Epiphyseal Line/Plate
The epiphyseal line is bone formed inside the epiphyseal plate when bone is fully grown. The cartilage inside the epiphyseal plate is substituted through bone around the ages of 18-21 when a bone ceases to grow lengthwise. This phenomenon of substitution is called epiphyseal closure. The regions
Pubic Tubercle
The pubic tubercle is a vital superficial landmark. It may be recognized as a small projection alongside the superior aspect of the pubis. Medial towards the pubic tubercle, the pubic crest is the rim of bone, at the superior aspect of the pubic bone.
