- 0:06Hi everyone, here in this lecture I am going to
- 0:10deal about maternal pelvis. And this is the
- 0:13important topic for practical purpose in all the
- 0:16nursing courses. So, the maternal pelvis is a gynecoid
- 0:19type in which the pelvic brim is rounded structure,
- 0:23which is formed anteriorly by the symphysis pubis
- 0:27posteriorly by the sacrum and the coccyx and
- 0:30laterally it is formed by two hip bones and hip
- 0:33bone is formed by three bones, which is fused
- 0:36later on and these are
- 0:38the superior portion, it is formed by the ilium
- 0:43the lower or inferior portion is formed by ischium and
- 0:47the anterior portion is formed by pubic bone.
- 0:50So, this is termed as pelvic girdle because it
- 0:54create contact between an axial skeletal system with
- 0:58the appendicular skeletal system. So, here in this
- 1:01lecture, I'm going to deal about the various
- 1:04aspects of the maternal pelvis in which there are the
- 1:07bones, joints, ligaments, the diameters which are
- 1:12showing the relationship with the fetus So, let's
- 1:15have a look on the bones. There are the two
- 1:19Hip bones which are formed by the ilium ischium and
- 1:24the pubic bone. So, first we talked about the
- 1:27ilium. So ilium forms the flared part which is
- 1:31present on the superior aspect and its superior
- 1:35border is form the iliac crest, which ends at the
- 1:40blunt end and it is termed as anterior superior
- 1:43iliac spine and just below to that is the another
- 1:47spine is anterior inferior iliac spine and
- 1:51posteriorly this iliac crest ends at the posterior
- 1:56superior iliac spine and lower it ends with the
- 2:00posterior inferior iliac spine and there is a
- 2:06notch on the posterior aspect and this notch is
- 2:09termed as greater sciatic notch through which
- 2:12the greatest nerve in our body that the sciatic
- 2:15nerve passes on the posterior aspect there is a
- 2:19roughened area and it is termed as iliac tuberosity
- 2:23and this part gives attachment for the various
- 2:26muscles. Then, the medial or the anterior surface
- 2:31forms a depressed portion, which is termed as
- 2:35iliac fossa. And inferior to iliac fossa
- 2:40is
- 2:41one line which runs superiorly or anteriorly. And
- 2:45it is the arcuate line later on it has got a
- 2:49clinical significance because it forms important
- 2:52landmark in pelvic brim and medially there is an
- 2:56articulating area in this ilium, which
- 2:59articulates with the sacrum and form the strongest
- 3:02joint in the body, that the sacral iliac joint
- 3:07this ilium has got two part the superior part is
- 3:11termed as Ala and the inferior part is termed as
- 3:16body which attaches with the ischium. So, the next
- 3:21part comes the ischium, Ischium has got two parts, the
- 3:27body which consists of the roughened portion, and
- 3:31it is termed as ischial tuberosity. And superior
- 3:35to that is or anterior to that is the ramus and this
- 3:41ramus and the pubic bone forms a opening. And
- 3:45this is termed as obturator foramen, which is covered
- 3:48by the obturator membrane through which blood
- 3:50vessels and nerve passes and posterior to ischium is one
- 3:57projection is there and it is termed as ischial
- 4:00spine and it has got clinical significance through
- 4:04which you can easily assess the station of head.
- 4:08The anterior hip bone is formed by pubic bone and
- 4:12pubic bone has got three parts, the superior ramus
- 4:17the inferior ramus and the body part. The body
- 4:21part where the two rami are meet together. The
- 4:25anterior border of the pubic bone is the pubic
- 4:28crest slightly lateral to that is the pubic
- 4:34tubercle and from pubic tubercle there is a line
- 4:38which runs posteriorly or laterally is the pectineal
- 4:42line which later on merges with this arcuate line
- 4:45and form iliopectineal line. Together the three
- 4:50bones hip bone, that is the pubic ischium or ilium
- 4:55forms a cup or socket like structure. And this is
- 4:59the acetabulum and this is a socket like structure through
- 5:04which the head of the femur is attaches or
- 5:07articulate with it. So, that you can easily move
- 5:10your limb in any of the direction and there is a
- 5:13notch over here and it is termed as acetabular
- 5:17notch through which blood vessels and nerves
- 5:19enters or exit. So, here we have seen the three
- 5:24hip bones and it is formed by the ilium that is
- 5:29the superior flared part ischium that is the
- 5:33inferior and posterior part through which you can
- 5:36easily sit and the anterior portion which is
- 5:39formed by the 2 pubic bone. Then comes the
- 5:44posterior aspect of pelvic bone, which is the part
- 5:47of axial skeletal system that is the sacrum and
- 5:52the sacrum is the triangle shaped bone and the
- 5:56sacrum is formed by five fused vertebra, and the
- 6:00anterior border is smooth and curved. And in
- 6:05female, this bone is wider or shorter posteriorly
- 6:11it is more roughened area, because it gives
- 6:14attachment for the various muscles. The superior
- 6:18broader part of the sacrum is termed as base and
- 6:22the inferior narrow portion is termed as a apex on
- 6:27this superior part, there is anteriorly projected
- 6:31structure and it is termed as sacral promontory
- 6:35and posteriorly there are two articulating surface
- 6:38area which attaches to the lumbar vertebra and
- 6:42forms lumbosacral joint and on the lateral
- 6:47aspects, there are two auricular shaped structure
- 6:50which extends laterally from sacral promontory,
- 6:53these are termed as sacral ala anteriorly there
- 6:58are four transverse line and these transverse lines
- 7:04showing the fusion of vertebral bodies of sacrum.
- 7:08And at the end of these transverse line, there are the
- 7:12four pair of anterior foramina and these
- 7:16foramina are continuation with the posterior
- 7:19foramina through which blood vessels or nerve
- 7:22enter or exit posteriorly on the medial
- 7:26aspect in the sacrum there is a sacral crest and
- 7:31it is formed by the fusion of the spinous process of
- 7:35the sacral vertebra and it gives attachment for
- 7:38the ligaments or the muscles at the apex part of
- 7:41the sacrum there is one opening and it is termed
- 7:44as sacral hiatus and it is continuation with the
- 7:49sacral canal and this sacral canal is continuous
- 7:51with the vertebral column. And on the either side
- 7:55of this hiatus or opening are the two projection
- 7:59and it is an attachment for the ligaments to connect
- 8:01it with the coccyx. So, it is a triangular shaped
- 8:06bone & it forms a part of axial skeletal system
- 8:11which connect the sacrum to the ilium and form the
- 8:14strongest joint sacroiliac joint and lower to that
- 8:20is one triangular-shaped bone is termed as coccyx
- 8:24and it is formed by 4 fused vertebra and this
- 8:27coccyx is attaches to the sacrum by the
- 8:31sacrococcygeal joint. So, the broader part of this coccyx
- 8:35is termed as base and the pointed end portion is
- 8:40termed as apex. On the posterior aspect, there
- 8:44are the coccygeal cornua and this cornua attaches
- 8:47with a ligament with the sacrum and in female
- 8:52this coccyx is directed inferiorly and this
- 8:57joint is more flexible in females. So that fetus
- 9:01can easily pass through it. So here in this model,
- 9:05we have seen the bones and the bones are the two
- 9:08hip bones ilium ischium and the pubic bone and
- 9:13posteriorly there is one sacrum and one coccyx now
- 9:17comes the joint and joints are the point where the
- 9:20two bones meet together. And there is one symphysis pubis
- 9:24and it is present in between the two pubic
- 9:29bone and there are the paired sacroiliac joint. So
- 9:34it articulates the sacrum with the ilium on both
- 9:38sides. So it is the strongest joint in the body
- 9:41sacroiliac joint and there is one sacrococcygeal joint
- 9:45which is more flexible in female as it
- 9:48provides room to the pelvic outlet so that fetus
- 9:52can easily pass through it. Next comes the
- 9:54ligaments and these are the structure which helps
- 9:57the joints together and there is One inter pubic
- 10:01ligament, which attaches or which is present in
- 10:05between the two pubic bone and it is
- 10:07fibrocartilaginous disc. There are the various
- 10:11sacral iliac ligament, which are present on the
- 10:14anterior and the posterior aspect, which held the
- 10:17sacroiliac joint together. And there is sacrococcygeal
- 10:22ligament, which attaches the sacrum to the
- 10:26coccyx, and it is also present on the anterior or
- 10:29the posterior aspect and another 2 are the
- 10:35sacrotuberous ligament, and it extends from the sacrum
- 10:40to the ischial tuberosity. So, sacrotuberous
- 10:42ligament,
- 10:43and there are the sacrospinous ligament, which
- 10:47attaches the sacrum to the ischial spine on the
- 10:51both side. So, these are the ligaments there is
- 10:55very limited movement in between the joints in non
- 10:58pregnant state, but at the time of pregnancy
- 11:00because of the release of hormones causes the
- 11:03ligaments to be softened and increases the
- 11:06presenting diameter of the pelvis so that the
- 11:09fetus can easily accommodate the pelvic canal and
- 11:13it can easily pass through it. Next comes the
- 11:17difference between false pelvis and true pelvis.
- 11:20And in false pelvis, there is no exact pelvic
- 11:23measurement. And it is bounded posteriorly by the
- 11:27lumbar vertebra, laterally by the iliac crest and
- 11:32the iliac fossa, or anteriorly by the anterior
- 11:35abdominal wall. So, you can't measure it
- 11:38precisely, but it gives support to the uterus at
- 11:41the time of pregnancy. But in the true pelvis, it
- 11:45has got the exact pelvic measurement and it has
- 11:50three parts that is the pelvic brim. So I'm
- 11:54pointing the marks. So this area is termed as the
- 11:59pelvic brim or the inlet. Then comes the cavity
- 12:03and it is round structure and forms the curved
- 12:06canal and the last bony region is termed as pelvic
- 12:10outlet. First we deal about the pelvic brim or the
- 12:14inlet and this is the area where the fetus come
- 12:18in contact with the maternal pelvis. So there are
- 12:21the various bony points on this, and these are
- 12:25termed as landmarks. So from anterior to posterior,
- 12:29there are the nine landmarks and these are upper
- 12:33border of symphysis pubis, pubic crest, pubic
- 12:38tubercle, pectineal line, iliopectineal eminence,
- 12:45iliopectineal line, sacroiliac joint, anterior
- 12:50border of sacral ala, and the sacral promontory.
- 12:54So these nine landmarks are same in both sides.
- 12:57And this area is termed as pelvic brim or inlet.
- 13:02The next comes the pelvic cavity, and it is rounded
- 13:06structure, which is bounded above by the pelvic
- 13:09brim and below by the obstetrical outlet. And
- 13:14the last bony part is the pelvic outlet. So here
- 13:18we'll discuss about the diameter of these all
- 13:21three parts. So, in pelvic brim, there are the
- 13:25three diameters and these are anterior posterior
- 13:28diameter, transverse diameter, and the oblique
- 13:32diameter. So, in the anterior-posterior diameter,
- 13:36there are the again three diameters and these are true
- 13:40conjugate or you can say anatomical conjugate, the
- 13:46obstetric conjugate and the diagonal conjugate.
- 13:49So, first we deal the true or anatomical conjugate
- 13:53and this is the distance between the midpoint of
- 13:56sacral promontory till the upper border of
- 14:00symphysis pubis and this measures about 11
- 14:03centimeter then comes the obstetric conjugate and the
- 14:09obstetric conjugate is the exact space available for
- 14:12the fetus to pass through the pelvic brim and enters into
- 14:16the pelvic cavity. So this point extends from
- 14:19midpoint of sacral promontory to the midline of
- 14:26symphysis pubis, where a projection is there in
- 14:30the middle till the point ends up. So this
- 14:34distance is about 10 centimeters. Next comes the
- 14:38diagonal conjugate and this is the distance from
- 14:42midpoint of sacral promontory, till the lower
- 14:46border of the symphysis pubis
- 14:47Here it is. So it is about 12 centimeters.
- 14:53So this diagonal conjugate has got clinical
- 14:55significance because you can easily measure it
- 14:57through bimanual examination. The next diameter in
- 15:01pelvic brim is the oblique diameter and these are
- 15:04the two right and left, right indicate the right
- 15:09side of the maternal pelvis and it starts from
- 15:12right sacroiliac joint till the opposite side of
- 15:15iliopectineal eminence, it means the left side. So,
- 15:19it is about 12 centimeter and the left oblique
- 15:23diameter extends from left sacroiliac joint till
- 15:27right iliopectineal eminence. So, these are
- 15:30the same both side left and right. The third
- 15:34diameter is transverse diameter and the transverse
- 15:37diameter extends from the farthest point between
- 15:41the 2 iliopectineal line. So, it is the widest
- 15:45diameter in pelvic brim This measures about 13
- 15:48centimeter. Next comes the pelvic cavity. This
- 15:53cavity is formed by a curved canal in which the
- 15:57anterior depth is about 4 centimeter which is
- 16:00formed by symphysis pubis, and its posterior depth
- 16:04is formed by sacrum and coccyx which is curved and
- 16:08it is about 12 centimeter So, all together it form
- 16:12the curved canal and it is round in structure. Its
- 16:17anterior posterior diameter extends from the
- 16:21junction of second or third sacral vertebra, here
- 16:25it is, till the midpoint of symphysis pubis, here
- 16:32it is the midpoint of symphysis pubis and this
- 16:35measuring about 12 centimeter it's transverse
- 16:39diameter or oblique diameter cannot be measured
- 16:42exactly because the points are overlying to the
- 16:45soft tissues. So you can say roughly the overall
- 16:50diameter of this pelvic cavity is about 12
- 16:52centimeter. Next comes the last bony part that is
- 16:57the pelvic outlet in which there are the two
- 17:00conjugates. And these are obstetrical conjugate
- 17:03and anatomical conjugate. And in obstetrical
- 17:07conjugate, there are the two diameters and the
- 17:11anterior posterior diameter in obstetrical
- 17:13conjugate extends from the tip of sacrum to the
- 17:18lower border of symphysis pubis. So it is the
- 17:21anterior posterior diameter and it is about 11
- 17:25centimeter. The transverse diameter of obstetrical
- 17:30conjugate is bispinous diameter, and it extends
- 17:35in between the two ischial spines, and it is about
- 17:3810.5 centimeter. In the true or anatomical
- 17:43conjugate, the anterior posterior diameter extends
- 17:47from the tip of coccyx till the lower border of
- 17:51symphysis pubis and it measures about 13
- 17:54centimeter and its transverse diameter extend in
- 17:58between the inner border of ischial tuberosity and
- 18:02it is about 11 centimeter. So, the obstetrical
- 18:06conjugate has clinical importance because this
- 18:08is the exact pelvic outlet through which the
- 18:11fetus must pass. So, here in this video, we have
- 18:15seen the practical aspect of maternal pelvis. And
- 18:19this pelvic bone forms a bridge between the axial
- 18:23skeletal system with the appendicular skeletal
- 18:25system, and here, the sacrum and the coccyx forms the
- 18:29axial skeletal system part and the femur, which
- 18:32attaches with the acetabulum forms the part of
- 18:35appendicular skeletal system. So, these three hip
- 18:38bones form a bridge like structure, which create a
- 18:41contact between axial with the appendicular
- 18:43skeletal system and it also protects the female
- 18:47internal genital organs which lies inside the
- 18:49pelvic cavity. So thank you for watching this
