Abstract

Background: The determination of sex of an individual is primary criterion of identification, but this is very difficult problem and becomes  even  more challenging when only a single bone like clavicle is available. The traditional methods of sexing bone are subjective and not  of  much  help  in  medico-legal cases where 100% accuracy is needed. Hence metrical analysis of clavicles for determination of sex by various morphometric measurements is done.
Methodology: The total 155 dried clavicles of adult human bodies of known sexes were obtained from the dept. of Anatomy, at Indira Gandhi Institute of medical sciences, Patna. And various medical colleges  in  Bihar. The present study was conducted at dept. of Anatomy, by measuring the various morphological data of adult human clavicles like their length, mid-shaft circumference, weight, volume, incidence of rhomboid fossa and its length and breadth, and medial and lateral angles.
Conclusion: The  clavicular  parameters  like  length,  mid-shaft  circumference, robustness index, weight,  volume,  rhomboid  fossa  length  and  breadths  have been found to be statistically highly  significant  with  high  probability  of prediction of correct sex. While, clavicular angles were less significant. When a clavicle exhibits a rhomboid fossa, it was likely from a male.
