Effect of the lateral tilt position on femoral vein cross-sectional area in anesthetized adults

Abstract: Background: A lateral tilt position can affect the size of the femoral vein (FV) due to increased venous blood volume in the dependent side of the body.Methods: Forty-two patients, aged 20-60 years, were enrolled in this study. The crosssectional area (CSA), anteroposterior, and transverse diameters of the FV were measured 1 cm below the left inguinal line using ultrasound.
