The pelvis is a basin-shaped structure formed from four bones - the sacrum, coccyx, and left and right innominate bones. It connects the spine to the lower limbs and protects internal pelvic organs. The pelvis has three openings - the pelvic brim, cavity, and outlet - through which the fetus passes during childbirth. There are different types of pelvises including gynaecoid, anthropoid, and android, with the gynaecoid shape most suitable for birth. Deformities such as contracted, rachitic, and asymmetric pelvises can complicate childbirth.
This topic includes difference between female and male pelvis, various pelvis types, general description of pelvis bones, division of pelvis, landmarks of pelvis, plane, axis, sacral angle, diameters of inlet, cavity and outlet.

Hydatidiform Mole (HM) is a rare mass or growth that forms inside the uterus at the beginning of a pregnancy. It is a type of gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD).
When a normal sperm cell fertilizes one of these oocytes, the resulting embryo has only one set of chromosomes. Because the embryo has no genes from the mother, the pregnancy cannot develop normally, resulting in a hydatidiform mole.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

Two sacroiliac joints
One pubic symphysis joint
One sacrococcygeal joint
15. TWO SACROILIAC JOINTS
These are slightly movable joints
formed where the ilium joints,
first two sacral vertebrae on
either side.
They connect the spine to the
pelvis & are the strongest joints
in body.
16. ONE PUBIC SYMPHYSIS JOINT
It is a cartilaginous joint
between two pubic
bones.
18. PELVIC LIGAMENTS
The pelvic bones are held together with ligaments.
Sacro iliac ligament- it pass in front of and behind
each sacroiliac joint.
Pubic ligament- it connect the top of pubic bones.
Sacro tuberous ligament- one ligament on each side ,
run from sacrum to the ischial tuberosity

vertebrae, Anteriorly – the abdominal wall and
inguinal ligament
It protects the abdominal organs. It has no obstetrical
importance except that it provides certain landmarks
for external pelvimetry.
22. TRUE PELVIS
The true pelvis is the bony canal through which
the fetus passes during birth.
It has three parts-
BRIM CAVITY OUTLET
23. THE PELVIC BRIM OR INLET

Diagonal conjugate- distance between lower border of
symphysis pubis to mid point on sacral promontory it is 12 cm.
Obstetrical conjugate- it is distance between midpoint of sacral
promontory to prominent bony projection in mid line of
