The hip joint is a ball and socket synovial joint that connects the femur to the pelvis. It allows for walking, running, and jumping by facilitating flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. The hip joint bears the body's weight and is stabilized by strong ligaments like the iliofemoral, pubofemoral, and ischiofemoral ligaments. It receives blood supply from the medial and lateral circumflex femoral arteries and is innervated by the sciatic, femoral, and obturator nerves.

3. HIP JOINT
 The hip joint is one of the most important joints in the human body. It
allows us to walk, run, and jump. It bears our body’s weight and the force
of the strong muscles of the hip and leg.

4. HIP JOINT
The head of femur articulates with the
acetabulum of the the hip bone to form
hip joint.

5. Type
 Ball and socket joint variety of synovial joint.

6. The most notable ligaments in the hip
joint are:
 Iliofemoral ligament, which connects the pelvis to the femur at the front
of the joint. ...
 Pubofemoral ligament, which attaches the most forward part of the pelvis
known as the pubis to the femur.
 ischiofemoral ligament is a band of very strong fibers that connect the
pelvis and the femur.

8. BLOOD SUPPLY OF HIP JOINT
 Blood supply. The hip joint is supplied with blood from the medial
circumflex femoral and lateral circumflex femoral arteries, which are both
usually branches of the deep artery of the thigh but there are numerous
variations and one or both may also arise directly from the femoral artery.

10. NERVE SUPPLY OF HIP JOINT
The hip joint is innervated
primarily by the sciatic,
femoral and obturator nerves.
