|
What are the boundaries of the pelvic inlet?
|
Dorsal border – sacral promontory

|
What inserts on the pecten pubis?
|
rectus abdominis and pre pubic tendon
|
|
What are the boundaries to the pelvic outlet?
|

Lateral borders – superficial gluteal mm., muscles of the pelvic diaphragm and sacrotuberous ligament Ventral boundary – ischiatic arch |
|
What does the pelvic canal course between? Which end is wider?
|
Between pelvic inlet and outlet
Short ventrally and long dorsally. |
|
Which part of the pelvic bone is palpable?
|
The tuber sacrale.
|
|
What are the two sacroiliac joint articulation types?
|
The auricular surfaces on the wings of the sacrum and ilium are covered by hyaline cartilage
Dorsal to the auricular surface, fibrocartilage unites the wings of the sacrum and ilium |
|
What comprises the pelvic symphysis in quadrapeds?
THIS IS NEED TO KNOW!!! |
The ischial symphysis and pubic symphysis.
NEED TO KNOW!!! |
|
What species does this pelvis belong to? How do you know?
|
Feline.
As a general rule, the bones will be straighter than canine bones. |
|
What's the longest bone in the body?
|
The femur
|
|
What is the ball of the femur called? Is it proximal or distal? Medial or lateral?
|
It is the head of the femur, it is proximal and medial.
|
|
What type of joint is the coxofemoral joint?
What are the ligaments associated with it? |
A spheroidal synovial joint.
The ligament of the femoral head (or round ligament of the femur) and the transverse acetabular ligament. |
|
Where does the round ligament of the femur course between?
|
From the acetabular fossa to the fovea capitis femoris
|
|
Where does the transverse acetabular ligament course between?
|
Passes over the acetabular notch
|
|
Look at all of the things you can see in this radiograph!
|
Awesome!
|
|
What are the sesamoids of the femur called?
|
Fabellae
|
|
How do you tell the medial from lateral surface of the tibia? The cranial from caudal?
|
The medial malleolus is on the medial side.
The cranial view has the tibial tuberosity. |
|
What type of joint is the stifle? The patellar joint? The tibia/fibia joint?
|
Condylar
Sledge Plane |
|
