Pelvis & female genital system (half)
Product code: HP0802
-
Single Side Left or right side of a region / system / organ.
The pelvis houses and protects organs of the reproductive, urinary, and gastrointestinal systems, while simultaneously contributing to the structure of the trunk, transmitting forces between the trunk and lower limb, and providing attachment points for muscles acting on the lower limb and trunk. It represents a region of numerous functions and pathologies. This Silicone Plastinate focusses on the viscera and neurovasculature of the female hemipelvis, including the external genitalia, musculature of the gluteal region and proximal thigh, and key regions including the femoral triangle and inguinal canal.

Key features include
General
- Half pelvis with gluteal region and proximal thigh.
- Female viscera.
Muscles and regions - pelvis
- Transverse section of the vertebral column and abdominal wall at the level of the inferior lumbar vertebrae (approximately L3/L4).
- Median sagittal section through the pelvis, vertebral column, and inferior part of anterolateral abdominal wall.
- Part of the cauda equina cord with its meningeal coverings in the vertebral canal.
- Cross (transverse) sectional view of various epaxial muscles of the back.
- Muscles of the inferior part of the anterolateral abdominal wall, and their layered arrangement.
- Position and structure of the inguinal canal and inguinal rings.
- Aponeurosis of external abdominal oblique cut and reflected to reveal the ilioinguinal nerve and round ligament of the uterus in the inguinal canal.
- Muscles of the lower limb originating from the pelvis and vertebral column (e.g., iliopsoas).
- Position, borders and neurovascular content of the greater and lesser sciatic foramina.
- Levator ani (part).
- Ischioanal fossa and its neurovascular contents.
Muscles and regions - lower limb
- Gluteus maximus cut and reflected to reveal deeper muscles and neurovasculature of the gluteal region.
- Muscles of the proximal thigh, mainly in their anatomical position.
- Various muscles are partially lifted to reveal underlying structures and regions, and the layered arrangements of muscles.
- Proximal attachment and position of the iliotibial tract and its associated muscles.
- Boundaries (most) and neurovascular contents of the femoral triangle.
- Femoral canal, femoral sheath, and fascial plane location of the femoral nerve.
- Proximal part and contents of the adductor canal.
Organs

- Labia majora, labia minora and vaginal vestibule.
- Clitoris, including some of its erectile tissues and associated muscles.
- Parts of the ovarian artery and vein.
- Rectum (part) and its relationship with the vagina and cervix.
- Position and orientation of the anal canal and external anal sphincter.
Neurovasculature
- Course, relations, and branches of key vascular structures, including the common iliac, external iliac, internal iliac, gluteal, obturator, and femoral arteries.
- Various visceral branches of the internal iliac artery.
- Course, relations, and tributaries of key veins including the common iliac, external iliac, internal iliac, femoral, and great saphenous veins.
- Position and main branches of the inferior part of the lumbar plexus, including its relationship with psoas major.
- Course, relations, and branches of key nerves including the superior gluteal, inferior gluteal, obturator, femoral, sciatic, and pudendal nerves.
- Position of key cutaneous nerves including the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and posterior cutaneous nerve of thigh.
