  2. Femoroacetabular impingement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femoroacetabular_impingement

    The hip joint is classified as a ball and socket joint. This type of synovial joint allows for multidirectional movement and rotation. There are two bones that make up the hip joint and create an articulation between the femur and pelvis. This articulation connects the axial skeleton with the lower extremity.

    English: This diagram shows the anatomy of the ball and socket joint found in the hip. A ball and socket joint is a type of synovial joint in which the round surface of one bone fits into a round depression of another bone. 1.) The femur 2.) Femoral neck 3.) Femoral head 4) Acetabulum 5.) Acetabular Labrum 6.) Pelvis.

  4. Head-in-pillow defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-in-pillow_defect

    In the assembly of integrated circuit packages to printed circuit boards, a head-in-pillow defect (HIP or HNP), also called ball-and-socket, [1] is a failure of the soldering process. For example, in the case of a ball grid array (BGA) package, the pre-deposited solder ball on the package and the solder paste applied to the circuit board may ...

  5. Hip dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_dislocation

    Hip dysplasia is a congenital condition in which the hip is deformed in a way that decreases the congruency between the head of the femur and the acetabulum of the pelvis. [22] Bony congruence is a stabilizing factor to the hip joint, so the decrease in this conferred by hip dysplasia makes one more susceptible to dislocation. [22]

  6. Synovial joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synovial_joint

    A multiaxial joint, such as the hip joint, allows for three types of movement: anterior-posterior, medial-lateral, and rotational. A multiaxial joint (polyaxial joint or triaxial joint) is a synovial joint that allows for several directions of movement. [9] In the human body, the shoulder and hip joints are multiaxial joints. [10]

  7. Ball-and-socket joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball-and-socket_joint

    The ball-and-socket joint (or spheroid joint) is a type of synovial joint in which the ball-shaped surface of one rounded bone fits into the cup-like depression of another bone. The distal bone is capable of motion around an indefinite number of axes, which have one common center.

  8. Hip dysplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_dysplasia

    Hip dysplasia is an abnormality of the hip joint where the socket portion does not fully cover the ball portion, resulting in an increased risk for joint dislocation. [1] Hip dysplasia may occur at birth or develop in early life. [1] Regardless, it does not typically produce symptoms in babies less than a year old. [3]

  9. Acetabulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetabulum

    There are three bones of the os coxae (hip bone) that come together to form the acetabulum. Contributing a little more than two-fifths of the structure is the ischium, which provides lower and side boundaries to the acetabulum. The ilium forms the upper boundary, providing a little less than two-fifths of the structure of the acetabulum.
