They connect the spine to the pelvis and thus facilitate load transfer from the lumbar spine to the lower extremities. The majority of low back pain (LBP) is perceived to originate from the lumbar spine; however, another likely source of LBP that is mostly overlooked is the SIJ.

Medical College, Jamnagar, Gujarat, India ** Assistant Professor, *** Professor and Head, **** Resident, ***** Associate Professor, Department of Anatomy, PDU Medical College, Rajkot, Gujarat, India DOI: 10.5455/jrmds.20142415 ABSTRACT Background: Hip bone is most commonly used by forensic personnel as well as anatomist and anthropometric expert for sex determination. Many workers have calculated different types of indices to determine the sex of hip bone. Aim: In present study, determination of sex of hip bone was done by using morphological features. Materials & Method: Present study was conducted at Dept of Anatomy, PDU medical college, Rajkot on 108 (27 male & female of each side) adult human hip bones. Four morphological features of ilium, 1) Preauricular sulcus 2) Post auricular sulcus 3) Post auricular space and 4) iliac tuberosity were observed. Results: Iliac tuberosity was most efficient parameter to identify male hip bones (90.74%), while post-auricular sulcus was most efficient parameter to identify female hip bones (72.22%). Conclusion: Combination of morphological feature is more effective in sex determination than a single feature alone. Keywords: Morphological features, Sex determination, Ilium INTRODUCTION Present study was carried out at department of anatomy, PDU medical college, Rajkot, Gujarat. Total Correct sex identification of the human skeleton is 108 (27 male & female of each side) adult human hip important in bioarcheological and forensic practice.

    Original Article GCSMC J Med Sci Vol (II) No (II) July-December 2013 Study of Significance of Total Pelvic Height and Pelvic Width in Sex Determination of Human Innominate Bone in Gujarat Region Sudarshan Gupta*, Kiran Arora ** Abstract : Introduction : Sex determination of the unknown hip bone either of whole skeleton or any part of it, is always a field of research not only for anatomist but also for forensic expert, anthropologist and archeologist. Hip bone was considered as ideal bone for sex determination after skull.Material and Method : This study was carried out on 100 dried human innominate bones out of them 40 were female and 60 were male bones. Gross morphometric parameters like total pelvic height, pelvic width was measured and ratio of pelvic width and total pelvic height was calculated.Results : Mean value of total pelvic height was higher in male(193.85 mm) compared to female(179.45mm), mean value of pelvic width was also higher in male (137.31 mm ) than female ( 133.24mm). It was found that mean value of ratio between pelvic width and total pelvic height was higher in female (0.74) as compared to male (0.70). The same was found statistically highly significant (P value <0.0001).Conclusion and Recommendation : The finding of this study showed that there were statistically significant gender difference were present in gross morphometric parameters, hence these measurements of the hip bone can be used for sex determination of unknown skeletons and in the forensic science for medicolegal cases. Key Words : Total pelvic height, pelvic width, innominate bone Introduction : total pelvic height, pelvic width, acetabular diameter, pubic Innominate bone is also known as hip bone.
