Plane of the Wide Part of the Pelvic Cavity

The plane of the wide part of the pelvic cavity is an important anatomical structure that plays a key role in the process of childbirth. This plane passes through the middle of the posterior surface of the pubic joint (symphysis), the middle of the acetabulum and the junction of the II-III sacral vertebrae. It is one of the classic planes used in obstetric practice.

The plane of the wide part of the pelvic cavity is of great importance for understanding the anatomy and physiology of labor. It determines the position of the baby in the uterus, as well as the position of the fetus during childbirth. In addition, this plane plays an important role in determining labor tactics and choosing delivery methods.

Understanding the plane of the wide portion of the pelvic cavity helps obstetricians and gynecologists make more informed decisions related to childbirth. They can use this plane to determine the optimal position of the baby in the uterus and choose the most appropriate method of delivery for a particular situation.

In addition, understanding the plane of the wide portion of the pelvic cavity can help doctors and health care providers better understand the anatomical features of labor and their relationship to physiological processes. This can be especially helpful for those who work with women who are having problems with childbirth or pregnancy.

Thus, the plane of the latissimus pelvis is an important element of obstetric practice and plays a key role in understanding the anatomy and physiology of labor and in making informed decisions related to labor and delivery.



Gynecology: Wide Part Planes

The plane of the wide part of the cavity (WPC) is a plane drawn through the center of the posterior surface of the symphysis, the middle of the acetabulum and the intersection of the II lumbar and sacral coccygeal sections. It is widely used in obstetric practice in the perinatal period in order to correctly determine the position of the fetal head in the mother’s pelvis and select the method of delivery.
