Uppermost and largest part of the hip bone, and appears in most vertebrates (including mammals and birds), but not bony fish or snakes.
An ancient city in Asia Minor that was the site of the Trojan War.
1Each hemi-pelvis starts out as three separate bones: ilium, ischium, and pubis.
2The ridges on the ilium are very prominent in most Runts.
3If large portions of the ilium are fractured, considerable disturbance results.
4Five lesions arose in the ilium and three in the pubis.
5Pertaining to the ilium or to the flanks.
6The ilium of Brontomerus tells us a lot.
7You see where the hip bone, or the ilium, joins the sacrum here on each side?
8Again a red line half an inch wide could be traced from the ilium to the toes.
9The horn entered at the anterior superior spinous process of the ilium, involving the parietes and the uterus.
10No signs of intra-peritoneal injury were noted, but free suppuration occurred in left loin; the ilium was tunnelled.
11Throughout childhood, each pelvic half is composed of three separate elements, the ilium, the ischium, and the pubis.
12I read such sentences like poesy: ilium, ischium, os innominatum, ecto-cuneiform and cnemial crest, platelets and thrombin, keloid, cicatrix.
13There were eight lesions of the ilium, two of the sacrum, and nine involving two adjoining regions of pelvis.
14The ilium osteotomy starts just proximal to the anterior inferior iliac spine and exits posteriorly at the sciatic notch.
15The anterior margin of the ilium, however, is sometimes a little more equally rounded on both sides than in the rock-pigeon.
16I never saw a case of stellate fracture, and by this my experience in the case of the ilium was confirmed.
