PELVIMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE FEMALE POPULATION IN AZERBAIJAN

Abstract

In this study, pelvimetric signs of female pelvises in the population of Azerbaijan were examined on bone preparations. A total of 78 preparations of the female pelvis from the collection of the Osteological Museum of the Department of Human Anatomy and Medical Terminology of Azerbaijan Medical University were analyzed. Pelvimetric indicators in the groups were compared using analysis of variance. It was determined that among the studied female pelvises, the parameters of 36 objects corresponded to narrow configurations of the pelvis. Additionally, it was found that non-narrow forms of the pelvis are characterized by higher variability in terms of age, whereas the dimensions of narrow forms remain relatively stable throughout life. Moreover, within the narrow forms, it was observed that the parameters of transversely narrowed forms of female pelvises are more susceptible to changes compared to the dimensions of generally uniformly narrowed configurations.
