STRUCTURE OF THE PELVIC WALL

• Bones of the Pelvis– Sacrum

– Coccyx

– Innominate bone• Ilium, ischium, & pubis

– Joints & ligaments

• Divisions of the Pelvis– True & false pelvis

• Pelvic Inlet Measurements for Obstetrics

• Sexually Dimorphic Pelvis– Distinction between the female & male pelvis

• Walls of the True Pelvis

• Pelvic Diaphragm

• Endopelvic Fascia

• Lumbosacral Plexus
