- 2 hip bones: ilium, pubis, ischium
- 1 sacrum
- 1 coccyx
Ligaments - hold/bind bony pelvis together and hold pelvis in proper orientation to resist forces
PeritoneumOrientation - NOT a basin!!! Tilt to ~80° angle
- sacrotuberous
- sacrospinous
- sacroiliac
- Pubic tubercles and ASIS in vertical line
Viscera
Falls short - does not reach pelvic floor/diaphragm - Pouches
- Female - vesicouterine & rectouterine
- Male - rectovesical
- Broad Ligament - mesosalpinx, mesovarium, & mesometrium
Rectum
Anal Canal
- peritoneal covering - top 1/3 on front and sides, middle 1/3 on front, inferior 1/3 none
- transverse rectal folds
- passes through pelvic diaphragm to become anal canal
- blood supply and venous return - portocaval anastomosis
Reproductive Organs
- internal anal sphincter - thickened circular (smooth) muscle
- external anal sphincter - skeletal muscle
- anal columns, valves, and sinuses - what forms columns?
- Pectinate Line - functional significance??
Bladder
- Female:
- Uterus
- fundus, body, isthmus, cervix (internal and external os)
- round ligament (anterior)
- uterine artery OVER ureter
- anteverted vs. anteflexed
- Uterine Tube
- isthmus, ampulla, infundibulum, fimbriae
- Ovary
- suspensory ligament (contains ovarian vessels)
- proper ovarian ligament
- (ovarian + round ligaments = gubernaculum)
- Vagina
- from cervix to vestibule
- vaginal fornices - recess around cervix (anterior, posterior, lateral)
- Male:
- Testis
- seminiferous tubules
- epididymis - head, body, tail
- Spermatic Cord
- ductus deferens
- testicular artery
- pampiniform plexus of veins
- Ejaculatory Ducts
- ampulla of ductus deferens + seminal vesicles
- through prostate to join urethra at seminal colliculus
- Prostate
- base of bladder
- median lobe = uvula
- apex, fundus, body, neck
- trigone = ureteric orifices + internal urethral orifice
- urethra
- male: prostatic, membranous, penile (spongy)
- female: membranous
