The nomogram of f etal foot length v ersus gestational age between 15-42 weeks was constructed f rom the fetuses of healthy singleton pregnancies. All patients had normal ongoing<br />pregnancies and known last menstrual periods.<br />RESULTS: A significant correlation was f ound between fetal f oot length and gestational age (r = 0.890, p < 0.0001). Our results suggested that f etal foot length was a reliable marker f or use in the assessment of gestational age.<br />CONCLUSION: This parameter is particularly usef ul when other measurements do not accurately predict gestational age, for example, dysplastic limb reduction and abnormal fetal head structure.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Gynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine}, author={Yüksel, Kutlugül and Günyeli, İlker and Doğanay, Melike and Uğur, Mustafa and Mollamahmutoğlu, Leyla}, year={2006}, month={Apr.}, pages={27–29} }
