Q

Acetabular notch

A
  • The acetabular notch is a deep notch in the acetabulum of the hip bone. - Continuous with the circular non-articular depression (acetabular fossa) at the bottom of the cavity
  • Contains a mass of fat and allows passage of acetabular ligament, nutreint vessels and nerves
  • The margins of the notch serve as the attachment for the ligament of the head of the femur
