2025/10/21 10 A. Gynecoid Pelvic Inlet: The gynecoid pelvis provides a rounded ,slightly oviod , or elliptical inlet with a well-rounded forepelvis. Posterior segment: This type of pelvis has a well-rounded, spacious posterior segment, an adequate sacrosciatic notch, a hollow sacrum with a somewhat backward sacral inclination,and a Normantype arch of the pubic rami. Side walls: This type of pelvis has straight side walls and wide interspinous and intertuberous diameters.the bones are primarily of medium weight and structure
