It is well known that, structurally, the people of Asia are shorter than Europeans. The size of different organs of the foetus may also vary accordingly. To assess this, 793 foetuses between 16 and 40 weeks' gestation were studied and 1175 kidneys were measured on ultrasonograms. Only normal pregnancies were included in the study. Our results show that, in the main, the mean length of foetal kidneys in the present study is either slightly higher or similar to that previously reported by many authors. In this study, the average kidney length at full term is 3.95 cm. An excellent correlation was seen between gestational age, biparietal diameter, femoral length and renal length measurement.
众所周知,在结构上,亚洲人的身材比欧洲人矮。胎儿不同器官的大小也可能相应地有所不同。为了对此进行评估,研究了793例妊娠16至40周的胎儿,并在超声检查中测量了1175个肾脏。该研究仅纳入了正常妊娠。我们的结果表明,总体而言,本研究中胎儿肾脏的平均长度略高于或与许多作者先前报道的相似。在本研究中,足月时肾脏的平均长度为3.95厘米。观察到胎龄、双顶径、股骨长度与肾脏长度测量之间存在极好的相关性。
