This displacement of theinnominate bone is the result of an arrested development on the correspond-ing side of the pelvis, and is very likely associated with an atrophy of thesacral ala and an ankylosis of the sacro-iliac joint. The contraction of thepelvic canal is much more serious in this form, and there may be all thedifficulties in labor encountered in the true Naegele pelvis. Luxation of the Femora.—Dislocation of the thigh-bones, if congenitalor occurring early in childhood and not corrected, has some effect upon thesize and shape of the pelvis, but usually not enough seriously to obstructlabor. If one thigh is dislocated, the weight of the body may be thrown.
