    THE BONY PELVIS AND ANAL TRIANGLE (Grant's Dissector [16th Ed.] pp. 141-145) TODAY’S GOALS: 1. Identify relevant bony features/landmarks on skeletal materials or pelvic models. 2. Identify the sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments. 3. Describe the organization and divisions of the perineum into two triangles: anal triangle and urogenital triangle 4. Dissect the ischiorectal (ischioanal) fossa and define its boundaries. 5. Identify the inferior rectal nerve and artery, the pudendal (Alcock’s) canal and the external anal sphincter. DISSECTION NOTES: The perineum is the diamond-shaped area between the upper thighs and below the inferior pelvic aperture and pelvic diaphragm. It is divided anatomically into 2 triangles: the anal triangle and the urogenital (UG) triangle (Dissector p. 142, Fig. 5.2). The anal triangle is bounded by the tip of the coccyx, sacrotuberous ligaments, and a line connecting the right and left ischial tuberosities. It contains the anal canal, which pierced the levator ani muscle portion of the pelvic diaphragm. The urogenital triangle is bounded by the ischiopubic rami to the inferior surface of the pubic symphysis and a line connecting the right and left ischial tuberosities. This triangular space contains the urogenital (UG) diaphragm that transmits the urethra (in male) and urethra and vagina (in female). A. Anal Triangle Turn the cadaver into the prone position.

  • 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.

  • The Stoppa Combined with Iliac Fossa Approach for the Treatment of Both-Column Acetabular Fractures Yun Yang†, Chang Zou† and Yue Fang*
    Yang et al. Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research (2020) 15:588 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13018-020-02133-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The Stoppa combined with iliac fossa approach for the treatment of both-column acetabular fractures Yun Yang†, Chang Zou† and Yue Fang* Abstract Background: At present, the choice of surgical approach for both-column fractures is still controversial. The purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy of the Stoppa combined with iliac fossa (S+IF) approach in the treatment of both-column fractures. Methods: In this retrospective case series, 76 patients were included in the study from 2014 to 2018. They were divided into two groups according to the surgical approaches. The differences of intraoperative blood loss, operative time, quality of reduction, clinical outcome, and perioperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results: All patients had undergone the IL approach or the S+IF approach. The average operative time was 156.2 min (110~210 min) in group I and 126.5 min (80~180 min) in group II (P < 0.001). The average blood loss in group I was 784.1 ml, while the average blood loss in group II was 625.3 ml (P = 0.007). According to Matta’s criteria, 28 cases obtained anatomic reduction and 12 cases got imperfect reduction in group I; 21 cases obtained anatomic reduction and 7 cases got imperfect reduction in group II (P > 0.05). The clinical outcome (excellent to good) was 66% in group I versus 69% in group II (P > 0.05).

  • Study of Significance of Total Pelvic Height and Pelvic Width in Sex Determination of Human Innominate Bone in Gujarat Region Sudarshan Gupta*, Kiran Arora **
    Original Article GCSMC J Med Sci Vol (II) No (II) July-December 2013 Study of Significance of Total Pelvic Height and Pelvic Width in Sex Determination of Human Innominate Bone in Gujarat Region Sudarshan Gupta*, Kiran Arora ** Abstract : Introduction : Sex determination of the unknown hip bone either of whole skeleton or any part of it, is always a field of research not only for anatomist but also for forensic expert, anthropologist and archeologist. Hip bone was considered as ideal bone for sex determination after skull.Material and Method : This study was carried out on 100 dried human innominate bones out of them 40 were female and 60 were male bones. Gross morphometric parameters like total pelvic height, pelvic width was measured and ratio of pelvic width and total pelvic height was calculated.Results : Mean value of total pelvic height was higher in male(193.85 mm) compared to female(179.45mm), mean value of pelvic width was also higher in male (137.31 mm ) than female ( 133.24mm). It was found that mean value of ratio between pelvic width and total pelvic height was higher in female (0.74) as compared to male (0.70). The same was found statistically highly significant (P value <0.0001).Conclusion and Recommendation : The finding of this study showed that there were statistically significant gender difference were present in gross morphometric parameters, hence these measurements of the hip bone can be used for sex determination of unknown skeletons and in the forensic science for medicolegal cases. Key Words : Total pelvic height, pelvic width, innominate bone Introduction : total pelvic height, pelvic width, acetabular diameter, pubic Innominate bone is also known as hip bone.

  • Bones of the Appendicular Skeleton
    BONES OF THE APPENDICULAR SKELETON The appendicular skeleton is composed of the 126 bones of the appendages and the pectoral and pelvic girdles, which attach the limbs to the axial skeleton. Although the bones of the upper and lower limbs differ in their functions and mobility, they have the same fundamental plan – each limb is composed of three major segments connected by movable joints. LOWER LIMB Thirty-two (32) separate bones form the bony framework of each lower limb. The lower limbs carry the entire weight of the erect body and are subjected to exceptional forces when we jump or run. Thus, it is not surprising that the bones of the lower limb are thicker and stronger than the comparable bones of the upper limb. Each of the lower limb bones may be described regionally as a bone of the pelvic girdle, thigh, leg, or foot (Figure 7). Figure 7: Bones of the lower limb Pelvic (Hip) Girdle (Marieb / Hoehn – Chapter 7; Pgs. 234 – 238) The pelvic girdle is formed by the paired os coxae (coxal bones). Together with the sacrum and coccyx of the axial skeleton, this group of bones forms the bony pelvis. The ability to bear weight is more important in the pelvic girdle than the pectoral girdle. Thus, the os coxae are heavy and massive with a firm attachment to the axial skeleton. Each os coxa is a result of the fusion of three bones: the ilium, ischium, and pubis. These three bones fuse at the deep hemispherical socket, the acetabulum, which receives the femur. Figure 8: Right os coxa, lateral and medial views A.

  • The Appendicular Skeleton
    Unit 2 Lecture 6 Unit 2 Lecture 6 THE APPENDICULAR SKELETON The APPENDICULAR SKELETON consists of the pectoral and pelvic girdles and the upper and lower extremities. The PECTORAL (SHOULDER) GIRDLE attaches the bones of the upper extremities to the axial skeleton and supports the shoulder. The Clavicle serves as a brace to keep the arm away from the thorax. It has two curves (one convex, one concave); juncture of these curves is where most fractures to the clavicle occur. The Scapula (shoulder blade) are broad triangular bones with spines, acromium processes (articulates with the clavicle), bodies, coracoid processes, glenoid cavities (fossa) receives the head of the humerus. They provide many points for muscle attachment. The UPPER EXTREMITY consists of 60 bones (thirty per limb) that provide the framework for muscle attachment and functions in levers that move the limb and its parts. The humerus is the longest bone in the upper extremity. It has a head (proximal end), anatomical neck (former site of the epiphyseal plate), greater and lesser tubercle and intertubercular sulcus, deltoid tuberosity (point of attachment for deltoid muscle), a capitulum (articulates with the head of the radius) radial fossa (receives the head of the radius when forearm is bent), a trochlea: looks like a spool (articulates with the ulna), and a coronoid fossa (receives part of the ulna when forearm is bent), body (main shaft), olecranon fossa (receives olecranon when forearm is extended), medial (“funny bone”) and lateral epicondyles (point of muscle attachment). The surgical neck is the site of most fractures. The ulna and is longer than the radius and overlaps the humerus posteriorly.

Rommens1 Received: 4 September 2018 / Published online: 21 May 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Introduction The use of trans-sacral implants to treat fractures of the sacrum is limited by the variable pelvic anatomy. We were interested in how many trans-sacral implants can be placed per pelvis? If a trans-sacral implant cannot be placed in S1, where is the cortex perforated, and is the use of sacroiliac screws safe in these pelves? Materials and methods 3D pelvic models were created from CT scans of 156 individuals without fractures (92 European and 64 Japanese, 79 male and 77 female, mean age 66.7 ± 13.7 years). Trans-sacral implants with a diameter of 7.3 mm were positioned virtually with and without a surrounding safe zone of 12 mm diameter. Results Fifty-one percent of pelves accommodated trans-sacral implants in S1 with a safe zone. Twenty-two percent did not ofer enough space in S1 for an implant even when ignoring the safe zone. Every pelvis had sufcient space for a trans-sacral implant in S2, in 78% including a safe zone as well. In S1, implant perforation was observed in the sacral ala and iliac fossa in 69%, isolated iliac fossa perforation in 23% and perforation of the sacral ala in 8%.
