Abstract :

 Aim:. Comparative study among Various indices for sex determination of a dry human sacrum Materials & Methods : This study was performed in Department of Anatomy of N.S.C.B. medical college Jabalpur M.P. during the period of august 2015 to January 2016. This study consists of 71 dry, undamaged human sacrum of known sex (44 male and 27 female) was used. Anatomical measurements were performed on these specimens by using vernier calipers with accuracy of 0.1 mm. To interpret the data was analyzed statistically. Results: Sacral index was found statistically significant (p = < 0.000 , t = 9.72 ) for sexing the sacrum in the present study. demarking point for sacral index for male was < 92.86 mm and for female was >120.61mm. Conclusion: among the various parameters the accuracy is less than sacral index because they are not statistically significant.
