Rationale 2: The false pelvis is the the portion above the pelvic brim, or linea terminalis, above the inlet of the true pelvis.
Rationale 3: The false pelvis is the portion above the pelvic brim.
Rationale 4: The relationship between the true pelvis (not the false one) and the fetal head is of paramount importance.
