Abstract :
INTRODUCTION: Kidney length is a very important indicator of kidney function. Kidney size is affected by an array of conditions. Sonography is the simplest way to assess it. Most of the data we have on adult renal nomograms are of Western population and the results are not quite applicable to our Indian population which leads to mismanagement of patients and thus demands the need of a study to establish normal values of renal size in Indian adult population. MATERIALS & METHODS: Sonographic assessment of normal renal dimensions of 1000 patients of age >18 years with no renal disease and analysis of the data was performed and its dependence on age, gender & laterality was seen. RESULTS: Mean renal length was 92.94 ± 9.69 mm (Range–75mm–125mm). Mean length of right kidney was 91.40 ± 9.56 mm whereas mean length for left kidney was 94.48± 9.57mm.
