Abstract

Objective: To analyze the importance of pelvimetry in pregnant women and dystocic risk factor. Method: Descriptive documentary. Conclusion: Pelvimetry is a diagnostic tool of inestimable value in the evaluation of the risk of dystocia in pregnant women, providing crucial data which, integrated in a thorough clinical evaluation, allow highly informed decisions to be made regarding the safest and most appropriate mode of delivery. Although advanced imaging techniques, such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, have increased the accuracy and reliability of pelvic measurements, their clinical application must be framed within a multidimensional approach that takes into account other critical factors, such as fetal macrosomia and the evolutionary particularities of human pelvic morphology.
