Transcribed Image Text:**Figure: (a) Lateral and (b) Medial view of the right coxa**
The image consists of two views of the right coxa (hip bone): the lateral view on the left and the medial view on the right. Various anatomical landmarks are labeled with letters.
**Lateral View (a):**
- **A:** Indicates the iliac crest, the uppermost curved ridge of the ilium.
- **B:** Points to the greater sciatic notch, which is a deep notch below the posterior inferior iliac spine.
- **C:** Marks the ischial spine, located between the greater and lesser sciatic notches.
- **D:** Refers to the anterior superior iliac spine, a bony projection at the top of the iliac crest.
- **E:** Shows the acetabulum, the socket in the hip bone that receives the head of the femur.
- **H:** This is the obturator foramen, a large opening created by the ischium and pubis bones.
**Medial View (b):**
- **F:** Labels the iliac fossa, a large, smooth, concave surface on the internal side of the ilium.
- **G:** Exhibits the auricular surface, the part of the ilium that articulates with the sacrum.
- **H:** Again, indicates the obturator foramen.
**Explanation of Diagrams:**
- The diagrams showcase the outer (lateral) and inner (medial) surfaces of the right coxa, highlighting the key structural features and their positions. Each labeled part plays a crucial role in the pelvic structure, attachment of muscles, and articulation with other bones.
