STUDY OF ACETABULULAR PARAMETERS OF HIP BONE IN NORTH INDIAN POPULATION
Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The acetabulum of the hip bone is an important parameter for determination of sex. Morphometry of hip bone is of interest to anatomist, forensic experts and anthropologist. The parameters are also of clinical importance for orthopaedic surgeons. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of the study is to find the Diameter of acetabulum, Depth of acetabulum, Diameter of acetabular Notch and Shape of the anterior ridge of the acetabulum in North Indian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS : 57 human ossified adult hip bones were included from the Anatomy and forensic Department in this study. After determination of sex, the measurements were taken with the help of digital vernier calipers and a metallic scale. RESULTS: In this study the measurements of diameter of acctabulum is larger in female in both sides than that of male and significant statistically. The Acetabular Depth in female is more in left side but slightly less in right side than male. The Acetabular Diameter and Acetabular Depth in left side is more than right side. The anterior acetabular ridge in this study is more (43.9%) of curved type. CONCLUSION: Morphometric study will help detection of disputed sex by Forensic Experts & Orthopedic Surgeons for planning the total hip replacement. The Acetabular Depth in female is more in left side but slightly less in right side than male. The measurements are more in left side than that of right side
