This membrane is then to be gently raised by the fingers, from off the iliacus and psoas muscles as far inwards as the margin of the true pelvis where the artery lies. From Wordnik.com. [Surgical Anatomy] Reference
There was little splintering of either inner or outer table of the bone beyond the width of the track, but plates of each table adhered on the one side to the origin of the gluteus medius, and on the other to the iliacus, the latter muscle being somewhat widely separated from the venter ilii by effused blood.

Some boreal birds, such as the American robin (Turdus migratorius), penetrate only into the southern part of the tundra while others can occur far from the area of their continuous distribution (climatic optimum): in the vicinity of Dixon (Taymir), the forest thrushes T. pilaris and T. iliacus form populations in the northernmost part of the tundra zone, 400 km from the last outposts of the forests.

The Psoas major and iliacus are sometimes regarded as a single muscle named the Iliopsoas. From Wordnik.com. [IV. Myology. 8. The Muscles and Fasciæ of the Lower Extremity. a. The Muscles and Fasciæ of the Iliac Region] Reference
The flaps should always be antero-posterior, the lateral flaps introduced by Vermale, and indorsed by Chelius and Erichsen, having the great disadvantage of allowing the bone, which is drawn up by the psoas and iliacus, to project at the upper angle.

In this space the artery is crossed in front by the crural branch of the genito crural nerve, and behind by the branch to the pectineus from the anterior crural nerve; while the anterior crural nerve lies about half an inch to the outer side, imbedded between the iliacus and psoas muscles.

At first through the skin and fascia only, this incision must be continued through the muscles of the abdominal wall, one by one, till the transversalis fascia is exposed, which must then be scraped through very cautiously, so as not to injure the peritoneum, which is to be detached from the fascia covering the psoas and iliacus muscles, and must be held inwards and out of the way by bent copper spatulæ.

The Iliac Branch (ramus iliacus) descends to supply the iliacus; some offsets, running between the muscle and the bone, anastomose with the iliac branches of the obturator; one of these enters an oblique canal to supply the bone, while others run along the crest of the ilium, distributing branches to the gluteal and abdominal muscles, and anastomosing in their course with the superior gluteal, iliac circumflex, and lateral femoral circumflex arteries.

Obtain if possible a proper bed; apply a roller from the toes to the groin; secure two splints made of binder's boards, softened in hot water and nearly meeting in front, to the thigh; lay the limb over the double inclined plane, which should be well cushioned; attach the foot to the foot board, so as to prevent inversion or eversion of the member; raise the body slightly so as to relax the psoas and iliacus muscles; adjust the angle beneath the knee in such a manner as to relax the muscles by which the lower fragment is kept out of position, and to keep the two fragments upon the same plane, and in the same line; bind the limb to the apparatus by means of a roller bandage; and retain it in position either by means of pegs placed on the side, or by side boards so arranged as to form with the splint a kind of trough.
