L8: Contracted Pelvis & Cephalopelvic Disproportion Flashcards
Read Dystocia
Def of Contracted Pelvis
Def of Cephalopelvic or fetopelvic disproportion
Disproportion () head & pelvis (in cephalic presentation) or () fetus & pelvis (in presentations other than cephalic)
Compare between CP & CPD
Factors affecting size & shape of pelvis
Classification of contracted pelvis
Etiology of Contracted Pelvis

Pelvic Causes of Contracted Pelvis
- Congenital
Naegele’s Pelvis
Absence of 1 ala of sacrum (obliquely CP or asymmetric pelvis).
Robert’s Pelvis
Absence of 2 alae of sacrum (transversely (PI)
High assimilation Pelvis
Sacrum is made of 6 fused segments.
Low assimilation Pelvis
Sacrum is made of 4 fused segments.
Split Pelvis
Absent pubic bone usually associated e ectopia vesica)

Dx of CP & CPD
- Pelvimetry
Pelvimetry of CP & CPD
- Indications
Done for all primigravidas in last weeks of pregnancy & multiparas e bad obstetric history.
Pelvimetry of CP & CPD
- Time of Clinical Pelvimetry
Done at 36 wk through vaginal examination by Rt hand e patient in lithotomy position eout anesthesia
Pelvimetry of CP & CPD
- Method of Clinical Pelvimetry
- Internal & External
Pelvimetry of CP & CPD
- Internal Clinical Pelvimetry
Pelvimetry of CP & CPD
- External Clinical Pelvimetry
Sacral promontory
Normally, not easily palpable.
Diagonal conjugate diameter
Normally =12.5 cm.
Sacrum
- For width, curve & any anomaly (normally it is broad & concave from above downwards & from side to side).
Side walls of pelvis
To determine whether they are straight, divergent or convergent.
Ischial spines
To determine whether they are prominent or not &
measure distance ( ) them (normally = 10 cm)
Sacrospinous ligament
Normally = 2 fingers breadth (3.5 cm)
Width of sacrosciatic notch
Normally accommodates 2 fingers.
Mobility of coccyx
Normally, it is mobile) & can recede backwards easily.
AP diameter of outlet
Measured by the same manner as diagonal conjugate but tip of middle finger touches tip of sacrum,
Capacity of subpubic angle
Normally, angle can accommodate 2 (fingers near apex eout any difficulty
External Pelvimetry
- Inlet pelvimetry
Measure diameters of false pelvis by Martin’s pelvimeter (has little importance).
External Pelvimetry
- Outlet Pelvimetry
Radiological Pelviemtry
Cephalometry
Time of CPD Tests
After 36 weeks if head isn’t engaged especially in primigravidas).
Idea of CPD Tests
- Fetal head is used as a pelvimeter (fetal head is the best pelvimeter for inlet).
Methods of CPD Tests
Methods of CPD Tests
- Pinard Maneuver (External Method)
Methods of CPD Tests
- Muller-Kerr’s Maneuver (External & Internal Method)

Disadvantages of CPD Tests
Results of CPD Tests
Results of CPD Tests
- No disproportion
Head can be made to enter pelvis
Results of CPD Tests
