trochanter

When you stand up straight, the band is behind the trochanter.

When you bend your hip, however, the band moves over and in front of the trochanter.

Here the two trochanters, greater and lesser trochanter, is found.

The fourth trochanter is pendant and located in a rather high position.

In human anatomy, the trochanter is a part of the femur.

A projection known as the third trochanter is larger in P. madagascariensis.

The fourth trochanter is a shared characteristic common to archosaurs.

A bursa is often found between the front of this muscle and the lesser trochanter.

Hence, the affected leg is shortened, and the greater trochanter prominent.

They are the trochanter, the femur, the tibia, and the foot.

They insert on the greater trochanter of the femur.

Structures analogous to the third trochanter are present in other mammals, including some primates.

The minimus has similar functions and both muscles are inserted onto the greater trochanter.

The fourth trochanter provides a large site for the attachment of muscles on the femur.

The depression over greater trochanter is generally omitted.

The greater trochanter can easily be felt.

A bursa is interposed between the tendon and the greater trochanter.

The inferior border, long and narrow, curves a little backward, to end at the lesser trochanter.

Her greater trochanter, however, was clearly derived, being short and human-like rather taller than the femoral head.

The lesser trochanter is a unique development of mammals, which lack both the internal and fourth trochanters.

The trochanter is an anatomical part of the femur connecting to the hip bone.

The lateral ridge is very rough, and runs almost vertically upward to the base of the greater trochanter.

The greater trochanter is usually prominent on palpation and is more proximal.

The upper half of the crest forms the posterior border of the greater trochanter.

Smok and theropods also have an anterior trochanter on the femur.
