Describe the structures responsible for the stability of the hip joint
a) Pubofemoral ligament
b) Iliofemoral ligament
c) Ischiofemoral ligament
a) Pubofemoral ligament: limits extension, lateral rotation, abduction
b) Iliofemoral ligament: limits extension mostly
c) Ischiofemoral ligament: limits extension, medial rotation, adduction
