The aim of this study was to distinguish differences in linear liver measurements between men and women. Statistically significant gender differences were found in the following liver diameters: anteroposterior diameter of the left lobe, thickness of the cau… Show more

“…differences. Our previous study has shown [6] that the anteroposterior diameter of left liver lobe in men is larger than in women, but at that study we didn't pay attention to anthropometric parameters. Therefore, it is expediently to identify the relationship between anthropometric parameters and linear diameters of the liver in both genders.…”

The anthropometric parameters and linear ultrasound diameters of left liver lobe were taken in 212 adult healthy volunteers (90 men and 122 women). In men anthropometric parameters correlate with linear diameters of the left liver lobe much more than in women. Anteroposterior diameter of the left liver lobe increasingly correlates with anthropometric parameters both in men and women.The most significant correlations were detected both in men and women between anteroposterior diameter of the left liver lobe and body weight, body mass index and waist circumference

The liver size is important to take into account when it is necessary to assess the course and severity of various diseases, including infectious, malignant and systemic diseases. The liver linear dimensions of the same patient depend on the method of examination (palpation, percussion, sonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging). The objective of this investigation was to compare the linear diameters of the liver according to ultrasound data of cadavers before autopsy and liver linear diameters after extraction of it from the abdominal cavity. Material and methods. All data were obtained in the pathology department of the Regional Clinical Hospital of the Kaliningrad Region. We examined 25 cadavers (12 females and 13 males). Before the autopsy we performed the ultrasound examination with measuring of the linear diameters of the functional left and right lobes with a convex transducer of a portable S6 ultrasound system (SonoScape, China). After the autopsy we did 3 sagitally oriented incisions for maximum linear measurements similar to previous ultrasound ones. Results and discussion. After extraction of the liver from the abdominal cavity the anteroposterior diameters of both lobes decreased on average by half after autopsy (p < 0.001), the craniocaudal diameters of the left and right lobes, on the contrary, increased on average 2 times and 1.25–1.35 times respectively (p < 0.001). The oblique craniocaudal maximum diameter of the right lobe increased (“stretches”) by an average of 1.11–1.15 times (p = 0.002). Conclusions. After extraction of the liver from the abdominal cavity all the linear diameters changed. The oblique craniocaudal maximum diameter of the right lobe is the most “stable”, due to which it possible to imagine the intravital diameter of the liver.

Introduction: Biometrics therefore corresponds to the measurement of the morphological elements of humans. One of the most common ultrasound requests by clinicians is the assessment of liver size. The aim of our study was to study liver biometry using ultrasound in healthy adult subjects. Material and Methods: This was a prospective, descriptive and analytical study, carried out at CHU Point-G over a period of 7 months. A liver ultrasound was performed on 100 individuals without lesions, by a doctor in his final year of specialization in radiology and medical imaging. For each subject, we determined the height and anteroposterior diameter of the right liver and the left liver. Results: The mean age was 39.05 ± 16.86 years. The body mass index (BMI) 18.5 -24.9 group was the most represented with 58%. The mean height of the right liver was 138.40 ± 14.85 mm. It was 136.81 ± 14.70 mm in men and 139.92 ± 14.99 mm in women (P = 0.306). That of the left liver was 95.55 ± 14.34 mm, in men, it was 91.79 ± 13.51 mm and 99.16 ± 14.31 mm in women (P = 0.019). We found a significant correlation between right liver height and BMI (P = 0.013). Conclusion: The mean values of liver biometry were established in our series. There was a significant correlation between right liver height and BMI. Liver ultrasound remains a reliable technique for liver biometry.
