Myology of the
Pelvis
1
Pelvic Girdle
• Pelvic girdle: consists of the two hipbones (coxal bones)
– Function of the pelvic girdle is to attach the lower extremity to
the trunk
– Hipbones are united anteriorly at the pubic symphysis (an
amphiarthrosis)
• Hipbones:
– Consist of three separate bones:
• Ilium
• Ischium
• Pubis
– All three bones unite in a depression known as the acetabulum
which is the socket for the femoral head.
2
Ilium
• Superior part of the pelvic bone
• Anatomy:
– Iliac crest: superior border of the ilium
– Spines: serve as points of muscle attachment
• Anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS): anterior endpoint of
the iliac crest
• Anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS): spine below the ASIS
• Posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS): posterior endpoint of
the iliac crest
• Posterior inferior iliac spine (PIIS): spine inferior to PSIS
– Greater sciatic notch: Indentation below the PIIS, allows
passage of the sciatic nerve
– Iliac fossa: concavity on medial surface for the iliacus muscle.
– Auricular surface: on medial side for articulation with the
3
sacrum, forming the sacroiliac joint
Ischium
• Inferior and posterior portion of hipbone
• Anatomy:
– Ischial spine: pointed projection above the ischial tuberosity,
serves as a point of muscle attachment
– Lesser sciatic notch: small indentation below the ischial spine
– Ischial tuberosity: large rough quadrilateral process forming
the inferior part of the ischium.
• In the erect sitting position body rest on these tuberosities
– Ramus: branch of bone extending toward the pubic ramus
– Obturator foramen: largest foramen in the skeleton which is
closed up by fibrous membrane
4
Pubic bone
• Located on the anterior inferior portion of hipbone
• Anatomy:
– Superior ramus: part of pubis lying between the symphysis
and acetabulum; forming the upper part of obturator foramen
– Inferior ramus: part extending down from symphysis; unites
with ischium
– Pubic crest: upper margin of superior ramus
– Pubic tubercle: rounded process at the end of the crest

Pelvis
• Together with sacrum and coccyx, the two hipbones form the
pelvis.
• Anatomy:
– Pelvic brim (inlet): boundary of aperture leading into the true
pelvis.
• Formed by pubic crests, iliopectinial lines, and sacral
promontory
• Size and shape of the inlet have obstetrical importance
– If diameter is to small, infant skull cannot enter the true
pelvis for birth
– False pelvis: broad, shallow space above the pelvic brim,
considered part of the abdominal cavity
– True pelvis: area below pelvic brim, contains pelvic organs
– Pelvic outlet: irregular circumference marking the lower limits
of the true pelvis, bounded by the coccyx and the two ischial
7
tuberosities.
Anatomical Review: Pelvic Girdle
Def: Pelvic Girdle: Consists of the two
hipbones. These are also known as innominate or
coxal bones. Pelvic girdle functions to attach the
lower limb to the trunk
8
Proximal Femur
• Femur is the longest, heaviest, and strongest bone in the body
• Anatomy:
– Shaft: main portion of the femur
• Angles medially, bringing the knees closer to the midline
• The angle of convergence is greater in females because the
female pelvis is broader
– Head: rounded end on the proximal end of femur
• Articulates with the acetabulum forming the
acetabulofemoral joint.
– Fovea capitis: small depression in the center of the head
• Contains the ligament of the head of the femur to the
acetabulum
– Neck: constricted portion distal to the head
9
• Common site of femoral fracture in the elderly
Proximal Femur (cont)
• Anatomy (continued)
– Greater trochanter: large protuberance inferior and lateral to the
head. Point of attachment for many pelvic muscles.
– Lesser trochanter: smaller protuberance located inferiorly and
medial to the greater trochanter
– Intertrochanteric line: line between the trochanters on the
anterior surface; point of muscle attachment
– Intertrochanteric crest: thicker line between the trochanters on
the posterior surface; point of muscle attachment
– Gluteal tuberosity: vertical ridge on the shaft inferior to the
intertrochanteric crest
– Linea aspera: ridge of bone on the posterior shaft of the femur

Articular Anatomy: Pelvis
Made of four joints:
Pubic symphysis: Articulation between the two pubic bones. A
semi-movable joint containing a fibrocartilage disc.
Sacroiliac joints: (2) joints between the medial hip bones and the
lateral aspect of the sacrum.
Lumbosacral joints: articulation between the L5 and the sacrum.
Allows for flexion/extension and some lateral rotation.
Sacrococcygeal joints: articulation between sacrum and coccyx.
Generally moveable in children and fixed in adults.
Acetabulofemoral joint: ball and socket joint between the
acetabulum and the head of the femur. Commonly known as the
“hip joint”
12
Soft Tissue of the hip joint
Articular Capsule: very dense/strong
tissue extending from rim of the
acetabulum to the neck of the femur
(considered one of the strongest
ligaments in the body)
Iliofemoral Ligament: (A.K.A. “Y
ligament”) thickened portion of the
articular capsule, extending from the
AIIS to the intertrochanteric line of the
femur. Functions to limits extension of
the hip joint.
Pubofemoral Ligament: Thickened
portion of the articular capsule
extending from the pubic ramus to the
neck of the femur. Functions to limit
abduction of the hip joint.
13
Soft Tissue of the Hip
Ischiofemoral Ligament: thickened
portion of the articular capsule
extending from the ischium to the
neck of the femur. Functions to limit
abduction of the hip joint
Ligament of the head of the femur:
flat, triangular band extending from
the acetabulum to the head of the
femur. (See slide 15)
Acetabular Labrum: Fibrocartilage
rim attached to the margin of the
acetabulum that enhances the depth
of the acetabulum. (See slide 15)
Trochanteric Bursa: overlies the
greater trochanter. Reduces friction
between greater trochanter and
gluteal muscles.

Palpation of the Pelvis and
Hip
ASIS: Supine: place your hands on the sides of the abdomen, below the level of the umbilicus.
Gently compress inferiorly until you feel the superficial tip of the ASIS.
AIIS: Supine: flex your partner’s knee and again locate the ASIS. Slide inferiorly and medially about
one inch and palpate for a small prominence deep to the overlying tendons.
Iliac Crest: Supine: flex your partner’s knees and place your fingers on the ASIS. Slide your fingers
posteriorly along the iliac crest. Curl your fingers medially and palpate the iliac fossa.
PSIS: Prone: find the iliac crests again and follow them posteriorly to the sacrum. The PSIS will feel
like a small prominence in the shallow depression.
Sacrum: Prone: find both PSIS’s again, move fingers medially and palpate the posterior sacrum.
Along the midline of the sacrum you will feel the sacral spinous processes.
Sacroiliac Joint: Prone: Return to the PSIS’s again and then move inferior and medial. Have your
partner bend the knee and then externally rotate the thigh. Feel for the sacroiliac joint space
becoming wider with the external rotation.
17
Palpation of the Pelvis and
Hip (cont.)
Coccyx: Prone: continuing from the posterior sacrum move your fingers inferiorly
toward the gluteal cleft feeling for the bumpy surface of the coccyx. Only the base
of the coccyx can be felt from this position. The apex is usually dipped to far anterior.
Greater Trochanter: Prone: from the iliac crest palpate down the sides to the
wide point of the femurs. This is the greater trochanter.
Ischial Tuberosity: Prone: locate the gluteal fold. At the mid-point of the fold
push up superiorly and medially until you feel the large tuberosity.
