“…The majority of patients studied were from Khartoum state (81%), Central Sudan (7%), and Western Sudan (7%), and Eastern Sudan (5%). The subjects' characteristic data were comparable to the mean values reported in the literature (Table 1) The means of splenic dimensions were fairly similar to those recorded by Turkish and Nigerian populations [19,20] and less than the data from Jordan [18] implicating that ethnicity could be attributed in part to the wide ranges of normative data registered by different populations this recent study performed on Jordan adults. To estimate normal linear dimensions and volume of the spleen in Jordanians using ultrasonography, and to correlate splenic volume with age and body parameters: height, weight, body surface area (BSA), and body mass index (BMI).…”

“…[3] Study conducted among Turkish adults indicated splenic volume for male (220.7 cm3) and for female study subjects (136.05 cm3). [19] In the present study, we found that the mean spleen volume was 92.8cm3. In male, the mean splenic volume was 107.7cm3 and in female the mean splenic volume was 78.03cm3.…”

“…The sonography assessment of spleen dimensions provides essential inputs for clinicians in daily clinical practice for proper diagnosis of splenomegaly (32,44,(53)(54)(55). The result of this study gives reference values which helps radiologist for appropriate diagnosis of diseases associated to splenomegaly and splenic atrophy, for the surgeons to appropriately design surgical cases associated to spleen, for hematologist and immunologist for proper diagnosis of various gastrointestinal and hematological diseases and forensic studies (56)(57)(58)(59).…”

Introduction: The spleen is a vital lymphoid soft organ that demands constant attention from the clinical point of view. It is multi-dimensional organs that enlarge in all dimensions in disease conditions. The detection of the spleen by palpation on physical examination is not an approval of an enlarged spleen because an unenlarged spleen may palpable. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the Morphometry of spleen dimensions and its correlates among individuals living in Arba Minch Town by sonographic examinations.Methods and Materials: Community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Arba Minch town from February 1 to March 30, 2020. A multi-stage systematic and simple random sampling technique was applied to select study participants. Data was entered into Epi-Data version 3.1software and exported to SPSS version 20 software for analysis.Result: A total of 708 individuals, 390 (55.1%) males and 318 (44.9 %) females were included in the current study. The mean splenic length, width, thickness and volume were 10.24 cm, 4.79 cm, 3.93 cm, and 109.34 cm³, respectively. The mean spleen length, width, thickness and volumes among males were 10.64 cm, 4.92 cm, 4.05 cm and 119.81 cm³ and among females were 9.75 cm, 4.63 cm, 3.78 cm and 96.50 cm³ respectively. Significant negative correlations were found between age and spleen dimensions. Significant positive correlations were observed between spleen dimensions and height, weight, Body Mass Index, and Body Surface area. But, the correlation between width and body mass index was non-significant (p-value > 0.05).Conclusion and Recommendations: The spleen dimensions were higher in males than females and have a significant positive correlation with height, weight, Body Mass Index and Body Surface Area except for the width. Further studies in different parts of the country have to be done to have normative data on the dimension of Spleen in Ethiopia.
