an ischiofemoral ligament
The three extracapsular ligaments of the hip joint the iliofemoral, ischiofemoral, and pubofemoral ligaments form a twisting mechanism encircling the neck of the femur.
The ischiofemoral ligament prevents medial (internal) rotation while the pubofemoral ligament restricts abduction and internal rotation of the hip joint.
The extracapsular ligaments are the iliofemoral, ischiofemoral, and pubofemoral ligaments attached to the bones of the pelvis (the ilium, ischium, and pubis respectively).
