| drS786 Total Posts: 54 | Posted: Sun May 31, 2009 08:11 pm The pelvic brim extends from promontory of the sacrum, arcuate line of the ilium, pectineal line (pectin of pubis) and pubic crest. Some people divide the pelvis into a greater (or false) pelvis and lesser (or true) pelvis. They are separated by using the pelvic brim as the limiting line. The greater pelvis is located above the pelvic brim and the lesser pelvis below the brim. No muscle crosses the pelvic brim. If they did, they would be in the way during childbirth |
