What is the pelvic girdle made up of?
Hip bone (innominate x2), sacrum and the coccyx
Innominate Bone
3 fused bones: Ilium, Pubis and Ischium
Features of the Ilium
-4 spines
-Iliac crest
-Iliac fossa
-Arcuate Line
-Greater sciatic notch
-Iliac tuberosity
-Auricular Surface
-Gluteal surface
-
Features of the Ischium
-Ischial Spine
-Lesser Sciatic notch
-Ischial Tuberosity
-Ischial Ramus
Features of the Pubis
-Pectineal Line
-Superior &Inferior Pubic ramus
-Symphyseal surface
-Body
Shared features of the Ischium, Ilium and Pubis
-Acetabulum (all 3)
-Obturator foramen (Pubis & Ischium)
-Ischiopubic ramus (pubis & Ischium)
-Iliopectineal line (ilium & pubis)
Difference between male and female pelvic girdles?
Females have wider space than males
Features of the sacrum
-Sacral ala
-Sacral Canal
-Posterior and Anterior Sacral Foramina
-Sacral Promontory
-Sacral Hiatus
-Auricular surface (shared with ilium)
where is Coccyx located
inferior of sacrum
What is the pelvic Inlet & what are its 3 borders?
superior opening of pelvis
Anterior border: pubic symphysis
Posterior border: Sacral promontory and ala
Lateral border: iliopectineal line
What is the pelvic Outlet & what are its 3 borders?
inferior opening of pelvis
Anterior border: Pubic arch
Posterior border: Coccyx
Lateral border: Ischial Tuberosity
True vs False Pelvis
False Pelvis: contains organs of lower abdomen
True Pelvis: between the inlet and outlet; where the viscera is located
Pubic Symphysis Joint
-fibrocartilaginous
-between pubis’
-connected by pubis symphysis on symphyseal surface
Sacroiliac Joint
-where sacrum and ilium articulate
-articulation at auricular surfaces
Sacroiliac Ligament
-attaches sacrum to ilium
Sacrospinous Ligament
-connects sacrum and Ischial Spine
-assists in supporting sacroiliac joint
Sacrotuberous Ligaments
-3 attachment points; posterior superior iliac spine, sacrum and the ischial tuberosity
Inguinal Ligaments
-does not support sacroiliac joint
-connects at anterior superior iliac spine and pubis
Sciatic Foramina
-Greater can be viewed anteriorly above the sacrospinous ligament
-lesser can be viewed anteriorly below the sacrospinous ligament and above the sacrotuberous ligament
Hip Joint
-articulation between innominate bone and femur
-synovial ball and socket joint
-triaxial
-more stable than mobile
Acetabulum
-Shared by the 3 fused bones
-socket that head of femur sits inside
Features of the Acetabulum
-lunate surface (inside)
-acetabular labrum (extends out for more stability
Femoral Head
contains fovea (attachment site for ligamentum teres)
Ligamentum Teres
-holds femoral head in acetabulum
