What are the pelvic bones? (5)
Sacram, Coccyx, Ilium, Pubis, Ischium
What are the joints in the pelvis? (2)
Sacroiliac - between iliac and sacral
Pubic Symphysis - between pubis
What is the acetabulum?
What are the parts and what do they do? (2)
Hip socket
Lunnate surface - article cartilage
Acetabular notch - allows for greater range of motion
What do ASIS, AIIS, PSIS and PIIS stand for?
ASIS - anterior superior iliac spine
AIIS - anterior inferior iliac spine
PSIS - posterior superior iliac spine
PIIS - posterior inferior iliac spine
What are the parts of the pelvis? (15)
ASIS, AIIS, PSIS, PIIS, Iliac crest, Iliac fossa, Greater Siatic Notch, Lesser Siatic Notch, Ischial Tuberosity, Ischial Spine, Pubic Symphysis, Inferior Pubic Ramus, Pubic tubercle, Obturator foramen, superior pubic ramus
What are the sex differences in the pelvis? (7)
Male, Female
Ilium - more vertical, less vertical
Sacrum - narrow triangle large curve, broad triangle less curve
Iliac fossa - deeper, shallower
Pelvic Inlet - narrow heart shaped, open circular
Pelvic Outlet - narrow, wide
Coccyx - points anterior, points inferior
Pubic Angle - less than 90, more than 100
What parts have sex differences in the pelvis? (7)
