Introduction: Hip bone is the form of the union of 3 bone ilium, ischium & pubis. The acetabulum is the part of hip bone it is usually a deep cup shape or house shoes shape. Acetabulum having a deep cavity like structure present in the lateral aspect of the hip bone. Acetabulum is divided into two parts articular and non-articular, non-articular part of this fossa is covered by a pad of fat this fat. this surface is articulate with head of the femur and it form most stable joint know as hip joint, this is the most stable joint in our body. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the Department of Anatomy.in R.K.D.F Meidical College & Hospital Bhopal M.P 200 human hip bones of both sexes were used. Following parameter were taken Shape of acetabulum – Curved, angular, irregular straight. The transverse diameter of the acetabulum- The maximum distance between the anterior and posterior ends of the acetabular cavity. The vertical diameter of the acetabulum -The greatest dimension between the Upper and Lower Margins of the Acetabular Cavity Total diameter of the acetabulum – The transverse diameter of the acetabulum+.
