Determinação do tamanho do fígado de crianças normais, entre 0 e 7 anos, por ultrassonografia

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Determinar o tamanho do fígado de crianças normais, entre 0 e 7 anos de idade, por ultrassonografia, correlacionando os valores obtidos com: idade, sexo, estatura, peso corporal e índice de massa corpórea. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Foram examinadas 584 crianças saudáveis, subdivididas em 11 grupos etários, sendo medidos o diâmetro crânio-caudal do lobo esquerdo, na linha médio-esternal, e o diâmetro crânio-caudal da superfície posterior do lobo direito, na linha hemiclavicular. Na análise estatística fora… Show more

“…The maximal spleen size is measured as longitudinal coronal plan encompassing the splenic hilum [ 17 ] ( Figure 1 ). The liver size is measured as the craniocaudal diameter at the midsternal line [ 18 ] ( Figure 2 ). Liver edge is measured at the midsternal line and is presented as degree of angle [ 19 , 20 ] ( Figure 3 ).…”
