Illustrations of the bones and ligaments of the female pelvis and the hip joint, seen from behind (upper) and from below (lower). The pelvic bones left and right are bound to the central sacrum by strong ligaments. The lower figure shows the pelvic outlet. The articulation of the femur (thigh bone) with the pelvis is stabilized by strong ligaments both at the front and behind. From Sobotta, J. (1904) Atlas der deskriptiven Anatomie des Menschen. Vol 1, Knochen, Bander, Gelenke, und Muskeln. J. F. Lehmann, Munchen (Figs. 207, 208).
