- Common Iliac Artery. The common iliac artery is located just to the left side of the body of the fourth lumbar vertebra, where the abdominal aorta divides into two arteries.

Ilium (bone) The ilium (/ˈɪlɪəm/) is the uppermost and largest bone of the pelvis, and appears in most vertebrates including mammals and birds, but not bony fish. All reptiles have an ilium except snakes, although some snake species have a tiny bone which is considered to be an ilium.he name comes from the Latin (ile, ilis), meaning groin or flank.. The ilium of the human is divisible into two parts, the body and the ala; the separation is indicated on the top surface by a curved line, the arcuate line, and on the external surface by the margin of the acetabulum.

Psoas major The psoas major is a lengthy fusiform (or ‘spindle-shaped’) muscle that can be found on the side of the lumbar region of the vertebral column. It is also adjacent to the brim of the lesser pelvis area. It connects the iliacus muscle to the iliopsosas. In some individuals, the muscle is assisted by the psoas minor. The muscle is divided into two parts; it has both a superficial part and a deep part.

Iliopsoas The muscle is lined with iliopsoas fascia, which surrounds the psoas major muscle as it passes below the medial arcuate ligament. The dorsal hip muscle then combines with the iliac fascia to continue as the inguinal ligament.

Iliac artery Iliac artery. Introduction. The blood supply to the body arises from the aorta, the main outflow of the left ventricle of the heart. The abdominal aorta gives rise to two common iliac arteries at its termination, which then further divide into the external and internal iliac arteries.

Pelvic And Abdominal Computerized Axial Tomography A computerized axial tomography scan is also called a CT scan or a CAT scan. A pelvic CT scan takes pictures of your pelvis (the area between your hips). An abdominal CT takes pictures of your abdomen. A CT scan uses x-rays to look at bones, muscles, body organs, and blood vessels. Each picture, also called a slice, shows a few layers of your body tissue on a computer or TV-like screen. Your caregiver may do a CT scan of your abdomen and your pelvis at the same time.

iliac bone il·i·um. The broad, flaring portion of the hip bone, distinct at birth but later becoming fused with the ischium and pubis; it consists of a body, which joins the pubis and ischium to form the acetabulum and a broad thin portion, called the ala or wing. Synonym(s): iliac bone. [L. groin, flank].

- We're sorry, an error occurred. The iliacus muscle is found in the lower portion of the trunk, covered in a thick fascia (connective tissue). This muscle is shaped like a triangle, flat, and an exact fit of the iliac fossa — the curved surface of the largest pelvic bone.

- The term iliopsoas (ilio-so-as) refers to the combination of the psoas major and the iliacus at their inferior ends. These muscles are distinct in the abdomen, but usually indistinguishable in the thigh.

Common Iliac Lymph Nodes Common Iliac Lymph Nodes: Common Iliac lymph nodes are glands that are a part of the immune system and are located in the lower abdomen and pelvic areas. Common iliac lymph nodes consist of lymphatic tissues enclosed by a fibrous capsule. They contain scavenging white blood cells that fight infection and act as filters that strain out potentially harmful pathogens and microorganisms from lymph fluid that has drained from the internal and external iliac nodes.

Internal iliac artery The exact arrangement of branches of the internal iliac artery is variable. Generally, the artery divides into an anterior division and a posterior division, with the posterior division giving rise to the superior gluteal, iliolumbar, and lateral sacral arteries.

Iliac crest The iliac crest stretches posteriorly from the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) to the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS).Behind the ASIS, it divides into an outer and inner lip separated by the intermediate zone. The outer lip bulges laterally into the iliac tubercle.he iliac crest has a large amount of red bone marrow, and thus it is the site of bone marrow harvests (from both sides) to collect the stem cells used in bone marrow transplantation.

Iliac Crest The Iliac Crest skinfold is one of the commonest regions used to assess the amount of body fat in athletes. The top of the hip bone or the area just above the crest is checked for body fat examination. The arm adjacent to the crest should be kept away from the body to help in measuring Iliac Crest waist circumference.

Iliac Crest The iliac crest is the margin of the ileum. It is a curved, broad structure made to protect the insides of the pelvic region. It serves as an attachment of muscles, aponeurosis, and fascia of the nearby structures [1]. The iliac crest is in the middle of anterior and posterior superior iliac spines. The highest part of the iliac crest is at the level of L4 vertebra. The iliac tubercle lies 2 inches behind the anterior superior iliac spine and is at the level of the L5 vertebra [2].

- There are five muscles in the posterior abdominal wall: the iliacus, psoas major, psoas minor, quadratus lumborum and the diaphragm.liacus. The iliacus muscle is a fan-shaped muscle that is situated inferiorly on the posterior abdominal wall. It combines with the psoas major to form the iliopsoas – the major flexor of the thigh. 1  Attachments: Originates from surface of the iliac fossa and anterior inferior iliac spine.

Anterior superior iliac spine The anterior superior iliac spine (abbreviated: ASIS) is a bony projection of the iliac bone and an important landmark of surface anatomy. It refers to the anterior extremity of the iliac crest of the pelvis, which provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, and the sartorius muscle.t refers to the anterior extremity of the iliac crest of the pelvis, which provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, and the sartorius muscle.

Iliopsoas Iliacus originates in the Iliac fossa of the pelvis.   Insertion   Psoas major unites with iliacus at the level of the inguinal ligament and crosses the hip joint to insert on the lesser trochanter. Psoas minor inserts at the iliopectineal arch, the thickened band at the iliac fascia which separates the muscular lacuna from the vascular lacuna.

Iliac Crest Iliac crest forms the margin of ilium, and is a curved and broad structure that helps protect the inside of pelvic region. This crest forms the curved superior border area of the Ilium. Ilium is the largest of the bones that merge together to form the hipbone. There are usually three bones that merge and form the hipbone. Iliac crest is located on lateral edge of the superior of the Ilium and it is very close to the surface of skin within the hip region.

- The iliopsoas (ilio-so-as) is the combination of the psoas major and the iliacus at their inferior ends. These muscles are distinct in the abdomen, but usually indistinguishable in the thigh. As such, they are usually given the common name iliopsoas and are referred to as the dorsal hip muscles. or inner hip muscles.

Iliopsoas The iliacus originates in the iliac fossa of the pelvis. The psoas major unites with the iliacus at the level of the inguinal ligament and crosses the hip joint to insert on the lesser trochanter of the femur. The iliopsoas is involved in flexion and lateral rotation (supination) of the thigh. If the limb is fixed they involve in flexion of the trunk.
