Background: Hip bone is an irregular shaped bone formed by the union of ilium, ischium and pubis. The acetabulum is a deep cup shaped cavity present on the lateral side of the hip bone . It has a smooth lunate articular surface that articulates with the head of the femur to form the hip joint, a rough non articular part acetabular fossa and acetabular notch. Morphometry of acetabular fossa forms the basis for construction of prosthesis of acetabulum. Objective: To study the morphology of acetabulum margins, to measure the various dimensions of the acetabulum in dry human hip bone.
