In 60 cases the maxillary length was measured twice by the same operator to calculate the intraobserver variation in measurements.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median gestation was 12 (range, 11\u201314) weeks. The maxilla was successfully examined in all cases. The mean difference between paired measurements of maxillary length was \u22120.012 mm and the 95% limits of agreement were \u22120.42 (95% CI, \u22120.47 to \u22120.37) to 0.40 (95% CI, 0.35 to 0.44) mm. The fetal karyotype was normal in 839 pregnancies and abnormal in 131, including 88 cases of trisomy 21. In the chromosomally normal group the maxillary length increased significantly with CRL from a mean of 4.8 mm at a CRL of 45 mm to 8.3 mm at a CRL of 84 mm. In the trisomy 21 fetuses the maxillary length was significantly shorter than normal by 0.7 mm and in the trisomy 21 fetuses with absent nasal bone the maxilla was shorter than in those with present nasal bone by 0.5 mm. In fetuses with other chromosomal defects there were no significant differences from normal in the maxillary length.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>At 11\u201314 weeks of gestation, maxillary length in trisomy 21 fetuses is significantly shorter than in normal fetuses.
