THE HIP JOINT (ARTICULATIO COXiE) The hip joint is of the enarthrodial variety. It comprises the headof the femur and the acetabular cavity of the hip bone. The labrum glenoidale, or cotyloid ligament is a C-shaped mass offibrocartilage that is attached to the rim of the acetabular cavityto deepen it and to make it narrower. The gap is at the acetabularnotch and here the two ends of the labrum are connected by thetransverse ligament (lig. transversarum acetahidi). This ligamentconverts the notch into a foramen through which the vessels andnerves pass into and out of the acetabular cavity. The inner surfaceof the labrum is articular. The capsule is a hollow cyhnder. It is attached, , tothe labrum glenoidale and the transverse ligament and the adjoin-ing bone; distally, it is attached, above, to the medial aspect of the 132 SYNDESMOLOGY.
