title: [Ultrasonic measurements of the uterus in adolescents].
abstract: Length of uterus, anterior-posterior and cross diameter in 105 healthy and 101 diabetic girls at the age from 9 to 20 years determined by ultrasound. Length of uterus and its calculated volume are correlated to age and Tanner classification, in order to conceive in a reproducable way the development of uterus in puberty. In both groups a clear push of growth occurs about the time of menarche. The diabetic girls showed a slight delay of uterus development, which is adjusted, however, at the end of puberty (Tanner IV and V).
