what is the pelvic girdle composed of?
sacrum, innominate bones, coccyx
what are the 3 bones fused together to make the innominate bone
ilim, ischium, and pubis
What are the 6 features of the innominate bone
Auricular surface, iliopectineal line, ischial tuberosity, symphyseal surface, ischial spine, oburator foramen

posterior aspect
What is the sacral promontory
superior anterior ridge of sacrum
What are the sacral ala
“sacral wings”
Below the sacral promontory , below superior aspect of sacrum but above sacral foramina
What are the holes in the sacrum called?
anterior sacral foramina
what is the smooth area on the lateral sacrum that articulates with the ilium to make the sacroiliac joint called?
auricular surface of the sacrum
What are the sacroiliac joints btw

where is the false pelvis?
superior to the pelvic inlet
where is the true pelvis
space between the pelvis inlet and outlet
what are the 2 different ways we can tell apart the male and female pelvis?
- subpubic angle (wider in females)
- Interspinous difference - distance btw ischial spines (larger in females)
what is the interspinous difference?
