French term or phrase: point d’angle postéro-supérieur
Hi,

These are the sentences:
"tendon du muscle piriforme renforce le point d’angle postéro-supérieur de l’articulation coxo-fémorale"
"point d’angle postéro-supérieur de la voie d’abord postérieure composé du tendon du muscle piriforme et du lambeau capsulaire postérieur"

Are we talking about a posterosuperior corner or aspect in this context?

Thanks

Joanna

posterosuperior corner
Explanation:
Point d'angle is translated as corner in the knee joint -

https://www.arthroscopie.fr/glossary/points-dangles-du-genou...
Les points d’angle sont des points anatomiques du genou renforçant la capsule articulaire du genou en réunissant les structures méniscales, ligamentaires et musculaires. On distingue le PAPI ou point d’angle postéro interne et le PAPE ou point d’angle postéro externe. Il s’agit d’éléments stabilisateurs du genou. Dans les entorses graves du genou ces éléments anatomiques peuvent être déchirés et aggraver le pronostic fonctionnel du genou en l’absence de traitement adéquat.

https://radiopaedia.org/articles/posterolateral-corner-injur...
Posterolateral corner injury of the knee can occur in isolation or with other internal derangements of the knee, particularly cruciate ligament injuries. The importance of injuries to the posterolateral ligamentous complex lies in the possible long-term joint instability and cruciate graft failure if these are not identified and treated.

It seems to refer to a group of related anatomical structures. However I haven't been able to find the comparable term in the hip joint, hence the low confidence
