ASSIGNMENT ON
THE PELVIS
BY
MANISHA MEHRA
INTRODUCTION
 The pelvis is a basin like structure which connects the
spine to lower limbs.
 It is an important part of the skeletal system.
 It transmits the weight of the trunk to the legs.
 It takes the weight of the sitting body.
 It allows movements of walking and running.
 It protects the pelvic organs.
 In addition the female pelvis is adapted for
childbearing with an increased width and rounded
brim.
DEFINITION
 It is a skeletal ring formed by two innominate or hip
bones & the sacrum & the coccyx.
TYPES OF PELVIC BONES
 There are four pelvic bones that form pelvis:
 Two Hip bones (Innominate or nameless)
 One Sacrum
 One Coccyx
Ppt on pelvis
1.TWO INNOMINATE BONES
innominate bone is made up of three bones
 Ilium
 ischium
 pubic bone
ILIUM
 The ilium is the flared out part of the hip bone.
It has following parts-
 Iliac crest as upper border
 Concave border is iliac fossa
 Anterior superior iliac spine
 Anterior inferior iliac spine
 Posterior superior iliac spine
 Posterior inferior iliac spine
Ppt on pelvis
ISCHIUM
 The ischium is the thick lower part of the hip bone. It
has following parts-
 Acetabulum
 Ischial tuberosity
 Ischial spine: location in relation to fetal head, i.e.
above (-), below (+) or at (zero station)
 Greater sciatic Notch: extends from Sacro iliac joint to
ischial spine
 Lesser Sciatic Notch: extends from ischial spine to
ischial tuberosity
 Obturator foramen: passage of pelvic nerve fibres
PUBIC BONE
 The two pubic bones form the anterior part of the hip bone. It
has following parts-
 Inferior rami of Pubic bone (a)
 Superior rami of pubic bone (b)
 Symphysis pubis (a+b): It is formed at the junction of two
pubic bones.
 Sub pubic angle: angle between the inferior rami of the pubic
bone.
2.SACRUM
 It is a wedge shaped bone made up of five fused bones.
It has following parts-
 Sacral promontory: it is prominent upper margin of first
sacral vertebrae, projects inwards
 Sacro iliac joint
 Wings of Sacrum or Ala of Sacrum
 Hollow of the Sacrum: concave
Ppt on pelvis
3.COCCYX
 It is a vestigial tail consists of four fused vertebrae forming a
small triangular bone.
 It is articulated with the sacrum
 Coccyx moves backward during childbirth
PELVIC JOINTS
 There are four pelvic joints:
 Two sacroiliac joints
 One pubic symphysis joint
 One sacrococcygeal joint
TWO SACROILIAC JOINTS
 These are slightly movable joints
formed where the ilium joints,
first two sacral vertebrae on
either side.
 They connect the spine to the
pelvis & are the strongest joints
in body.
ONE PUBIC SYMPHYSIS JOINT
 It is a cartilaginous joint
between two pubic
bones.
ONE SACROCOCCYGEAL JOINT
 It is a hinge joint between
sacrum & coccyx.
PELVIC LIGAMENTS
 The pelvic bones are held together with ligaments.
 Sacro iliac ligament- it pass in front of and behind
each sacroiliac joint.
 Pubic ligament- it connect the top of pubic bones.
 Sacro tuberous ligament- one ligament on each side ,
run from sacrum to the ischial tuberosity
 Sacro spinous ligament- one ligament on each side of
the sacrum & the ischial spine.
 Sacro coccygeal ligament-one ligament on each side
from sacrum to coccyx.

STRUCTURE OF PELVIS
FALES PELVIS
TRUE PELVIS
FALSE PELVIS
 It is formed by the upper flared out portion of the
ilium.
 Laterally- iliac fossae, Posterior- fifth lumbar
vertebrae, Anteriorly – the abdominal wall and
inguinal ligament
 It protects the abdominal organs. It has no obstetrical
importance except that it provides certain landmarks
for external pelvimetry.
TRUE PELVIS
 The true pelvis is the bony canal through which
the fetus passes during birth.
 It has three parts-
BRIM CAVITY OUTLET
THE PELVIC BRIM OR INLET
 It is formed by the sacrum posteriorly, the iliac
bones laterally and the pubic bones anterior.
 Shape: it is almost rounded with anterio
posterior diameter being the shortest.
 Its boundaries are the sacral promontory and
wings of the sacrum behind the iliac bones on
the sides and the pubic bones in front.
Ppt on pelvis
LANDMARKS OF THE BRIM
 Sacral promontory
 Sacral ala or sacral
wing
 Sacroiliac joint
 Iliopectineal line
 Iliopubic eminence
 Pectineal line
 Pubic tubercle
 Pubic Crest
 Symphysis pubis
DIAMETERS OF THE BRIM
 Anterio posterior
 Transverse
 Oblique
ANTERIO POSTERIOR (11CM)
 it is a line from the sacral promontory to the upper border of
symphysis pubis. This diameter is of three types-
 Diagonal conjugate- distance between lower border of
symphysis pubis to mid point on sacral promontory it is 12 cm.
 Obstetrical conjugate- it is distance between midpoint of sacral
promontory to prominent bony projection in mid line of
symphysis pubis. it measures 10 cm
 True conjugate - it extends from the sacral promontory to the
top of the symphysis pubis. Its normal measurement is 11 cm or
more.
Transverse (13cm) –
it is the distance between the two farthest points on
the pelvic brim over the Iliopectineal lines.
Oblique (12cm) –
it starts from the sacroiliac joint to the opposite
iliopubic eminence.
Ppt on pelvis
THE PELVIC CAVITY
 The cavity extends from the brim above to the
outlet below.
 Shape: its shape is almost rounded. It consist of
-
 Anterior border: Symphysis pubis
 Posterior border: Sacral hollow
 Lateral border: Soft tissues
 All diameters- measure 12cms.
THE PELVIC OUTLET
ANATOMICAL OUTLET:
 It consists of the lower border of all bones and
Sacro tuberous ligament.
 It consists of lower border of symphysis pubis,
Sacro coccygeal joint and Sacro ischial spine.
 Shape: it is antero – posteriorly oval.
OBSTETRICAL OUTLET:
 This outlet has greater practical significance, because
it includes the narrow pelvic strait through which the
fetus must pass.
 It is otherwise known as bony outlet.
 Shape: it is diamond shaped.
DIAMETERS OF OUTLET:
 Antero-posterior diameter (13cm): it Extend
from lower border of symphysis pubis to the tip
of coccyx.
 Oblique diameter (12): it extend from Rt. & Lt.
Sacro spinous ligament to Obturator
foramen
 Transverse diameter (11cm): between the
ischial spines.
TYPES OF PELVIS
GYNAECOID ANTHROPOID ANDROID
PLATYPELLOID
1.Gynaecoid pelvis: (50%)
 It is commonly known as the
female pelvis because that
type occurs most frequently
in women.
 Most suitable for childbirth.
 Wider brim.
 Ischial spines are blunt
 Sub pubic angle is 90º
2.Anthropoid pelvis: (25%)
 It favors a posterior position of
the fetus.
 Oval in shape
 Transverse diameter is shorter
 Seen in tall women with
narrow shoulders
3.Android pelvis: (20%)
 It is commonly known as
male pelvis because it occurs
more frequently in men.
 Heart shaped brim
 Anterior posterior diameter
is shorter
 Transverse diameter is
wider
 Childbirth is difficult
4.Platypelloid (flat) pelvis:
(5%)
 This type of pelvis is rare.
 Kidney shaped brim
 Anterior posterior diameter
is smaller
 Transverse diameter is
wider
 Not conductive to vaginal
delivery
DEFORMITIES OF PELVIS
 Contracted pelvis
 Rachitic pelvis
 Asymmetrical pelvis
 Roberts pelvis
 Nageles pelvis
 Osteomalacis / maacosteon pelvis
 Assimilation pelvis
 Others- Kyphosis, scoliosis, spondylosisthesis
