	Pubis (bone) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The pubic bone is the ventral and anterior of the three principal bones composing either half of the pelvis.
		In the female, the pubic bone is anterior to the urethral sponge.
		The upper border presents a prominent tubercle, the pubic tubercle (pubic spine), which projects forward; the inferior crus of the subcutaneous inguinal ring (external abdominal ring), and the inguinal ligament (Poupart’s ligament) are attached to it.

	Chapter 12: THE BONES OF THE LOWER LIMB
		The terminology of the hip bone is based on the anatomical position, in which the articular surface of the pubic symphysis is in a sagittal plane and the pubic tubercle and anterior superior iliac spine are in the same coronal plane.
		In the anatomical position, the pubic tubercles and the anterior superior iliac spines are all in the same coronal plane.
		On the inferior aspect of the superior pubic ramus, the obturator crest extends from the pubic tubercle to the acetabular notch.

		The inguinal ligament is in the groin and extends from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle.
		Its inferior edge extends from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle and is known as the inguinal ligament.
		Lateral to the pubic tubercle, the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle divides into medial and lateral crura, which diverge to form the superficial inguinal ring.

	AMTA > Anatomical and Biochemical considerations related to assessment of Pelvic Dysfunction
		The pubic symphysis is considered to be the most stable joint in the pelvis, and moves in reaction to forces placed across the joint, rather than by direct muscle action.
		Inferiorly, adductor longus originates from a flat tendon attaching to the pubic body, gracilis and adductor brevis originate from the inferior pubic body and inferior pubic ramus, and adductor magnus from the inferior pubic and ischeal ramus plus the ischeal tuberosity.
		anterior /posterior rotation of the pubic rami occurs as a response to innominate anterior and posterior rotation e.g.

		Utility of dorsal pits and pubic tubercle height in parity assessment.
		In this study, the relationships of dorsal pits and pubic tubercle elongation to parity are investigated in a sample of 148 modern female sets of pubic bones with associated birth information.
		The elongation of the pubic tubercle shows no significant correlation with number of births, but instead is associated with the distance this feature is from the pubic symphysis (p < 0.01) and the size of the arcuate angle (p < 0.05).

		A robust antitrochanter is present on the acetabular wall and the pubic symphysis is limited to the distal portion of the pubes.

		On examination, he was tender to palpation over the pubic symphysis and along the origin of the adductor muscles from the inferior pubic ramus.
		Radiographs of the pelvis were essentially normal, with the exception of a slight asymmetry of the pubic symphysis.
		Typically, maximal tenderness at the pubic tubercle on the involved side is a reliable sign to diagnose sports hernia, although other potential areas of tenderness include the posterior or lateral inguinal canal.

		Such obstetric factors as parity status, number of births, age at first and last births and birth spacing have been examined in relation to the presence or absence of the preauricular sulcus, its type and size, pubic pitting, sacral scarring and the extension of the pubic tubercle.
		The results suggest that the preauricular sulcus and sacral scarring are independent of obstetric events and that although the small numbers of females with more than one pubic pit or an extended pubic tubercle had born children, the absence of these features is associated with both parous and nulliparous females.
		Unlike previous studies, both localised cortical resorption and tubercle extension were evaluated as a component part of the obstetric pelvis.
