Journal Title: IP Indian Journal of Anatomy and Surgery of Head, Neck and Brain - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction The gender determination from the skeletal remains is of very much interest in the field of medical science Ashley GT 1956b formulated the 149 rule according to which a male sternum exceeded 149mm in length whereas the female sternum was less than 149mm on the basis of previous researcher I have been planned to verify the external data and establish them in reference to population in and around Lucknow With the help of this study we were distinguishes the male and female sternum bone in north zone of India as well as Uttar PradeshMaterials and Methods The above mentioned measurements have been further use to calculate various sternal dimensions and indices according to the technique described by Ashley Each linear measurement has been taken thrice on the anatomical position of the sternum using Mitutoyodigital vernier calipers to the nearest millimeter with precision of 001 mmDiscussion This study was fully supported the previous researchers who has done the work in morphometry of sternum bone in cadaver and skeletal of human because they told that the sterna has distinguish in different zone of India as well as it is shorter than European countryConclusion The comparison of mean length of manubrium mesosternum and sternum ranged from 40397131 mm 834912997 mm and 1502117039 mm respectively in adult male 1660yrs where as in adult female ranged from 23796035 mm 683312242 mm and 1163614892 mm respectivelyKeywords Sternum bone Gender determination Length of manubrium Length of mesostenum
