What are the Implications for Gynecological Surgery?
The unique shape of a platypelloid pelvis can also affect gynecological surgeries. Procedures that involve the pelvic organs, such as a [hysterectomy](href) or [oophorectomy](href), may require special techniques or instruments to accommodate the wider pelvic brim and shallow depth. Surgeons need to be aware of these anatomical differences to optimize surgical outcomes.
