As the thighs of the model reach the horizontal position, the palmar surfaces of the finger tips are able to palpate a prominent bony mass which becomes subcutaneous as the lower fibres of Gluteus Maximus pass in a lateral direction 3. The prominent bony feature exposed to palpation is the Ischial Tuberosity. 4.
