Figure 1. Axial view (1) midline, (a+b) reference lines, (*)angle Results During fetal development in week 18-24, the hippocampus underwent a mean rotational movement from 97,53° to 169,40° with a mean increase of 40,55° between week 18-21 and 31,32° between week 2124. The angle on the right side tended to be bigger than on the left side. In week 20 the side difference was statistically significant (p=0,039).
