Ligaments of the hip

iliofemoral ligament, pubofemoral ligament ,ischiofemoral ligament ,iliotibial band, and inguinal ligament
Iliofemoral ligament
most important ligament, limits extension and hyper extension of the hip, known as the "Y" ligament or ligament of bigelow. It re-enforces the hip joint capsule anteriorly. Attaches to the A.S.I.S., splits in to 2 then attaches to the inter tro canteric line of the femur
Pubofemoral ligament
Limits abduction and hyper extension of the hip, spans the hip joint medially and inferiorly, attaches from medial part of acetabular rim andsuperior ramus of pubis

Ischiofemoral ligament

Limits hyper extension and medial rotation of the hip, covers the hip capsule posteriorly, attaches on the ischial portion of the acetabulum, crossesthe joint laterally and superiorly, then attaches on the femoral neck

Inguinal ligament

separates the abdominal wall from the thigh. No function at the hip

Ligaments of the pelvis

anterior sacroiliac, short posterior sacroiliac, long posterior sacroiliac, sacrotuberous, sacrospinous, iliolumbar, lumbrosacral, inferiorpubic, superior pubic, interoseus

Anterior sacroilliac ligament

broad and flat, on the anterior pelvic surface,connects the ala and pelvic surface of the sacrum, to the auricular surface of the ilium. Holds together the anterior portion

Interoseous sacroiliac ligament
The deepest, shortest and strongest. Fills roughened area above and behind auricular surfaces. Connects tuberosities of the ilium and the sacrum
Short posterior sacroiliac ligament
runs more obliquely between the ilium and the upper portion of the sacrum onthe dorsal surface
Long posterior sacroiliac ligament
runs vertically between the posterior superior iliac spine and the lower portion of the sacrum
sacrotuberous ligament
very strong,triangular shaped, runs from between P. S. I. S and P.I.I.S. of the ilium. Attaches on the ischial tuberosity. Serves as an attachment for the gluteus maximus. Prevents forward rotation of the sacrum
Sacrospinous ligament

triangular shaped. Lies deep to the sacrotuberous ligament. Broad attachment from lower lateral sacrum and coccyx on the posterior side. Then narrows and attaches to the spine of the ischium.

illiolumbar ligament



help holds the lumbosacral joint together, attaches on the transverse processes of L5 and runs laterally to the inner lip of the posterior portion of the iliac crest. Limits rotation of L5 on S1 and assists in preventing L5 from moving anteriorly on S1

Lumbosacral ligament



attaches on the transvers process of L5, runs inferiorly and laterally to attach on the ala of the sacrum



Companion motions of the pelvic girdle:


Anterior tilt of the pelvis

Spinal motion: Hyperextension, Increased lumbar lordosis


Hip motion: Flexion

Companion motions of the pelvic girdle:


Posterior tilt of pelvic girdle

Spinal motion: Flexion, Decreased lumbar lordosis


Hip motion: Extension

Companion movements of the pelvic girdle:


Lateral tilt of the pelvic girdle unsupported side

Spinal motion: lateral sidebending to supported side


Hip motion: Non weight bearing side, Abduction


Weight bearing side, Adduction

Companion movements of the pelvic girdle: Pelvic forward rotation

Spinal motion: rotation to opposite side


Hip motion: Medial rotation on weight bearing side



Companion movements of the pelvic girdle: Pelvic backward rotation

Spinal motion: rotation to opposite side


Hip motion: Lateral rotation on weight bearing side

Force couple at the pelvis: Anterior tilt

The lumbar trunk extensors (erector spinae) pull UP posteriorly and the hip flexors pull DOWN anteriorly

Force couple at the pelvis: Posterior tilt

The abdominals pull UP anteriorly and the gluteus maximus and hamstrings pull DOWN posteriorly

Force couple at the pelvis: Lateral tilt

The unsupported side lateral benders pull UP, while the supported side hip abductors pull DOWN
