Çocuklarda Bilgisayarlı Tomografi Anjiyografisinde Abdominal Aortun Ana Dallarının Orijinleri Arasındaki Normal Mesafe Ölçümleri

Amaç: Çok dedektörlü bilgisayarlı tomografi (ÇDBT) anjiyografi ile pediatrik hastalarda abdominal aort ana dallarının orijinleri ile diyafragmatik aort ve iliak bifurkasyon arasındaki normal mesafelerinin ölçülmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Yaşları 0-18 yaş arasında değişen 245 çocuktan (ortalama yaş±standart sapma, 8,48±5,14 yıl) elde edilen ÇDBT anjiyografi tetkikleri retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Çölyak trunkus (ÇT), superior mezenterik arter (SMA), sağ renal arter (RRA), sol renal arter (LRA) ve inferior mezenterik arter (İMA) orijinleri arasındaki mesafeler ölçüldü. Diyafragmatik aort, iliak bifurkasyon ve ana dalların orijinleri (ÇT, SMA, RRA, LRA, İMA) arasındaki mesafe ölçümleri de yapıldı. Bulgular: Abdominal aort ile dalları arasındaki mesafelerin yaş grupları arasında değiştiği tespit edildi. Yaş ilerledikçe tüm mesafe ölçümlerinin anlamlı olarak arttığı gözlemlendi (p

Normal Distance Measurements Between the Origins of the Major Branches of the Abdominal Aorta on Computed Tomography Angiography in Children

Aim: The aim of the present study was to determine the normal distances between the origins of the major branches of the abdominal aorta, and their distances to the aorta at the diaphragmatic region and iliac bifurcation on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography in pediatric patients. Materials and Methods: The MDCT angiography scans obtained from 245 children aged between 0 and 18 years (mean age±standard deviation, 8.48±5.14 years) were retrospectively re-evaluated. The distances between the origins of the celiac trunk (CTR), superior mesenteric artery (SMA), right renal artery (RRA), left renal artery (LRA), and inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) were measured. The distance measurements between the aorta at the diaphragmatic region, iliac bifurcation, and the origins of the major branches (CTR, SMA, RRA, LRA, IMA) were performed as well. Results: The distances between the abdominal aorta and its branches were reported to vary in the age groups. All the distance measurements increased significantly with increasing age (p
