Acetabulum, located on the lateral surface of the hip bone, is a deep, cup-shaped hemispherical socket. Its orientation is lateral, downward, and forward. It plays a crucial role as is it articulates with the femur’s head to form the hip joint. Within the acetabulum, we can observe two distinct regions: 1) acetabular fossa, and 2) lunate surface.
