30
Q

Acetabulum

A

Faces Antero-inferiorly,
Formed by all 3 bones
Acetabular fossa is the central floor of the acetabulum

31
Q

Sacrum

A

Formed by the 5 Sacral Vertrebrae

32
Q

Diameter of females

A

is greater than the diameter of male pelvis

33
Q

Primary function of pelvis in both sexes is ______. Pelvis of female is adapted for _________.

A

Locomotion and Childbearing

34
Q

Greater Sciatic Notch

A

Converted to a foramen by sacrospinous ligament, this foramen transmit piriformis and sciatic nerve

35
Q

SI Joints (Movement occurs here)

A

Sacral surface has hyaline
Iliac Surface has fibrocartilage; Sacral cartilage is thicker than ilial cartilage

36
Q

Symphysis Pubis

A

Interpubic disc of white fibrocartilage connects the adjacent surfaces; pubic width 4mm can go to 9 mm for females

37
Q

Ligaments of the Pelvic Girdle: SI Joints

A

Anterior Sacroiliac Ligament
Posterior Sacroiliac Ligament
Interosseous Ligament

38
Q

Other Ligaments of the Pelvic Girdle

A

Iliolumbar Ligament

39
Q

Ligaments of Symphysis Pubis

A

Superior Pubic Ligament
Thick Arcuate Pubic Ligament
Anterior Pubic Ligament
Posterior Pubic Ligament

40
Q

Movements of the Pelvis

41
Q

Rotation of Ilium

A

Anterior (ASIS tips downward, PSIS upward)
Posterior (PSIS tips downward, ASIS upward)

42
Q

Upslips

A

Ilium moves up in comparison to sacrum

43
Q

44
Q

Nutation

A

top of sacrum dips in or anteriorly (Donald Duck)

45
Q

Counternutation

A

Top of sacrum goes posteriorly (Pink Panther)

46
Q

Sacral Motion with Respiration

A

Top of sacrum moves posteriorly with inhalation and forwards with exhalation; on expiration: top of sacrum goes anteriorly vs. on inspiration: top of sacrum goes posteriorly
