Components
Hip joint with ligaments: Pelvis (ilium–ischium–pubis) with proximal femur; capsule with iliofemoral, pubofemoral, ischiofemoral ligaments; modeled transverse acetabular ligament; articulated head–neck for demonstration of physiologic ROM.
Hip joint with muscles: Superficial myology of gluteus maximus, medius, minimus, tensor fasciae latae, and deep external rotators (piriformis, obturator internus/externus, gemelli, quadratus femoris); visible greater/lesser trochanter and muscle insertions.

Hip & Knee Inflammations (OA, RA, bursitis, tendinopathy; schematic pathology)
Learning objectives
Identify acetabulum, femoral head–neck, greater/lesser trochanters, ligament attachments, and capsular fiber orientation.
Explain roles of iliofemoral (Y) ligament in resisting extension/external rotation; pubofemoral in limiting abduction/extension; ischiofemoral in controlling internal rotation.
Correlate abductor mechanism (gluteus medius/minimus, TFL) with pelvic stability and Trendelenburg gait.
Discuss common pathology: hip OA, RA synovitis, trochanteric bursitis, tendinopathy of abductors, and external rotator syndrome.
Set up OSCE tasks: landmark identification, ligament function, abductor testing, safe ROM demonstration.
