Pelvis Anatomy Long Qs.- PMU- 2nd Year, 2nd Semester

While performing a hysterectomy, the resident must ligate the uterine artery. To avoid iatrogenic injury to the ureters, she must be aware that the ureter passes [blank_start]under[blank_end] the uterine artery at the level of the [blank_start]cervix[blank_end]

During a hysterectomy, care must be taken in ligation of the uterine vessels because they cross the [blank_start]ureter[blank_end] superiorly

Blood supply to the superior portions of the bladder typically arises from the [blank_start]umbilical[blank_end] arteries

The pelvic splanchnic nerves primarily carry [blank_start]preganglionic parasympathetics[blank_end] to the [blank_start]inferior hypogastric[blank_end] plexus

The boundaries of the perineum include: A. Anterior: [blank_start]pubic symphysis[blank_end] B. Anterolateral: [blank_start]ischiopubic rami[blank_end] C. Lateral: [blank_start]ischial tuberosities[blank_end] D. Posterolateral: [blank_start]sacrotuberous ligament[blank_end] E. Posterior: [blank_start]coccyx[blank_end]

The urogenital triangle is the anterior subdivision of perineum, bounded by: (alphabetical) A. [blank_start]Ischiopubic Rami[blank_end] B. Line between the [blank_start]two ischial tuberosities[blank_end] C. [blank_start]Pubic symphysis[blank_end]

The anal triangle is the posterior subdivision of perineum bounded by: (alphabetical) A. [blank_start]Coccyx[blank_end] B. Line between the [blank_start]two ischial tuberosities[blank_end] C. [blank_start]Sacrotuberous ligament[blank_end]

The ischioanal (ischiorectal) fossa is bounded by: A. Anterior: [blank_start]Perineal membrane[blank_end] B. Lateral: [blank_start]internal obturator[blank_end] muscle C. Medial: [blank_start]Levator ani[blank_end] and [blank_start]external anal sphincter[blank_end] D. Posterior: [blank_start]Gluteus maximus[blank_end] and [blank_start]sacrotuberous ligament[blank_end] E. Inferior: [blank_start]Skin[blank_end]
