[Correlative relations of spondilometric features in human feti (author's transl)]

The authors have carried out an analyzis of correlative relations of spondilometric features on the material of 403 human feti (211 male, 192 female) in morphologic age--the 4th up to the 7th month of fetal life. They have found a highly positive correlation between the length of the particular vertebral column segments, especially in the early period of fetal life, due to a slight inter individual differentiation. Besides, they have shown a stabilization of proportions of the vertebral column length and the length of its segments taking place in the fetal life of man.
