The 12 cranial nerves originate from the brainstem, and mainly control the functions of the anatomic structures of the head with some exceptions. CN X receives visceral sensory information from the thorax and abdomen, and CN XI is responsible for innervating the sternocleidomastoid, or musculus sternocleidomastoideus and trapezius muscle, or the musculus trapezius, neither of which are exclusively in the head. Spinal nerves take their origins from the spinal cord. They control the functions of the rest of the body. In humans, there ar ...

A calyx is a part in the kidney. Calyces surround the appex of the malpighian pyramids. Urine formed in the kidney passes through a papilla at the apex into a minor calyx then into major calyx before passing through the pelvis into the ureter. Peristalsis of the smooth muscle originating in pace-maker cells originating in the walls of the calyses propels urine through the pelvis and ureters to the bladder.

The urogenital diaphragm is an archaic term describing a layer of the pelvis separating deep perineal sac from the upper pelvis. Unfortunately, the term is still in common use despite the fact that such a discrete border of the sac probably does not exist. Nevertheless, the urogenital diaphram usually includes: sphincter urethrae (external urethral) muscle deep transverse perineal muscle superficial t ...

Anal spurs are a pair of tiny claws found on each side of the vent of pythons, boas, and other primitive snakes. These claws are connected to the vestiges of the rear leg bones and pelvis. The external spurs are larger in males than females, and are used by males to stimulate the female during copulation.

In human anatomy, the vermiform appendix (or appendix, pl. appendixes) is a blind ended tube connected to the cecum. It develops embryologically from the cecum. In adults, the appendix averages 10 cm in length but can range from 2-20 cm. The diameter of the appendix is usually less than 7-8 mm. While the base of the appendix is at a fairly constant location, the location of the tip of the appendix can vary from being retrocaecal to being in the pelvis to being extraperitoneal. In most people, the appendix is located at the lower right quadrant of the abdomen. In people with situs inve ...

The abdomen is a part of the body. In humans, and in many other vertebrates, it is the region between the thorax and the pelvis. In fully developed insects the abdomen is the third (or posterior) segment, after the head and thorax. Abdomen - Vertebrates. The abdomen contains several organs: part of the digestive system (stomach, liver, and intestines), the entire urinary system (kidneys, bladder). the internal reproductive organs (ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus in women, ...

In humans the thigh is the area between the pelvis and buttocks and the knee. Anatomically, it is part of the lower limb. The single bone in the thigh is called the femur. This bone is very thick and strong (due to the high proportion of cortical bone), and forms a ball and socket joint at the hip, and a condylar joint at the knee. Thigh - Fascial compartments. In cross-section, the thigh is divided up into three fascial compartments. These compartments use the femur as an axis, and are separated by ...

The crunch is the most common strength training exercise for the abdominal muscles. It is performed while lying face up on the floor with knees bent, by curling the shoulders up towards the pelvis. The hands may be placed behind the head, but care should be taken not to pull on the neck. Alternatively, the hands may be placed on the shoulders, with the forearms crossed over the chest. Unlike the sit-up, the lower back should not leave the floor. This eliminates any involvement by the hip flexors, and makes the crunch an effecti ...

A vacuum mattress (vacmat) is a medical device used for the immobilisation of patients, especially in case of a vertebra, pelvis or limb trauma (especially for femur trauma). It is also used for manual transportation of patients for short distances (it replaces the stretcher). It was invented by Loed and Haederlé, who called it "shell" mattress (matelas coquille in French). It consists in a sealed polymer bag (bigger than an adult human body) that encloses small polystyrene balls, with a valve, strap ...

How endometriosis causes pain is the topic of much research. Because many women with endometriosis feel pain during or related to their periods, and may spill further menstrual flow into the pelvis with each menstruation, some researchers are trying to reduce menstrual events in patients with endometriosis. Endometriosic tissue reacts to hormonal stimulation and may "bleed" at time of menstruation. It accumulates locally, causes swelling, and triggers inflammatory responses with activation of cytokines. It is thought ...

Prolapse - Pelvic prolapse. Prolapse can involve several structures within the pelvis: Symptoms include pain, incontinence of urine and/or feces, discomfort in specific positions (standing, bicycling). Diagnosis is by history and physical examination. When generalised weakness of the pelvic floor is suspected, additional tests might be considered. When incontinence is a feature, urodynamics may give some information on the interplay between prolapse and the incontinence. Specific types include: Vaginal pr ...

The following applies to typing or computer use. RSI is best prevented in its early stages before it becomes difficult to control. Pay attention to pain and fatigue. Stop using the computer BEFORE you begin to feel symptoms. Pay attention to posture. The head and back should form a straight line from the ears to the pelvis. The shoulders and head should not be hunched forward. Take regular breaks. One option is to install reminder software. Avoid resting the wrists on anything when typing. Hold them st ...

Patients with an ectopic pregnancy typically have: Lower back, abdominal, or pelvic pain. There may be cramping or even tenderness on one side of the pelvis. The pain is of recent onset, and often getting worse. Vaginal bleeding may be present.

One way to group the bones of the human skeleton is to divide them into two groups, namely the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton consists of bones in the midline and includes all the bones of the head and neck, the vertebrae, ribs and sternum. The appendicular skeleton consists of the clavicles, scapulae, bones of the upper limb, bones of the pelvis and bones of the lower limb. The bones of the human skeleton are structurally and in many taxonomies organized as those of the: skullSee also:

Hip anatomy - Articulation. The hip joint is a multiaxial ball and socket synovial joint formed by the articulation of the rounded head of the femur and the cuplike acetabulum of the pelvis. It forms the primary connection between the bones of the lower limb and the axial skeleton of the trunk and pelvis. Both joint surfaces are covered with a strong but lubricated layer called articular hyaline cartilage. The cuplike acetabulum forms at the union of three pelvic bones and the joint may not be fully ossifi ...
