there is a wide variation in the results of previous studies concerning
sonographic assessment of the uterine and ovarian volumes in
children and adolescent No consensus exists about the normal measures
of uterine or ovarian volumes. Therefore, The aim of this study was
to provide a normal reference of sonographic uterine and ovarian volumes
in healthy Egyptian girls aged 1-15 years in different age groups.

number was 43 girls. Their weights and heights were recorded. The
girls were Subjected to pelvic sonographic examination to measure the
uterine and ovarian parametersaength, width, anteroposterior diameter
