At the lower part of the acetabulum is the acetabular notch, which is continuous with a circular depression, the acetabular fossa, at the bottom of the cavity of the acetabulum. The rest of the acetabulum is formed by a curved, crescent-moon shaped surface, the lunate surface, where the joint is made with the head of the femur.
The body enters into and constitutes a little more than two-fifths of the acetabulum. Its external surface forms part of the lunate surface of the acetabulum and a portion of the acetabular fossa. Its internal surface is part of the wall of the lesser pelvis; it gives origin to some fibers of the internal obturator. No muscles insert on the body.
In flatworms, acetabulum is the ventral sucker situated towards the anterior part of the body, but behind the anterior oral sucker. It is composed of numerous spines for penetrating and gripping the host tissue. The location and structure of the acetabulum, and the pattern of the spine alignment are important diagnostic tool among trematode ...
3D model of human hip bone. The ischium forms the lower and back part of the hip bone and is located below the ilium and behind the pubis. The ischium is the strongest of the three regions that form the hip bone. It is divisible into three portions: the body, the superior ramus, and the inferior ramus. The body forms approximately one-third of ...
The acetabular notch is a deep [citation needed] notch in the inferior portion of the rim of the acetabulum. [ 1 ] : 1354 It is bridged by the transverse acetabular ligament , converting it into a foramen (through which nerves and vessels (including the acetabular notch of obturator artery [ 1 ] : 1250 ) pass into the hip joint cavity).
The acetabular fossa is the non-articular depressed region at the centre of the floor of the acetabulum. It is surrounded by the articular lunate surface . [ 1 ] : 1368 [ 2 ] The floor of the fossa is formed mostly by the ischium ; [ 2 ] it is rough [ 1 ] : 1354 and thin (often to the point of transparency).
From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
The lunate surface of acetabulum is the articular surface of the acetabulum which makes contact with the femoral head as part of the hip joint. It forms an incomplete ring that is deficient inferiorly - opposite the acetabular notch .
