Abstract

Human hip joint is built to stand and walk. It has the largest range of motion after shoulder joint. However, it is quite a static joint due to surrounding muscles, bones, and ligaments. A large part of hip joint stability is provided by joint capsule rather than by surrounding muscular structures. In this chapter the functional and anatomical characteristics of the hip joint will be discussed.
