    The severity of symptoms of damage to the iliohypogastric nerve can show whether damage occurred above or below the anterior superior iliac spine. [6] Bone may be harvested from the nearby iliac crest for use elsewhere in the body. [5] As the subcostal nerve lies close to the anterior superior iliac spine, this is put at risk of damage. [5]

    An aponeurosis (/ ˌ æ p ə nj ʊəˈr oʊ s ɪ s /; pl.: aponeuroses) is a flattened tendon [1] by which muscle attaches to bone or fascia. [2] Aponeuroses exhibit an ordered arrangement of collagen fibres, thus attaining high tensile strength in a particular direction while being vulnerable to tensional or shear forces in other directions.

    The iliocostalis originates from the sacrum, erector spinae aponeurosis, and iliac crest. The iliocostalis has three different insertions according to the parts: iliocostalis lumborum has the lumbar part (where its insertion is in the 12th to 7th ribs). iliocostalis thoracis where its insertion runs from the last 6 ribs to the first 6 ribs.

  8. Inguinal ligament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inguinal_ligament

    The inguinal ligament runs from the anterior superior iliac crest of the ilium to the pubic tubercle of the pubic bone. It is formed by the external abdominal oblique aponeurosis and is continuous with the fascia lata of the thigh. There is some dispute over the attachments. [3] Structures that pass deep to the inguinal ligament include:

  9. Sartorius muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sartorius_muscle

    The sartorius muscle originates from the anterior superior iliac spine, [4] and part of the notch between the anterior superior iliac spine and anterior inferior iliac spine. It runs obliquely across the upper and anterior part of the thigh in an inferomedial direction. [3] It passes behind the medial condyle of the femur to end in a tendon.
