kidney development

what is the normal size of a five month fetal kidney?
Avatar_dr_m_tn
Hello,
The anteroposterior diameter of the renal pelvis should be < 5 mm at 15–19 weeks and < 6 mm at 20–29 weeks. At 20 weeks, the kidneys show a hyperechoic capsule and the cortical area is slightly more echogenic than the medulla.

Hope it helps. Take care and regards.
