Pubofemoral Ligament

Pubofemoral Ligament

The Pubofemoral Ligament is one of the ligaments in the hip joint, contributing to the stability and support of the joint. It extends from the superior portion of the pubic bone to the intertrochanteric line of the femur, reinforcing the anterior aspect of the hip capsule. Together with the iliofemoral and ischiofemoral ligaments, it forms part of the capsular ligament complex, which surrounds the hip joint. The primary function of the pubofemoral ligament is to restrict excessive abduction and extension of the hip joint, helping to prevent hyperextension and dislocation. It plays a crucial role in supporting the weight-bearing activities of the hip, contributing to the overall integrity of the joint. Injuries to the pubofemoral ligament are uncommon but can occur as a result of trauma or overuse, leading to hip instability and pain. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of clinical assessment, imaging studies, and sometimes arthroscopy for a more detailed evaluation of the hip joint.
