title: [Ultrasonographic evaluation of growth in twin pregnancies in the population of Wrocław. I].
abstract: Authors have ultrasonographically evaluated and analysed appropriate parameters determining fetal growth in bigeminal pregnancies in the population of Wrocław. The following parameters were taking in consideration: biparietal head dimension (BPD), transversal chest dimension (THD) and thigh bone length (FL). After the comparative analysis of the average BPD, THD, and FL values in fetuses from 28-40th single fetus and bigeminal pregnancies authors revealed, that BPD and TDH values were significantly smaller in twins that single fetuses. No correlation was found in FL values in both groups. In the aim to obtain more accurate evaluation of intrauterine growth in twins. Authors proposed an application of special ultrasonographic BPD and THD parameters net-works, different from those applicable for primiparous pregnancies.
