Intertrochanteric line -femur
Between the trochanters on the posterior surface
Intertrochanteric crest-femur
Central ridge along the posterior surface of the shaft
Linea aspera- femur
Sideways projections above the condyle of the knee joint
Medial and lateral epicondyles
