Description
The iliac tuberosity is the rough, superiorly located area of the sacropelvic surface of ilium. It is an area that is bounded:
—anteriorly, by the medial border of ilium;
—posterosuperiorly, by the iliac crest;
—inferiorly, by the auricular surface of ilium.
The iliac tuberosity provides attachment sites for the posterior and interosseous sacroiliac ligaments.
