Comparison of humerus length with femur length in fetuses with Down syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
A recent report by FitzSimmons et al. demonstrated a greater frequency of upper- versus lower-extremity shortening in autopsies of second-trimester fetuses with trisomy 21. We undertook this study to determine whether this upper-limb shortening could be detected by prenatal ultrasonography in the second trimester and therefore identify fetuses at risk ...

ASSESSMENT OF GESTATIONAL AGE BY ULTRASONIC MEASUREMENT OF THE FEMUR LENGTH

Acta Obstetricia Et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1985
Abstract. The effectiveness of ultrasonic femur length measurement from 12 to 40 week's gestation, as a means of assessing fetal age, was tested and compared with that of bi‐parietal cephalometry. The femur length and biparietal diameter (BPD) were obtained from 471 measurements, from pregnant women with confirmed datings, using real‐time scanning ...

Fetal age assessment based on femur length at 10-25 weeks of gestation, and reference ranges for femur length to head circumference ratios

Acta Obstetricia Et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2005
Background.  The aim of the present study is to establish new reference charts for gestational age assessment based on fetal femur length (FL), and new reference ranges for FL to head ratios at gestational weeks 10–25, and to determine the effect of maternal and fetal factors on these charts.Methods.

Femur and humerus length in trisomy 21 fetuses at 11-14 weeks of gestation

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2004
Objective To determine the value of measuring fetal femur and humerus length at 11-14 weeks of gestation in screening for chromosomal defects. Methods Femur and humerus lengths were measured using transabdominal ultrasound in 1018 fetuses immediately ...

Leg-length discrepancy and associated risk factors after paediatric femur shaft fracture: A multicentre study

open access: yesJournal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2021
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate leg-length discrepancy (LLD) and associated risk factors after paediatric femur shaft fractures. Methods: A total of 72 consecutive patients under 13 years old (mean age 6.7 years; 48 boys, 24 girls) with ...

Evaluation of first trimester ultrasound fetal biometry ratios femur length/biparietal diameter, femur length/abdominal circumference and femur length/foot for the screening of skeletal dysplasia

Prenatal Diagnosis, 2023
AbstractObjectiveSkeletal dysplasia is usually apparent in the second trimester. First trimester femur‐length/biparietal diameter (FL/BPD), FL/abdominal circumference (AC) and FL/foot for the screening of skeletal dysplasia were evalauted.MethodCase‐control study: pregnancies with molecular confirmation of skeletal dysplasia undergoing nuchal ...
