The '''inferior pubic ramus''' is thin and flattened. It passes lateralward and downward from the medial end of the [[superior ramus]]; it becomes narrower as it descends and joins with the [[inferior ramus of the ischium]] below the [[obturator foramen]]. |
|||
{{R from merge}} |
|||
Its ''anterior surface'' is rough, for the origin of muscles—the [[Gracilis]] along its medial border, a portion of the [[Obturator externus]] where it enters into the formation of the [[obturator foramen]], and between these two, the [[Adductores brevis]] and magnus, the former being the more medial. |
|||

|||
The ''posterior surface'' is smooth, and gives origin to the [[Obturator internus]], and, close to the medial margin, to the [[Constrictor urethrae]]. |
|||
The ''medial border'' is thick, rough, and [[everted]], especially in [[females]]. It presents two ridges, separated by an intervening space. |
|||
The ridges extend downward, and are continuous with similar ridges on the [[inferior ramus of the ischium]]; |
|||
* to the external is attached the [[fascia of Colles]]. |
|||
* to the internal the inferior fascia of the [[urogenital diaphragm]]. |
|||
The ''lateral border'' is thin and sharp, forms part of the circumference of the [[obturator foramen]], and gives attachment to the [[obturator membrane]]. |
