Unit 1 And 2 Flashcards
Bony part of pelvic cavity
Sacrum, 1st to 3rd coccygeal vertebrae, Os coxae
Sacrum of horse and ruminants
Five fused vertebrae
Sacrum of pigs
4 fused vertebrae
Sacrum of carnivores
Three fused vertebra
triangular in form with the base articulating anteriorly with the last lumbar vertebra and caudally with the first coccygeal vertebra.
Sacrum
The ventral or inferior surface of the sacrum is-
Smooth and concave
It forms the largest portion of the roof of the pelvis
Ventral or inferior surface of sacrum
It consists of an ilium, ischium and pubis
Os coxae
forms the chief
boundary of the
pelvis and the
framework of the
uppermost segment
of the hindlimbs
which it connects
with the spine.
Os coxae
irregularly
triangular in
shape and
form part of
the lateral
wall of the
pelvis.
Ilium
forms the caudal
part of the ventral
floor of the pelvis.
Ischium
Smallest bone of the os coxae
Pubis
In pubis the dorsal pelvic surface is what -in female?
Smooth and concave
- It is cotyloid cavity formed by fusion of ilium,
ischium and pubis.
Acetabulum
head of the Femur
lodge into this cavity and is attached to it by
the round ligament.
Acetabulum
It helps maintain the relationship of the pelvis to the spinal column
Ligaments
This ligament is
attached to medial wing
of the ilium and the
lateral portion of the
sacrum and the summit
of the sacral spines.
Dorsal and lateral sacro- iliac ligament
It is a quadrilateral
ligamentous sheet that
completes the lateral
wall of the pelvic cavity.
Sacro-schiatic ligament
It is the tendon of
insertion of the recti
abdominis muscle
Prepubic tendon
is somewhat cone
shaped and the inlet is roughly oval shaped
with the largest diameter being sacro-
pubic.
pelvic cavity
Transverse or bis-iliac and
sacro-pubic diameter are
nearly equal, making the
pelvic inlet almost spherical in what animal
Mare
The coxal tuberosities are—- in mare
larger and prominent.
Ischial
tuberosities
are high and
prominent in what animal?
Cow
In cow, The pelvic inlet
is more
elliptical.
• Similar to cow except that the-_—
are relatively smaller in ewe
ischial tuberosities
Wing of iliac are
smaller and nearly
parallel to the
medial plane in what animal
Bitch
In bitch, ilium has a
.
twisted
appearance
In sow, —– is log and narrow
Pelvic inlet
wing of the illum are not prominent
The pubic symphysis is not completely
fused
The tuber ischii are largely cartilagenous
In what animal?
Sow
There are five (5) pelvic articulations:
- Sacro-lumbar
- Ischio-pubic
symphysis - Right sacro-iliac
- Sacro-coccygeal
- Left sacro-iliac
The pelvic inlet is bounded by the following:
Ventral-
Dorsal-
Lateral -
- Dorsally the base
of the sacrum - Ventrally the
pelvic brim - Laterally the
iliopectineal line.
The pelvic outlet is bounded by:
- The sacrum and
first three coccygeal
vertebrae dorsally - The ischial arch
ventrallv - The posterior-
border of the sacro-
sciatic ligament
laterally.
The pelvis of the male domestic animal differs
from the female in a number of definite points:
Diameter of Pelvic inlet is smaller in male than female
Bones of males are thicker and heavier
Ischial arch is narrow in male
Cranial floor of pelvis is convex in male and concave in female
Obturator foramen is small in male
Shape of ovary in cow
Oval shaped
Shape of ovary in cow
Oval shaped
Shape of ovary in mare
The corpus luteum ?
Bean shaped
Cauliflower shaped
Ovary that weight 30 - 90 g
Mare
Animal that has almond- shaped ovary?
Ewe
Resembles those in cow’s ovary
Ewe
Oval in shape ovary then mullberry like when matured in what animal
Sow
Also Oval in shape,
mulberry-like but smaller
Bitch
In bitch, ovarian bursa contains-
Fat
Cl contains no pigment in-
Bitch
In —, ovarian bursa contains no fat and cl contains no pigment
Cats
It is the site of fertilization
Oviduct
Three parts of oviduct
Infundibulum, ampulla, isthmus
the middle part of oviduct which
joins the isthmus at the
isthmus- ampullary
junction.
Ampulla
- The part nearest, funnel shaped, has
finger like projection called as fimbrae
which aids in the collection of the ovum
into the oviduct.
Infundibullum
- joins the tip of
the uterine horns at the
utero-tubal unction
Isthmus
- Torturous, wiry
and hard, feeling
nearly
cartilaginous when
rolled between
fingers
What animal?
Mare or cow
Oviduct is - 15-
30cm,
6-12
inches
,long
Sow
4-7cm, 2-3½ inches long and has a
slightly torturous course around
nearly the entire circumference of
the ovarian bursa.
Dog and cat
• a muscular-membranous structure
designed for the reception of the
fertilized ovum, for the nutrition and
protection of the fetus, and for the
initial stage of expulsion of the fetus
at the time of parturition.
Uterus
Shape of uterus in cow?
Cornuate
Location of uterus in cow?
Floor of pelvis, on pelvic brim or over the brim
