Voorbeelden van trochanter

• This landmark was taken on the shaft just below the lesser trochanter, giving the minimum diameter of flattening.

• Fore and mid coxae and trochanters pale.

• Legs resembling those of £, but the spurs on coxae and trochanters less pronounced.

• One lies over the lesser trochanter on the left side, another occupies the left pelvis posteriorily.

• In order from the body they are the coxa, trochanter, femur, tibia, and tarsus.

• The shaft of the femur is straighter and the fourth trochanter is more distally placed.

• The lesser trochanter is a cone-shaped extension of the lowest part of the femur neck.

• The iliopsoas runs across the iliopubic eminence through the muscular lacuna to its insertion on the lesser trochanter of the femur.

• The superior border is short and thick, and ends laterally at the greater trochanter; its surface is perforated by large foramina.

• The iliacus originates on the iliac fossa to join psoas at the iliopubic eminence to form the iliopsoas which is inserted into the lesser trochanter.

• Surrounding structures such as the tensor fasciae latae and the greater trochanter may also be affected.

• The lateral ridge is very rough, and runs almost vertically upward to the base of the greater trochanter.

• In archosaurs and especially in dinosaurs, the intertrochanteric fossa is highly developed as both the internal/lesser trochanter and the greater trochanter are better developed.

• Her greater trochanter, however, was clearly derived, being short and human-like rather taller than the femoral head.

• The minimus has similar functions and both muscles are inserted onto the greater trochanter.
