Bony part of pelvic cavity
Sacrum, 1st to 3rd coccygeal vertebrae, Os coxae
Sacrum of horse and ruminants
Five fused vertebrae
Sacrum of pigs
4 fused vertebrae
Sacrum of carnivores
Three fused vertebra
triangular in form with the base articulating anteriorly with the last lumbar vertebra and caudally with the first coccygeal vertebra.
Sacrum
The ventral or inferior surface of the sacrum is-
Smooth and concave
It forms the largest portion of the roof of the pelvis
Ventral or inferior surface of sacrum
It consists of an ilium, ischium and pubis
Os coxae
forms the chief
boundary of the
pelvis and the
framework of the
uppermost segment
of the hindlimbs
which it connects
with the spine.
Os coxae
irregularly
triangular in
shape and
form part of
the lateral
wall of the
pelvis.
Ilium
forms the caudal
part of the ventral
floor of the pelvis.
Ischium
Smallest bone of the os coxae
Pubis
In pubis the dorsal pelvic surface is what -in female?
Smooth and concave
- It is cotyloid cavity formed by fusion of ilium,
ischium and pubis.
Acetabulum
head of the Femur
lodge into this cavity and is attached to it by
the round ligament.
Acetabulum
It helps maintain the relationship of the pelvis to the spinal column
Ligaments
This ligament is
attached to medial wing
of the ilium and the
lateral portion of the
sacrum and the summit
of the sacral spines.
Dorsal and lateral sacro- iliac ligament
It is a quadrilateral
ligamentous sheet that
completes the lateral
wall of the pelvic cavity.
Sacro-schiatic ligament
It is the tendon of
insertion of the recti
abdominis muscle
Prepubic tendon
is somewhat cone
shaped and the inlet is roughly oval shaped
with the largest diameter being sacro-
pubic.
pelvic cavity
Transverse or bis-iliac and
sacro-pubic diameter are
nearly equal, making the
pelvic inlet almost spherical in what animal
Mare
The coxal tuberosities are—- in mare
larger and prominent.
Ischial
tuberosities
are high and
prominent in what animal?
Cow
In cow, The pelvic inlet
is more
elliptical.
