What is the bony landmark recognized by a distinct dimple in the skin?
posterior superior iliac spineposterior superior iliac spine.
What muscle originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine of the hip and inserts onto the proximal end of the tibia?
The muscle that originates from the anterior inferior iliac spine of the hip and inserts onto the proximal end of the tibia is the sartorius muscle. This muscle is the longest muscle in the body and is responsible for flexing, abducting, and laterally rotating the hip joint, as well as flexing the knee joint.
Is the throacic spine medial to the scaplulae?
The trachea is not medial to the spine. Both structures are at the midline, and neither is more medial than the other.
Where Is anterior?
"Anterior" refers to the front of the body or structure, while "posterior" refers to the back. In human anatomy, the heart is located anterior to the spine, for example.
What are the longest and most slender muscle?
The sartorius muscle is considered the longest muscle in the human body. It runs from the hip to the inner side of the knee. The gracilis muscle, located in the inner thigh, is one of the most slender muscles in the body.
When you put your hands on your hips you are touching the of a coxal bone?
The iliac crest
Which surface features along the ilium marks attachment sites for large hip muscles?
The iliac crest, anterior superior iliac spine, and posterior superior iliac spine are surface features along the ilium that mark attachment sites for large hip muscles like the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus.
What is the point of the pelvis protruding out anteriorly just above your thigh?
anterior superior iliac spine
What pulse is found on the inner thigh?
Femoral pulse: located in the inner thigh, at the mid-inguinal point, halfway between the pubic symphysis and anterior superior iliac spine (femoral artery). (from Wikipedia)

What is the borders of inguinal region?
The inguinal region is bordered superiorly by the inguinal ligament, inferiorly by the junction of the thigh and pelvis, medially by the pubic symphysis, and laterally by the anterior superior iliac spine.
What part of the body is the appendix located?
Lower, right abdomen, but a small percent of people have it on their left side. It is located approximately where you finger would be if you inserted your hand in the front pocket of your blue jeans.
What are the upper pelvic bones called?
Ilium - you have one either side of your midline. The continue from the sacrum at the back to the pubis at the front. The uppermost part is called the iliac crest. You can normally feel the Anterior Superior Iliac spine as your front "hip bone" and the Posterior Superior Iliac spine as your rear "hip bone" - they are different parts of the same continuous bone.
Where does the sartorius connect?
The sartorius muscle connects the anterior superior iliac spine of the pelvis to the medial surface of the tibia, in the lower leg. It is the longest muscle in the human body and helps with flexing, abducting, and rotating the hip joint.
What muscle originates at the anterior superior iliac spine and crosses both hip and knee joints?
The muscle that originate from ASIS is sartorius muscle. Inguinal ligament also originate here. By Binaisa Deus medical student KIU Uganda
What is enthesophyte formation at the ASIS and AIIS bilaterally?
Enthesophyte formation at the ASIS and AIIS bilaterally refers to the development of bony growths at the attachment sites of muscles and tendons on the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) of the pelvis. This is a common finding in individuals with degenerative changes or repetitive stress at these areas, and may be associated with conditions like hip impingement or osteoarthritis. Treatment options may include managing pain and inflammation, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery.
WHICH BONES DOES THE SARTORIUS MUSCLE ATTACH?
The sartorius muscle attaches to the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) of the pelvis at its origin and inserts onto the medial aspect of the tibia at the pes anserinus. This muscle runs diagonally across the thigh, contributing to hip and knee movements.
