Dr. Rajeev Mukhia, Mr. Phanindra Prasad Poudel
Abstract :
There are several anatomical parameters which are useful in the determination of gestational age. Estimation of gestational age of human foetuses is of great medico–legal importance. The present study aims to determine the gestational age of human foetuses using crown rump length and crown heel length and also to estimate the ratio between body weight and gestational age. After permission from the Institutional Ethical Committee the foetuses were collected from Manipal College of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital, Pokhara. The measurement, crown heel length and crown rump length was measured on foetuses and the weight of the foetuses was also caliated. The crown rump length, crown heel length and weight of foetuses increase with the increase in gestational age. The knowledge of measurement of crown rump length and crown heel length on human foetuses is helpful in anatomy, forensic medicine, foeto–pathology and paediatrics.
