Morphognostic Analysis of Fetal Ilium for Sex Determination
نویسنده
چکیده
Sexing of an individual by skeletal remains can be well established by using pelvis in adults especially on fused bones only. Forensic fetal Osteology is the field which needs to be explored for sex determination. The 34 pairs of Fetal pelvis bones (>22 weeks and <22 weeks of gestation) in different stages of decomposition were studied for morphognostic parameters i.e. Genove's composite arch and Schutkowski's Arch Criterion, Sciatic Notch Angle and Auricular Surface Elevation and compared with 26 pairs (10 Males+16 Females) of adult hip bones with already known sex. Criteria evaluated and their results were good enough for establishing sex in fetal specimens especially of >22 weeks with 100% accuracy. The findings in our study showed 100% accuracy in determination of sex by fetal ilium bone which can be used as a potential tool for sex determination.

SRY Abstract Introduction: Prenatal diagnosis is testing for detection of diseases or conditions in a fetus or embryo before it is born. Most of prenatal diagnostic (PD) techniques are invasive and done in late stages of pregnancy. Using fetal DNA in maternal blood for fetal sex determination in early pregnancy might help in management of X-linked genetic diseases. This study aimed to investiga...
