The study was done over a period of One year from July 2015 to June 2016 at the Govt. Rajaji hospital, Madurai as a case control comparison study. A group of 50 cases and controls were selected. After an informed consent from the patients, the distance between the anterior superior iliac spine and the distance between this line and pubic tubercle was marked and noted. These lengths were studied between the cases and controls. The p value was calculated and found to be significant. The study proved an increased ST length in the cases.
