11 wrz 2023 · Femur anatomy is so unique that it makes the bone suitable for supporting the numerous muscular and ligamentous attachments within this region, in addition to maximally extending the limb during ambulation. Proximally, the femur articulates with the pelvic bone. Distally, it interacts with the patella and the proximal aspect of the tibia.

3 lis 2023 · The bony framework of the pelvis, called the pelvic girdle, is comprised of two hip bones, the sacrum and the coccyx. The hip bone is made by fusion of three bones; ilium, ischium and pubis. The hip bones articulate with themselves via pubic symphysis, and with the sacrum via the sacroiliac joint.
21 sty 2022 · The hip joint is a ball and socket synovial joint, formed by an articulation between the pelvic acetabulum and the head of the femur. It forms a connection from the lower limb to the pelvic girdle, and thus is designed for stability and weight-bearing – rather than a large range of movement.
17 lis 2023 · The apical ectodermal ridge of the limb bud induces limb growth and development. The lateral plate somatic mesoderm of the lower limb bud gives rise to the femur, which develops from endochondral ossification, in which bone replaces hyaline cartilage models.
30 paź 2024 · Explore the anatomy, function, and role of the bones of the pelvis and lower back with Innerbody's 3D model. The bones of the pelvis and lower back work together to support the body's weight, anchor the abdominal and hip muscles, and protect the delicate vital organs of the vertebral and abdominopelvic cavities.
30 paź 2023 · Bones, ligaments, movements, blood supply and innervation of the hip joint. The hip joint is a ball and socket type of synovial joint that connects the pelvic girdle to the lower limb. In this joint, the head of the femur articulates with the acetabulum of the pelvic (hip) bone.
23 sty 2018 · The pelvis forms the base of the spine as well as the socket of the hip joint. The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint created by the femur and a part of the pelvis called the acetabulum.
