PERINEUM TO LOWER LIMB

• The length of the prostate is 3 cm.
• The false pelvis is bounded posteriorly by the Tredelenburg's test, which is used to test hip joint stability.
• The rectum begins in front of the fovea capitis, in the center of the head of the femur.
• The ureter is a muscular tube that extends from the kidney to the posterior surface of the bladder.
• The rectouterine pouch, also known as the pouch of Douglas, is located in the pelvic region.
• The vastus medialis is a muscle that functions to stabilize the patella.
• The femoral artery enters the thigh from behind the inguinal ligament, as a continuation of the external iliac artery, and descends almost vertically toward the adductor tubercle of the femur, ending at the opening in the adductor magnus muscle by entering the popliteal space as the popliteal artery.
• The sacrospinous ligament is attached by its base to the lateral part of the sacrum and coccyx and by its apex to the spine of the ischium.
• The obturator nerve terminates by supplying the knee joint.
• The nerve that supplies the inferior gemellus is the nerve to the quadratus femoris.
• The superficial inguinal nodes are the lymph vessels of the buttocks of the skin that drain into the popliteal space.
• The pelvic brim is bounded anteriorly by the pubic symphysis.
• The gluteus maximus muscle arises from the posterior iliac crest and inserts into the lesser trochanter of the femur and the superior aspect of the gluteus medius and minimus.
• • The iliac tubercle lies about how many inches from the anterior superior spine? 2
• Inferiorly, each seminal vesicle narrows and joins the vascular deferens of the same side to form the ejaculatory duct.
• The lymph vessels of the buttocks of the skin drain into the superficial inguinal nodes.
• The ovarian artery arises from the abdominal aorta at the level of the 1st lumbar vertebra.
• The acetabulum is the part of the hip bone where the femur articulates.
• The stability of the hip joint when a person stands on one leg with the foot of the opposite leg raised above the ground depends on the gluteus medius muscle.
• The common insertion of the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius is the ligamentum patallae into the tubercle of the tibia.
• The femoral artery descends almost vertically toward the adductor tubercle of the femur and ends at the opening in the adductor magnus muscle by entering the popliteal space as the popliteal artery.
• The femur bone articulates with the acetabulum to the hip joint.
• External iliac nodes are the efferent lymph vessels from the deep inguinal nodes that ascend into the abdominal cavity through the femoral canal and drain into the Tredelenburg's node.
• The coccygeus muscle is a small triangular muscle that arises from the spine of the ischium and is inserted into the lower end of the sacrum and into the coccyx.
• The sacrum consists of five rudimentary vertebrae fused together to form a single wedge-shaped bone with a forward concavity.
• The femur articulates below with the tibia and patella to form the knee joint.
• The length of the sigmoid colon is 10-15 inches.
• The 1st lumbar vertebra is the vertebra below the sacrum.
• The piriformis muscle arises from the front of the lateral mass of the sacrum and leaves the pelvis to enter the gluteal region by passing laterally through the greater sciatic foramen.
• The Caldwell and Moloy classification of pelvis is the typical female pelvis.
• The femoral artery enters the thigh from behind the inguinal ligament, as a continuation of the external iliac artery.
