The pubic angle is of the Robert pelvis sometimes exists. Diagnosis is based uponthe above condition. Prognosis: Caesarean section with its attendant dangersis nearly always indicated. Treatment: Perforation and extraction may beperformed within certain limits, a case in which the transverse diameter of thepelvic inlet measures inches ( cm.) and that of the outlet 2 inches (5cm.) is supposed to represent the extreme limit of its applicability. Caesareansection has been performed in the majority of the Fig. 821.—Double Oblique Pelvis of Robert.
