Abstract

70(35 male and 35 females) children aged between 11 to 18 years were studied for ossification of elbow joint radiologically, 4(11.4%) were 11 years 5(14.2%) were 12 years, 7 (20%) were 13 years of age, 5(14.2%) were 14 years, 3(8.57%) were 15 years were 16 years, 3 (8.57%) were 17 years and 4 (11.4%) were 18 years old. The radiological study of elbow joint was Appearance of trochlea was observed only in female at 11 year. Fusion of trochlea was in males at 14 to 15 years of age and in 12 to 14 years in females. Appearance of lateral Epicondyle in male was 11 to 12 years but in females at 11 years only. Fusion of lat epicondyle in males was between 13 to 16 years and in females 13 to 14 years. Fusion of medial epicondyle in males was between 14 to 16 years but in females between 11 to 15 years. Fusion of head of Radius in males between 14 to 16 years of age but in females between 11 to 13 years only. Appearance of olecranon process in males between 11 to 13 years and in females between at 11 years only. Fusion of olecranon process in males was between 17 to 18 years of age in females between 15 to 16 years only. This study of elbow appearance and joint in which early appearance and ossification of females bones will be helpful to medico-legal expert, orthopedician, radiologist, anthropologist and anatomist. Moreover this study has ethnic and regional importance because morphometric values of mesodermal derivatives are uncertain

Abstract

35 male and 35 females adult, non pathological dried sacra were studied. The height and width was measured with vernier caliper. In comparison of height of sacrum, the mean value of male was 106.4(SD±0.30) and female 90.1(SD±0.16), ‘t’ test was 395, and P value was highly significant (P<0.01). In the comparative study of width of the sacrum mean value of males was 99.3 (SD±0.44) and female was 112 (SD±0.08) ‘t’ test was 122.65 and P value was highly significant (P<0.01). The sacral Index of male was 93.3 and female was 124.27. This significant value to differentiate the male and female genders will be quite useful to medico legal expert anthropologist and anatomist because these obtained value represent the regional or ethnic study of sacra. Moreover morphometric values of mesodermal derivatives are un-certain.
