1 Original Article DETERMINATION OF SEX OF FEMUR BY COMBINATION OF PARAMETERS Md. Laeeque, Vivek Nirmale, C.V.Diwan ABSTRACT In most of the Medico legal cases for establishing the identity of the diseased the material brought are either decomposed or disintegrated body parts, the only material relied then can be only bones. Determination of sex by 100 % accuracy is needed to confirm identity. A number of studies using Demarcating point methods are available, but most of the times their efficiency in sorting the sex is very less. If more than one parameter is used for a bone at least one of the parameters may work and can help in determination of sex. Present study is an attempt to use combination of parameters for determination of sex by using demarcating point method. 203 Human adult femora of known sex (133 males & 66 females) available in Bone Bank of Department of Anatomy Government Medical College Aurangabad were used for the present study. s of femur like Vertical diameter of head, Transverse diameter of head, Biepicondylar width and Mid shaft circumference were measured tabulated and analyzed statistically. Mean, SD, P value Demarkating point of all parameters were evaluated, Demarkating points were cross validated singly and in combination. It was observed that the above parameters were statistically significant and the percentage of femora sorted by combination of parameters was far more than when the parameters were individually used. Thus combination of parameters can be used to get better efficiency in sorting of sex from bones. Key Words- Sex Determination, Demarcating points, Medico legal cases, Femur, Establishing identity. INTRODUCTION Sex determination of the unknown skeletal material is one of the most vital questions required to be answered with 100% accuracy in medico legal cases as a part of establishing identity of the diseased from skeletal remains. Numbers of studies have been done which use morphological and morphometric parameters having variable efficiency. Kete 1 working on femora from different regions of India, found that the values showed a regional variation & also a downward gradient from North to South. He recommended that in giving a medicolegal opinion, the average of that particular region should be considered for comparison. The knowledge of various dimensions of the femoral head in both sexes will not only help the anatomists and forensic experts in sexing the femora but will also be of immense importance in prosthesis of femoral head which may be used by the orthopedic 2 surgeons in femoral head replacement surgery. Present study is an attempt to evaluate and establish femoral parameters (viz vertical and transverse diameter of femoral head, biepicondylar width and mid shaft circumference) in the Indian race particularly the population of Maharashtra. MATERIALS AND METHODS 203 Human adult femora of known sex available in the Bone Bank of Department of Anatomy Government Medical College Aurangabad were used for the present study. 137 were of males and 66 of females all the bones used were free from deformity or damage, dry and properly preserved. All the bones were well documented for sex; race & all belonged to the residents of population of Maharashtra, India. They were cleaned well without soft tissue or cartilage & were thoroughly dried. All the bones had completed femoral growth as evidenced by the complete fusion of the proximal & distal femoral epiphysis.

2 MATERIALS Osteometer Scale. Sliding Vernier caliper. Non elastic thread. Marker pencils. PARAMETERS 1. Vertical Diameter of Head: Vertical diameter of head of femur was measured by using vernier caliper and measuring the maximum diameter of head in the vertical plane, as shown in the photograph no Transverse Diameter of Head: Transverse diameter of head of femur was similarly measured by vernier caliper as the maximum diameter in the transverse plane, as shown in the photograph no Biepicondylar Width: Maximum transverse width of the lower end of femur in anatomical position was measured using osteometer as shown in the photograph no Mid Shaft Circumference: The mid shaft of femur was first marked by measuring the length of femur by placing in anatomical position in osteometer from the head to the lower end and then marking the midpoint of the length. At this marked point the circumference of the shaft was measured using a flexible measuring tailors tape by starting from one fixed point running along the circumference up to the starting point, as shown in the photograph no.3. All the parameters were measured in mms and tabulated, statistically analyzed using T test. The Mean, Standard deviation, were obtained using the routine statistical methods and Excel programme of the computer. Demarcating points were obtained by using formula mean 3SD for males and females i. e Mean 3 SD of male is demarcating point for female and Mean + 3 SD of female is demarcating point for male. Cross validation of the data using the demarcating points for all the parameters was done singly and in combination. Sr no 1 Md.

The results are comparable with a number of works on Discriminant functions which are complicated and much mathematically oriented. Sr. No Name of the Worker Success rate 1 DiBennardo R.

Sex Determination of Chinese Femur by Discriminant Function: J Forensic Sci. Sep 1989 ; 34(5): PHOTOGRAPH 4: MEASURING THE BIEPICONDYLAR WIDTH OF FEMUR From the above table it can be seen that when individual parameter singly used by demarcating point method, the efficiency is only 23-33%. Whereas, the efficiency of individual parameter in present study are, 1. Vertical diameter of Head--50%. 2. Transverse diameter of Head ---45%. 3. Biepicondylar width---46%. 4. Mid shaft circumference---57%. And the efficiency of combination of all parameters is 80% which is far better than the individual parameters used either by previous workers or as in the present study. CONCLUSION Success rate of sorting of femora by combined use of more than one parameters has got a good appreciable efficiency. Differential functions which are population specific and tedious formulae can be avoided if combined use of DP is judiciously used in sorting of bones (male/female in medicolegal cases).
