no
what are the 3 parts of the hip joint?
- greater trochanter
- neck
- head
female and male differences of pelvis
look at slides (PowerPoint)
What is the inferior boundary of the pelvis major?
pelvic brim, linea terminalis
What articulates with the auricular surface of the ilium?
sacrum
What bones form the os coxa?
illium
ishium
pubic bones
Where do the three bones of the os coxa meet?
the acetabulum
Which Pelvic bone is most inferior?
ischium
Which bone articulates with the sacrum inferiorly?
coccyx
What is the pelvis minor also referred to as?
The true pelvis
A pelvis with an acute subpubic angle belongs to which gender?
Male
what are the muscles of the false pelvis?
- Iliopsoas muscle
- Psoas Major
- Iliacus
- Rectus Abdominus
what does the iliopsoas consist of?
-psoas
-iliacus
joins at the crest level
where does the iliopsoas coarse?
- Courses anteriorly along the linea terminalis
- Travels over pelvic brim
- Inserts onto the lesser trochanter of the femur
what are the muscles of the true pelvis?
- obturator internus
- pelvic diaphragm
- coccygeus
- levator ani
- iliococcygeus
- pubococcygeus
-pirformis
what muscles cover the true pelvic wall?
- obturator internus
- piriformis
what part of the wall does the obturator internus cover?
covers antero-lateral wall of true pelvis
where does the obturator internus travel?
Originates on inner inferior aspect of obturator foramen, crosses it and leaves pelvis through the lesser sciatic notch where it makes a sharp turn to insert on the medial surface of the greater trochanter.
what action does the obturator internus do?
rotates thigh
where does the piriformis travel?
Originates on anterior surface of the sacrum, pass through greater sciatic notch to insert on greater trochanter of femur
what action does the piriformis muscle do?
rotation and abduction of the thigh
what muscles cover the pelvic outlet?
- peritoneum (anal and urogenital triangle)
- pelvic diaphragm
- urogenital diaphragm
what muscles make up the pelvic diaphragm?
- levator ani (pubococcygeus, iliococcygeus)
- coccygeus muscles
what muscles make up the urogenital diaphragm?
- transversus perineal
- external urethral sphincter
what muscles make up the urogenital triangle?
- Bulbospongiosus
- Ischiocavernosus
- superficial Transversus Perineal
what muscle makes up the anal triangle?
Sphincter Ani muscle
what muscles aid in the contraction of the vagina and rectum?
levator ani muscles
- pubococcygeus
- iliococcygeus
where is the Pubococcygeus muscles?
Most medial and anterior muscles of the pelvic diaphragm extends from pubic bone to coccyx
where is the iliococcygeus muscle?
Lie posterolateral to the pubococcygeus - extend from lateral pubic bone and ischial spine to coccyx
where is the coccygeus muscle?
Most posterior muscle pair of the pelvic diaphragm - extend from ischial spine to the coccyx
what muscles make up the urogenital diaphragm?
- Deep Transverse Perineal (aka transverse perinei)
- External Urethral Sphincter
where does the Deep Transverse Perineal travel?
horizontal muscles originating on ischial tuberosities and passing medially to insert on central perineal tendon
where does the External Urethral Sphincter travel?
voluntary (unlike internal urethral sphincter). Stops urine from exiting the bladder.
what is the outline of the diamond?
Diamond shaped area between pubic arch anteriorly, coccyx posteriorly and ischial tuberosities laterally.
where does the Superficial Transverse Perineal travel?
- Arise on ischial tuberosities and pass medially to insert on central perineal tendon.
- Divides perineum into urogenital and anal regions
where does the Ischiocavernosus travel?
Arise on ischial tuberosities, pass forward to insert on pubic arch and crus of penis (males) or clitoris (females)
where does the Bulbospongiosus travel?
Median line of urogential region.
Female - separated by urethra/vagina.
Male - unite midline and encircle corpus spongiosum of penis
