Pelvic outlet

It has the following boundaries:

• anteriorly: the pubic arch
• laterally: the ischial tuberosities
• posterolaterally: the inferior margin of the sacrotuberous ligament
• posteriorly: the anterior border of the middle of the coccyx.^[1]

These eminences are separated by three notches:

• one in front, the pubic arch, formed by the convergence of the inferior rami of the ischium and pubis on either side.
• The other notches, one on either side, are formed by the sacrum and coccyx behind, the ischium in front, and the ilium above; they are called the sciatic notches; in the natural state they are converted into foramina by the sacrotuberous and sacrospinous ligaments.

When the ligaments are in situ, the inferior aperture of the pelvis is lozenge-shaped, bounded as follows:

• in front, by the pubic arcuate ligament and the inferior rami of the pubes and ischia
• laterally, by the ischial tuberosities
• behind, by the sacrotuberous ligaments and the tip of the coccyx.
