Clinical characteristics:Although the deformity of this t3-pemost frequently concerns the sym-physis pubis, still in some cases thesacrum as well as the lower part of thevertebral column is fissured at the separation of the pubic bonesthe heads of the femora, pressingupward, force the innominate bonesoutward and backward, resulting inthe approach of the posterior superior spines of the ilium behind the sacrum,which is pushed inward. Thus there is created a groove posterior to thesacrum, from which circumstance this variety of pelvis receives the name-of inverted pelvis. The space where the bones fail to meet is usuallyfilled with fibrous tissue. Exstrophy of the bladder usually accompanies this. Fig. S24.—Generally Equally EnlargedPelvis. Justo-major Pelvis.
