3 - Kines - Unit 3 - Pelvis & Thigh Flashcards
Pelvis and thighs - 8 Bones
1 - Coxal / innovate bone (hip bone) - x2 2 - Sacrum - x1 3 - Coccyx (tail bone) - x1 4 - Femur (thigh bone) - x2 5 - Patella (kneecap) - x2
Pelvis and thighs - Bones - Pelvis
3 bones
- 2 coxal bones (hip) - sometimes referred as «pelvic bones»
- Sacrum
Pelvis and thighs - Bones - Coxal bone (hip) development
Starts out as 3 separate bones :
- Ilium - Big flat piece
- Ischium - Butt bone
- Pubis - Up front
The 3 bones eventually fuse together to form coxal bone
Pelvis and thighs - Landmarks
1 - Coxal (starts as Ilium, ischium & pubis) 2 - Sacrum 3 - Coccyx 4 - Femur 5 - Patella
