English term

forces of the large muscular envelope

English to Russian Medical Medical: Instruments
Hip arthroscopy can therefore be used to diagnose
and treat a variety of hip ailments. However, hip arthroscopy remains technically demanding, due, again, to very limited
access. Hip arthroscopy requires joint distention and demands special tools and operating equipment to counteract the forces of the large muscular envelope, the iliofemoral ligament, and the negative intra-articular pressure in the hip joint.

крупные мышцы, окружающие бедро

I think the text is referring to the _muscles_ that surround the hip joint, since there are quite a few, and they run from the pelvis to the femur, helping to hold the femoral head firmly against the acetabulum.

As you can see from the second reference, the term 'envelope' can be applied to other things, e.g. 'soft tissue envelope'.
