Their circumpubertal ages ranged from 11 to 16 years with mean age 13.36 years. Middle phalanx of the middle finger (MP3) was digitally radiographed for each subject. Each film was interpreted to define its MP3 developmental stage and the data were collected and statistically analyzed. Based on the findings of this study, the following conclusions can be drawn: a. The mean skeletal maturity age (MP3-G stage) that represents the peak of height velocity (PHV) in Egyptian adolescent males of Giza was found to be 13.36 y ± 1.07 years which was approximately 7.27 months after pre-peak stage
