The fracture running through the iliac wing used for the intrapelvic surgery,[2,3] the exposure was either not fixed, fixed with screws only, or fixed to the anterior window is performed only in cases with a plate. when the acetabulum fracture requires reduction, i.e. reducing the displaced iliac wing fracture aids us in Geometric model: In the realistic geometric model, the reduction of the acetabulum. we modeled node-to node contact in the hip joint and at the fracture site, whereas a bonded contact In these cases, we have a possibility of fixing the was modeled in all other intact joints (symphysis and iliac wing component. For the fixation of the iliac sacroiliac joints). wing fracture, two different techniques exist: plate or screw fixation.[1] Material model: we used a linear elastic material model; the material properties can be seen in Table I.[5] Concerning the osteosynthesis of the bicolumnar The used material properties are the elastic modulus fracture, a question arises regarding which and the Poisson’s ratio. These material properties fixation provides greater stability of the fracture: are dedicated for the description of the deformity the combination of cranial and medial plate to the of elastic, rigid bodies under pressure. We removed linea terminalis, or the combination of cranial and the cancellous bone elements of so-called hollow quadrilateral surface plates? The second question is bone model, since our previous experiments have whether to additionally perform fixation of the iliac demonstrated that the cancellous bone layer does wing or not, and which technique should we use? not significantly partake in the loading; therefore, it To answer these questions, it helps to know can be neglected without causing misinterpretation whether the surgical fixation of the iliac wing will of the results.[6] For this reason, we only modelled influence the stability of the osteosynthesis of the the cortical layer, thus the table only contains those acetabulum fracture.[4] Therefore, in this study, we material properties.

  • The Pelvis Structure the Pelvic Region Is the Lower Part of the Trunk
    The pelvis Structure The pelvic region is the lower part of the trunk, between the abdomen and the thighs. It includes several structures: the bony pelvis (or pelvic skeleton) is the skeleton embedded in the pelvic region of the trunk, subdivided into: the pelvic girdle (i.e., the two hip bones, which are part of the appendicular skeleton), which connects the spine to the lower limbs, and the pelvic region of the spine (i.e., sacrum, and coccyx, which are part of the axial skeleton) the pelvic cavity, is defined as the whole space enclosed by the pelvic skeleton, subdivided into: the greater (or false) pelvis, above the pelvic brim , the lesser (or true) pelvis, below the pelvic brim delimited inferiorly by the pelvic floor(or pelvic diaphragm), which is composed of muscle fibers of the levator ani, the coccygeus muscle, and associated connective tissue which span the area underneath the pelvis. Pelvic floor separate the pelvic cavity above from the perineum below. The pelvic skeleton is formed posteriorly (in the area of the back), by the sacrum and the coccyx and laterally and anteriorly (forward and to the sides), by a pair of hip bones. Each hip bone consists of 3 sections, ilium, ischium, and pubis. During childhood, these sections are separate bones, joined by the triradiate hyaline cartilage. They join each other in a Y-shaped portion of cartilage in the acetabulum. By the end of puberty the three bones will have fused together, and by the age of 25 they will have ossified. The two hip bones join each other at the pubic symphysis.

  • HUMAN PELVIS HEIGHT IS ASSOCIATED with OTHER PELVIS MEASUREMENTS of OBSTETRIC VALUE Munabi Ian G
    ORIGINAL COMMUNICATION Anatomy Journal of Africa. 2015. Vol 4 (1): 457 – 465 HUMAN PELVIS HEIGHT IS ASSOCIATED WITH OTHER PELVIS MEASUREMENTS OF OBSTETRIC VALUE Munabi Ian G. *, Mirembe Florence, Luboga Sam A *Corresponding author; Munabi Ian G, Department of Anatomy, School of Biomedical Sciences, Makerere University College of Health Sciences, P.O. Box 7072 Kampala Uganda East Africa Telephone: +256772485474 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In low resource settings, perinatal death remains a major challenge, yet some of the key anthropometric measures used for screening have been found to be inappropriate. These calls for additional anatomically related measurements to act as a basis for the design of: easy-to-use, low technology accurate tools to enhance obstetric care quality in these settings. This study set out to determine the associations between the various pelvis anthropometric measurements of obstetric importance with pelvis height. The study made use of 30 complete rearticulated Adult pelvic bonesets of known sex. The some of the thirteen measurements made on each boneset included: Pelvis height, Sacral Anterior Orientation (SAO), pubic bone length, total pelvis height and inlet medial-lateral diameter. All measurements were taken thrice and the average used for comparisons with pelvis height. The non-parametric Mann-Whitney test and multilevel regression analysis test to control for gender was used. Pelvis height had significant associations with SAO (-0.36, P<0.01), pubic bone length (0.41, P<0.01), total pelvis height (0.21, P=0.04) and inlet medial-lateral diameter (0.46, P=0.02). Additional significant associations were observed with the diameters of the mid and outlet diameters of the birth canal.

  • The False Pelvis Lies Superior to the True Pelvis and Linea Terminalis. It Is a Larger and Wider Basin That Supports the Enlarge
    A. Obstetric Pelvis 1. What is the job of the false pelvis? The false pelvis lies superior to the true pelvis and linea terminalis. It is a larger and wider basin that supports the enlarged uterus during pregnancy, as well as the intestines. 2. Name the 3 parts of the true pelvis. The three parts of the true pelvis are the inlet, the pelvic cavity, and the pelvic outlet. 3. What are the 4 classifications of the pelvis? The four classifications of the pelvis are the gynecoid, the android, the anthropoid, and the platypelloid. 4. Concerning the above types of pelvises, what effect does each have on: labor, engagement of the fetal head, and overall birth prognosis? The gynecoid pelvis during labor reduces perineal tears during labor, and contributes to spontaneous delivery. The uterus functions well, reducing in size when it’s supposed to. The fetus also successfully rotates throughout the birth canal early, and completely. The fetal head will engage in the transverse or oblique diameter, meaning the back of the head will face the lateral or diagonal sides of the pelvis such as the pectineal or arcuate line. With the head engaged in these starting positions, the fetus will also be in a slight asynclitism, meaning the fetus’ head will be tipped towards one shoulder, with its body and head not going in a completely straight line downwards. The fetus has good flexion, with his chin tucked in his chest and is in the common occiput anterior position, where the back of his head is facing down and toward the pubic symphysis.

  • General Principles the Acetabular Index and Center-Edge Angles
    Troelson E-Appendix Page 1 of 14 E-Appendix General Principles The acetabular index and center-edge angles following reorientation should correspond as closely as possible to the normal anatomy (acetabular index angle, 0° to10°; center-edge angle, 30° to 40°). It is of equal importance that the surgeon obtain appropriate anteversion of the acetabulum. Assessment of the range of motion and joint stability at the end of the procedure will help the surgeon to evaluate the change in hip joint mechanics. This description of the minimally invasive approach will give the reader an understanding of soft- tissue mobilization, instrument handling, and the performance of the osteotomies. Understanding of the anatomy and utilization of fluoroscopy during surgery are the keys to a safe, minimally invasive periacetabular osteotomy. Pubic Osteotomy Subperiosteal access to the superior ramus of the pubic bone is gained with use of a periosteal elevator. It is important that the pubic osteotomy be performed medially on the superior ramus since the bone otherwise is too thick, making the osteotomy and mobilization difficult or impossible. A curved blunt retractor is placed in the obturator fossa behind the superior ramus of the pubic bone. It is important that this retractor be placed subperiosteally to protect the obturator artery and nerve. A splined retractor is then placed anterior and medial to the site of the osteotomy in order to retract the iliopsoas muscle medially and protect the iliac artery and vein and the femoral nerve (Fig. E1). The superior ramus is then osteotomized under direct visualization with use of a slightly curved osteotome.

    Pelvis and Perineum Peritoneal, subperitoneal and perineal compartmens Assoc. prof. dr. S. Delchev, MD, PhD Pelvic cavity The pelvis is the part of the body surrounded by the pelvic girdle (bony pelvis). The pelvic cavity is the inferiormost part of the abdominopelvic cavity. The pelvic cavity contains: • the rectum, • the urinary bladder and the terminal parts of the ureters • the internal genitalia, • blood vessels • lymphatics • nerves Skeleton of the Pelvis The pelvis (L. pelvis, basin) is formed by • two hip bones (os coxae) joined posteriorly by • the sacrum • the coccyx Joints and Ligaments : • sacroiliac joints and pubic symphysis • sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments • obturator membrane Walls of Pelvic Cavity: Muscles: obturator internus muscle piriformis m. coccygeus m. Openings: • foramen suprapiriforme • foramen infrapiriforme • obturator canal • lesser sciatic foramen Pelvic Cavity The pelvic cavity is funnel-shaped. It is continuous with the abdominal cavity at the pelvic inlet bounded by linea terminalis. Structures marking the boundaries of the pelvic outlet are the: • coccyx, • sacrotuberal lig., • ischial tuberosity, • ischiopubic rami, • pubic symphysis Pelvic Cavity The pelvic cavity is subdivided into: Peritoneal compartment Suberitoneal compartment Perineal compartment (perineum) Peritoneal Cavity of Pelvis The parietal peritoneum lining the abdominal cavity reflects onto the pelvic viscera, remaining separated from the pelvic floor. The peritoneum forms “pockets”: In the male: ♦ The rectovesical pouch and its lateral extensions, the pararectal fossae, are the inferiormost extents of the peritoneal cavity in males. In the female: ♦ The uterus is located between the bladder and rectum, creating uterovesical and rectouterine pouches.
