35
Q

the ASIS is vertically in the same plane as _______

A

pubic tubercle

36
Q

What marks the upper border of the pelvis

A

the pelvic brim/aperture/inlet

37
Q

what is the lateral border of the pelvic inlet

A

iliopectineal line

38
Q

what is the posterior border of the pelvic inlet

A

sacral promontory

39
Q

what is the anterior border of the pelvic inlet

A

top of pubis

40
Q

where is pelvis major and why is it “false pelvis”

A

it is between the ala of the ilium and above the pelvic inlet. So it is actually in the abdomen

41
Q

what is the anterior border of pelvis major

A

abdominal wall

42
Q

what is the lateral border of pelvis major

A

iliac fossae

43
Q

what is posterior border of pelvis major

A

L5 and S1

44
Q

what is the true pelvis

A

pelvis minor

45
Q

what is the superior border of Pelvis Minor

A

pelvic inlet

46
Q

what Is the inferior border of pelvis minor

A

pelvic diaphragm

47
Q

what is the posterior border of pelvis minor

A

sacrum and coccyx

48
Q

what is the anterior border of pelvis minor

A

pubis

49
Q

what is the lateral border of pelvis minor

A

obturator internus

50
Q

what are the contents of pelvis minor

A

bladder, rectum, urinary ducts, prostate, ovaries, uterus, vagina

51
Q

where is the pelvic diaphragm suspended

A

inferior pelvic aperture/ pelvic outlet

52
Q

what is the external surface of the pelvic outlet

A

perineum

53
Q

what does the perineum contain

A

external genitilia

54
Q

what is on the outside of the obturator membrane

A

obturator internus

55
Q

name 3 ways the female pelvis is different from the male pelvis

A

wider pubic arch with shallower subpubic angle
larger pelvic inlet
thinner bone in iliac fossae

56
Q

what are the two joints in the vertebral column (in the pelvic area)

A

L5:sacrum
sacrum:coccyx

57
Q

what kind of joint(s) is/are found between L5:sacrum

A

Anterior: symphysis between the bodies
Posterior: plane between the arches

58
Q

what kind of joint(s) is/are found between the sacrum:coccyx

A

only symphysis joints (because the arches and the bodies of the sacrum are fused)

59
Q

Which ligaments are like a continuation of the Anterior Longitudinal Ligament and Posterior Longitudinal Ligament? They act to:

A

Sacrococcygeal ligaments; reinforce the vertebrae/sacrum/coccyx

60
Q

How many pelvic joints are there? Name them

A

3 total

(1) pubic symphysis
(2) sacro-iliac joints

61
Q

The pubic symphysis joint is (anterior/posterior), between which bones?

A

anterior; the two os coxae

62
Q

what two ligaments reinforce the pubic symphysis joints?

A

63
Q

what does the superior pubic ligament connect

A

64
Q

what do the arcuate pubic ligaments connect

A
