To evaluate the antenatal umbilical coiling index in second trimester of gestation by sonography and postnatal umbilical coiling index in relation to pregnancy outcome [PDF]
Background: The umbilical cord extends from the fetal umbilicus to the fetal surface of the placenta. Its diameter is 0.8 to 2.0 cm, with an average length of 55 cm and a range of 30 to 100cm. The umbilical cord is the life line of fetus as it supplies water, nutrients and oxygen.
