Determination of gestational age is important in civil and criminal cases. Though a reasonable assessment of gestational age can be made by measuring physical parameters such as crown-heel length, weight , morphological features organogenesis, development and ossification centres, an alternative parameter is desirable in some instances. This study was planned to establish a correlation between foetal foot parameters and gestational age. 30 formalin fixed human foetuses were obtained from Museum of Department of Anatomy, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Aligarh. Foetuses were divided into five groups. (Group I :< 17wks), (Group II: 17-20wks), (Group III: 21-25wks), (Group IV: 26- 30wks), (Group V : >30wks). Foot parameters i.e. length and breadth of foot, lengths of great toe and 2nd , 3rd , 4th ,5th toes, were measured using Vernier Callipers. It is concluded that except the length of great toe rest of parameters are reliably correlated with gestational age and thus can be used for determination of the same. This may serve as an important parameter in the medicolegal cases in which only foot or part of it is available for estimation of gestational age.
