SuleymanDemirel University TIP FACULTY JOURNAL: June 2005; 12(2) In the fetal period the growth rates between the upper and lower limbs of Mehmet Ali Malas, Shevkinaz Doğan, E. Hilal Evcil, Kadir Desdicioğlu, S. Murat Tağıl, Osman Sulak, Esra Hard Summary: The purpose of the study is to determine the growth rates between the upper and lower limbs of the human fetus throughout the fetal period. In this study, 161 human fetus (83 male, 78 female) were used without external anomalies and between the ages of 9-40 weeks of pregnancy. On the upper end, the shoulder width, the arm, the forehead and the length of the hand were measured. Intertrochanter distance in the lower limbs, the spine, leg and foot length were measured. Results: There was a significant correlation between all the parameters taken in the fetal period and gestational age (p<0.001). and I. and II. The growth rate of the front arm in the trimester was higher than the growth rate of the lower arm, the growth rate of the lower arm, the growth rate of the lower arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the lower arm, the growth rate of the lower arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm, the growth rate of the upper arm. All of this is increased. There was no difference between trimester and full-term groups (p<0.05). Result: These measurements which are useful in the determination of gestational age are thought to affect various medical branches such as anatomy, pathological anatomy (fetopathology), judicial medicine, medical imaging, obstetry and pediatrics Key words: upper end, lower end, fetal period, development Abstract The rate of growth between the upper and lower end in the fetal period. Purpose: The aim of this study was the determination of rates of growth between the upper and lower extremity of human fetuses during the fetal period. Materials and method: In this study, 160 human fetuses (80 males, 80 females) without external anomalies and aged between 9-40 post menstrual weeks were studied. In the upper extremity, the width of the shoulder, the length of arms, forearms and hands were measured. In the lower extremity, the width of the inter trochanterica, the length of thigh, cruris and foot were measured. Results: Significant correlation was found between all parameters taken within the fetal period and gestational age (p<0.001). The rate of forearm growth was higher than the rate of arm growth, the rate of thigh growth was higher than the rate of cruris growth and in addition the rate of upper extremity growth was higher than the rate of lower extremity growth in the first and second trimesters. In all of these increasing rates, there were no differences between third trimester and full-term groups (p<0.05). and conclusions. Our opinion is that the measurements can be useful to assess gestational age concerning several branches of medicine such as anatomy, pathological anatomy (fetopathology), forensic medicine, medical imaging, obstetrics and pediatrics. Key words: upper extremity, lower extremity, fetal period, development
