The sacroiliac joint is responsible for connecting the spine to the pelvis and transmitting forces between the lower extremities and the spine. The joint can become hyper or hypo mobile in response to an injury. This what is commonly called pelvic torsion.

The pelvic inlet (surface that defines the border between the abdominal and pelvic cavities) in males is "andriod" shaped, i.e. heart or wedge shaped.


What is the term for the removal of the entire contents of the pelvic cavity?

The term for the removal of the entire contents of the pelvic cavity is "pelvic exenteration." This surgical procedure is usually performed in cases of advanced pelvic tumors or recurrent cancer that involves pelvic organs such as the bladder, rectum, uterus, or cervix. It aims to achieve complete removal of the affected structures in the pelvis to prevent the spread of cancer.


What is the extension of the pelvis that encircles the apex of a pyramid?

The extension of the pelvis that encircles the apex of the pyramid is called the pelvic brim, also known as the pelvic inlet. It is the upper border of the pelvic cavity and is defined by the bony edges of the pelvic bones.


Are the abdominal and pelvic cavities separated by the diaphragm?

Yes, the abdominal and pelvic cavities are separated by the pelvic floor muscles, not the diaphragm. The diaphragm separates the abdominal cavity from the thoracic cavity, which contains the heart and lungs.

Can a non-abelian group have a torsion subgroup?

Yes, a non-abelian group can have a torsion subgroup. A torsion subgroup is defined as the set of elements in a group that have finite order. Many non-abelian groups, such as the symmetric group ( S_3 ), contain elements of finite order, thus forming a torsion subgroup. Therefore, the existence of a torsion subgroup is not restricted to abelian groups.
