A Simple Method of Pelvimetry

Abstract
This method of pelvimetry is based on one described to me by Dr. Tennant of Birmingham in 1938. Four diameters of the female pelvis are obtained: 1. Transverse diameter of the pelvic inlet. 2. Obstetric conjugate (either the true conjugate, Caldwell-Molloy or “available conjugate”). 3. Mid pelvis (symphysis to middle of third sacral segment). 4. Outlet diameter (to terminal point of the last fixed sacral segment).
