Abstract (2. Language): 
In this study the head circumference (HC), height and weight of 408 adults were measured. An adult's HC was been shown to be affected by his/her height and weight. Our data suggest that absolute measurements of HC without regard to stature and weight are inadequate for demonstrating clinically significant abnormalities of head size. On average a male's head is 1.33 cm larger than that of a female. We produced centile charts for adult HCs to accurately detect relative abnormalities. The pediatric charts are also appropriate for use in adults of either sex. [Journal of Turgut Özal Medical Center 1997;4(3):261-264]

Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmada; 408 erişkinin baş çevreleri, boyları ve kiloları ölçüldü. Baş çevresinin, boy ve ağırlıktan etkilendiği bilinmektedir. Sonuçlarımız; ağırlık ve boyu dikkate almadan yapılan baş çevresi ölçümlerinin, klinik yönden önemli baş çevresi değişmelerini göstermekte yetersiz olduğunu göstermiştir. Ortalama olarak, erkek baş çevresi, kadın baş çevresinden 1.33 cm daha büyüktü. Çalışma sonunda, baş çevresi anormalliklerini doğru olarak gösteren sentil kartları geliştirdik. Ayrıca, çocuklarda kullanılan kartlar, her iki cins için erişkinde de kullanılabilir.[Turgut Özal Tıp Merkezi Dergisi 1997;4(3):261-264]
