The bony landmarks of the upper femur are the greater trochanter of the femur and the lesser trochanter of the femur. The greater trochanter of the femur, also known as the greater trochanter of the femur, is a palpable bony prominence located on the surface of the body on either side of the hip joint. At the proximal end of the femur, there is a non-smooth, outward and upwardly projecting protrusion called the greater trochanter, or greater trochanter. The posteriorly projecting inward protrusion is called the lesser trochanter, or lesser trochanter. By touching these bony landmarks, the location of specific parts of the body can be clarified, which can play a better role in the diagnosis and treatment of some diseases, and the localization is more accurate. If there is any discomfort, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time, complete the relevant examinations, and carry out targeted treatment under the guidance of a professional doctor after a clear diagnosis, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
