Objective The accuracy of current formulae for the sonographic estimation of fetal weight (EFW) is compromised by significant intra‐ and interobserver variability of biometrical measurements, particularly circumferences. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of the linear measurement of mid‐thigh soft‐tissue thickness (STT) and to derive a novel formula for EFW. Methods This was a prospective study involving 388 singleton uncomplicated pregnancies. There were three consecutive phases: (1) to verify the relationship between STT and birth weight, (2) to derive a novel formula for EFW using femur length and STT only, and (3) to test the accuracy of the new equation. Only the 290 patients who delivered within 48 h of measurement were considered for the analysis. A comparison with other formulae was performed. Results STT was significantly correlated with both abdominal circumference and birth weight (r2 = 0.36 and 0.46, respectively; P < 0.001). Both intra‐ and interobserver variability were satisfactory (0.44 ± 0.27 and 0.57 ± 0.35 mm, respectively). The equation for EFW was developed using multiple stepwise regression analysis (EFW = − 1687.47 + (54.1 × femur length) + (76.68 × STT)) and tested prospectively on 69 patients. The new formula yielded results (r = 0.79) that were slightly better in accuracy than two other published equations, and had an absolute mean error of < 15% in 97% of cases. Conclusions Our findings confirm the potential of the linear measurement of mid‐thigh STT as a valuable parameter for the sonographic assessment of fetal growth and EFW. Our new equation is apparently at least as reliable as the most widely used formulae for EFW. Copyright © 2008 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
