Phleboliths are tiny calcifications (masses of calcium) located within a vein. They are sometimes called “vein stones.” The phlebolith starts as a blood clot and hardens over time with calcium. When these calcified masses are found in your pelvis, they are called pelvic phleboliths.

The iliac crest is the area where arching bones sit on either side of your pelvis. They look somewhat like wings and extend to your hips and lower back. The iliac crest bones are attached to your oblique muscles.

A hip pointer is a deep bruise to the ridge of bone on the upper outside of your hip, called the iliac crest. It's often a result of a direct blow to the hip or a hard fall. Hip pointer symptoms include pain and tenderness. Recovery from the injury usually involves taking a break from activity until it heals.

Fetal pyelectasis or pelviectasis typically consists of a mild enlargement of the central area, or “pelvis,” of the kidney. (This is not to be confused with fetal hydronephrosis, which is an extreme ballooning of the kidney.)

The true pelvis contains the pelvic colon, rectum, bladder, and some of the reproductive organs. The false pelvis supports the intestines (specifically, the ileum and sigmoid colon) and transmits part of their weight to the anterior wall of the abdomen.

The pelvic girdle is formed by the paired os coxae (coxal bones). Together with the sacrum and coccyx of the axial skeleton, this group of bones forms the bony pelvis.

The renal sinus is a cavity within the kidney which is occupied by the renal pelvis, renal calyces, blood vessels, nerves and fat. The renal hilum extends into a large cavity within the kidney occupied by the renal vessels, minor renal calyces, major renal calyces, renal pelvis and some adipose tissue.

A long bone has two parts: the diaphysis and the epiphysis. The diaphysis is the tubular shaft that runs between the proximal and distal ends of the bone. The hollow region in the diaphysis is called the medullary cavity, which is filled with yellow marrow.

23718. Anatomical terms of bone. The pisiform bone (/ˈpaɪsɪfɔːrm/ or /ˈpɪzɪfɔːrm/), also spelled pisiforme (from the Latin pisifomis, pea-shaped), is a small knobbly, sesamoid bone that is found in the wrist. It forms the ulnar border of the carpal tunnel.

The bony pelvis consists of the two hip bones (also known as innominate or pelvic bones), the sacrum and the coccyx. There are four articulations within the pelvis: Sacroiliac joints (x2) - between the ilium of the hip bones, and the sacrum. Sacrococcygeal symphysis - between the sacrum and the coccyx.

The lymph nodes in the pelvis lie along the internal, external and common iliac arteries (the main blood vessels that supply blood to the lower abdomen and trunk of the body).

Yes, the ovaries are near the hip bones. Also called the coxal, the hip bones are made from the fusing of the ilium, ischium, and pubis bones.

(Kidney Stones) Stones (calculi) are hard masses that form in the urinary tract and may cause pain, bleeding, or an infection or block of the flow of urine. Tiny stones may cause no symptoms, but larger stones can cause excruciating pain in the area between the ribs and hips in the back.

The iliac crest forms the most prominent portion of the ilium, the largest of three bones that comprise the hip bone or bony pelvis. It is the curved portion at the top of the hip that lies close to the skin and forms the wing-like part on the pelvis on which a person will sometimes rest their hands.

Hip bone. The hip bone (os coxae, innominate bone, pelvic bone or coxal bone) is a large irregular bone, constricted in the center and expanded above and below. In some vertebrates (including humans before puberty) it is composed of three parts: the ilium, ischium, and the pubis.
