The space between the pelvic inlet and outlet
cavity
Type of pelvis which is common in 41% women
gynecoid pelvis
The sacral canal contains the following:
✅ fibrofatty material
✅ filum terminale
❎ spinal cord
✅lower part of subarachnoid space
The structures are the remains of the pedicles and superior articular processes
cornua
The increase in the mobility and potential size of the pelvis during childbirth is due to the following: ❎ = except
✅ estrogen
✅ progesterone
✅ relaxin
❎ growth hormone
Attached to this structure is the medial end of the inguinal ligament
pubic tubercle
Theses are short, thick, rounded dorsal projections from the superior part of the body at the junction of its lateral dorsal surface
pedicle
This structure projects dorsally and often caudally from the junction of the laminae and acts as lever for muscles which control posture and active movements of the vertebral
column
spinous porcess
Arise from the vertebral arch at the pedicolaminar junction, permit limited movement between vertebrae
transverse process
True of cervical vertebra except: (❎)
✅ has a small, relatively broad vertebral body
✅ pedicles project posterolaterally
✅ triangular vertebral body
❎ has coastal facets
This structure project laterally from the pediculolaminar junction as levers for muscles and ligaments, particularly those concerned with rotation and flexion
transverse process
This vertebra fails to incorporate a centrum, consists of two lateral masses connected by a short anterior and a longer posterior arch
C1
The first lumbar vertebra conntains
conus medullaris
The most lateral bony point in the shoulder region and projects laterally below and in front of the acromial angle
greater tubercle
A tubercle in the dorsal aspect of distal radius which is grooved on its ulnar side by the tendon of the extensor pollicis longus
Lister’s tubercle
Contents of the canal underneath the hook of the hamate
ulnar nerve and artery
What structures can be palpated in the anatomical snuffbox?
scaphoid and trapezium
These are paired bones forming most of the upper lateral side of the skull. The right and left side joins together at the top of the skull
parietal bone
The superficial facial bones are the following except (❎)
❎ palatine bones
✅ maxillary bones
✅ lacrimal bones
✅ zygomatic bones
These structures decrease weight of the skull and lined with mucous membrane. These also protect the entrances to the respiratory system
sinuses
This forms boundaries between the temporal and parietal bones
squamous suture
This structure attach to tendons and ligaments of the hyoid, tongue and pharynx
styloid process
A depression within the sella turcica
hypophyseal fossa
True of primary curves of the vertebral column
considered as accommodation curves to accommodate internal organs
