dc.description.abstractBackground This study aims to reveal the characteristics of pelvic morphology in adult women within the Turkish population and to investigate age-related changes in pelvic region morphometry. Materials and Methods The study was conducted using CT images of 324 healthy women aged 18-60. Results A negative correlation with age was identified in all anatomical conjugate, obstetric conjugate, and diagonal conjugate values (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the differences between these pelvic diameters and age groups were statistically significant (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p = 0.001). We did not detect any lateralization in the pelvis, except for the way the bones that make up the pubic symphysis meet each other. A significant difference was found for the subpubic angle among the age groups (p < 0.001). The distance between the anterior superior iliac spines (IADs) was positively correlated with age, and the differences in IADs values between age groups were also significant (p < 0.001). We found a significant difference in the pelvic inclination at the level of the inlet and outlet values among age groups (p < 0.001, p = 0.001). Conclusion It was observed that approximately 25% of our study cohort exhibited a spinous process extending downward from the superior margin of the greater sciatic notch, a feature that has not been previously documented in the literature. This spine may create pressure on the neurovascular structures passing through this region. We believe this structure deserves consideration in the causes of painful hip conditions.
