Estimation du sexe fœtal à partir de l’ilium by Pascal Adalian, Sandrine Boutin-Forzano, Marie-Dominique Piercecchi-Marti, Yann Ardagna, Michel Signoli, Ferenc Kosa, Georges Leonetti, Olivier Dutour

“…During this research, we tested the different methods proposed for fetal iliac bones and adapted some others used particularly in the case of adults.For this reason, we set up and validated a protocol of taking photographs, as well as a measurement technique developed for numeric pictures with the help of a software program, Adobe Photoshop 6‚.During this study, we selected certain parameters, principally the ones taken on the great sciatic notch, which showed a strong correlation with sex, and we established a logistic regression for estimating the probability of belonging to one sex or the other.The weak percentage of sexual differentiation obtained by this formula led us to take into account age: we organised our sample in different age groups and established a formula that permits correct sex determination in more than 85% of cases (in our sample) for fetuses that are less than 24 gestational weeks old.…”
