PSIS + Lateral Sacrum to ischial tuberosity
What are the attachments of the sacrospinous lig.
From lat. sacrum to Ischial spine
Iliofemoral lig. Attachments
Anterior inferior illiac spine to the intertrochanteric line of the femur
Function of the iliofemoral ligament
limits extension IR, ER of the femur on the acetabulum
Pubofemoral lig. attachments
From the illiopubic emenence and superior pubic ramus to fibrous capsule
Function of the pubofemoral lig.
Limits abduction of the femur
What are the attachments of the ischiofemoral lig.
