the lower limbs rotate…
the upper limbs rotate….
lower: rotate medially
upper: rotate laterally
2 hip bones together
pelvic girldle
pelvic girdle, sacrum and coccyx bound together by ligmanents
bony pelvis
how far up does the iliiac crest reach on the spine
reaches superiorly up to the 4th lumbar vertebra (disc between 4th and 5th L) and extends from ASIS to PSIS
attachment site for posterior sacroiliac ligament
PIIS
location of articulation with sacrum
auricular surface
between the greater and lesser sciatic notches
ischial spine
formed by the greater sciatic notch and sacrospinous and sacrotuberous ligaments
greater sciatic foramen
passes through both the greater and lesser sciatic foramen
internal pudendal vessels and pudendal nerve
- goes out the greater and back in the lesser
structures that traverse greater sciatic foramen
- Piriformis muscle
- Superior gluteal vessels and nerve
- Inferior gluteal vessels and nerve
- Internal pudendal vessels and pudendal nerve
- Sciatic nerve
- Posterior femoral cutaneous nerve
- Nerve to quadratus femoris and inferior gemellus
- Nerve to obturator internus and superior gemellus
structures that traverse lesser sciatic foramen
- internal pudendal vessels and pudendal nerve
- tendon of obturator internus
- nerve to obturator internus
formed by the lesser sciatic notch and the sacrospinous and sacrotuberous ligaments
