Definition:
(n.) The ventral and anterior of the three principal bones composing either half of the pelvis; sharebone; pubic bone.
Example Sentences:

(6) In patients with injury to the sacro-iliac joints or of the sacrum, the extent of the injury and the degree of pelvic instability was better shown by CT. All other bony lesions, such as fractures of the ilium, pubis, ischium or the symphysis could be diagnosed adequately by simple radiographs.
(7) The specific and complementary investigations revealed the absence of the left half of sacrum, coccyx, together with the left iliac bone, ischium and pubis.
