| This tilting of the pelvis is effected by the gluteal muscles, which connect the ilium of the hip bone to the lower limb. |
| The sacroiliac ligament is a strong interosseous connection between the sacrum and ilium on the posterior surface. |
| The acetabulum is a hemispherical socket formed in the os coxae of a newborn where the ilium, ischium, and pubis bones come together. |
| The sacroiliac joints and the anterior superior spines of os ilium are seen in this cut. |
| The iliacus muscle, sharing a tendon with the psoas at the lesser trocanter, fans up and opens, lining the inside of each ilium. |
| The pelvic component of the hip joint is called the acetabulum, which has contributions from the ischium, ilium and pubis. |
