[Relative growth of the human cerebellum: a quantitative estimate]. / Croissance relative du cervelet humain: une estimation quantitative.

The relative growth of the cerebellum was studied in 300 human foetuses by using of the equation Y = bxk. The cerebellum weight was correlated to the cephalic perimeter and to the fetal weight. The relative growth of the cerebellum presented positive allometry (k = 3.3; k = 1.3 respectively). Masculine foetus presented greater index than feminine foetus.

[Prenatal growth of the human skull: quantitative study]. / Croissance prénatale du crâne humain: étude quantitative.

The relative growth of the skull was studied in 300 human foetuses by using of the allometric equation Y = aXb. The skull growth was correlated to the crown-rump length and to the fetal weight. The relative growth of the skull presented positive allometry. Masculine foetus presented greater index than feminine foetus.
