This cavity, and the bones which form it, are different in the two sexes. In women, the brim of the pelvis is wider, and inclines more to the oval form. In men this opening is more circular. CAVITY OF THE PELVIS. 171 The outlet or lower opening of the pelvis is also larger in women. This greater size of the pelvis and its openings, in women, is derived particularly from the following circumstances : The os sacrum is broader, and sometimes straighter than in men. The ossa ilia are flatter, and c...onsequently the ossa ischia are farther apart. The ligamentous cartilage at the symphysis pubis is broader, and shorter. The angle formed by the crura of the ossa pubis with each other, at the symphysis, is much larger. The pelvis, considered as a whole, is very irregular, though symmetrical in its shape. It has the form of a truncated cone, or a funnel with its base upwards, curved from behind forward with its concavity in front, and is bounded both above and below by bony walls of unequal elevation.
