Abstract

In this study, the combined adrenal weight is correlated to the total body weight in Indian Fetuses. In particular, this is useful to pathologists in diagnosis of conditions like congenial hypoplasia andcongenital hyperplasia. One hundred Indian human fetuses between 12–38 gestation weeks were examined for combined adrenal weight and total body weight. Their total adrenal weight and body weight were measured and recorded. Subsequently, correlation between the two factors was established and the mean standard deviation was calculated. Finally, it is noted that when the ratio of combined adrenal weight to total body weight <0.001, congenital hypoplasia is diagnosed.
