Iliiofemoral Ligament
The iliofemoral ligament is a very strong band that covers the anterior aspect of the hip joint.
It is Y-Shaped and attached proximally to the anterior inferior iliac spine and the acetabular rim.
Pubofemoral Ligament
The pubofemoral ligament arises from the pubic part of the acetabular rim and the iliopublic eminence and blends with the medial part of the iliofemoral ligament
Ishiofemoral Ligament
The ishiofemoral ligament reinforces the fibrous capsule to the hip joint posteriorly.
It arises from the ischial portion of the acetabular rim and spirals superiorlaterally to the neck of the femur, medial to the base of the greater trochanter.
Acetabular Labrum
The depth of the acetabulum is increased by this fibrocartilaginous labrum.
The labrum deepens the socket for the femoral head and its free thin edge clasps the head beyond the widest diameter. This helps to hold it firmly in the acetabulum.
Angle of the Femoral Head
In the transverse plane the relationship between the femoral head and shaft is an angle of 12-15*
