  • infundibulum
    This the funnel-shaped lateral end that projects beyond the broad ligament and overlies the ovary:
  • platypelloid
    The type pf pelvis present in only about 2% of women and is a wide pelvis flattened at the brim, with the promontory of the sacrum pushed forward
  • superior rectal artery
    What vessel is a direct continuation of the inferior mesenteric artery and is the chief artery supplying the mucous membrane of the rectum?
  • False Pelvis
    This is of little clinical importance. It is bounded behind by the lumbar vertebrae, laterally by the iliac fossae and the iliacus muscles, and in front by the lower part of the anterior abdominal wall.
  • gynecoid
    Majority of the female pelvis is:
  • colonoscopy
    This is a direct inspection of the lining of the entire colon including the cecum, an important diagnostic tool for mucosal polyps and colon cancer.
  • pudendal nerve 4th and 5th sacral nerve

    Nerve supply of the levator ani
  • superior gluteal nerve
    Nerve supply of the gluteus minimus muscle:
  • sciatic nerve
    What is the largest nerve in the body?
  • prostate
    This produces a thin, milky fluid containing acid phosphatase and citric acid that is added to the seminal fluid at the time of ejaculation:
  • seminal vesicles
    Part of the male genital organs which are two lobulated organs lying on the posterior surface of the bladder. These produce a secretion that is added to the seminal fluid and nourishes the spermatozoa:
  • pelvic cavity
    This is the space between the pelvic inlet and outlet.
  • android
    This is a funnel-shaped pelvis with a contracted outlet.
  • S3 vertebra
    The rectum, begins at the level of:
  • perineal nerve
    This supplies the urogenital triangle:
  • inferior gluteal nerve
    Branch of the sacral plexus that branches to the lower limb and leave the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen, EXCEPT:
  • anus
    The lower opening of the anal canal, lies in the midline, and on each side is the ischiorectal fossa:
  • intramural part
    This is the narrowest part of the uterine tube:
  • inferior hypogastric plexus
    Nerve supply of the urinary bladder:
