New Data on a Computer and Tomographic Anatomy and Topography of the Retroperitoneal Area Great Vessels
The aim of the investigation is to obtain live morphometric findings in anatomy and topography of the great vessels of the retroperitoneal area with CT-scanning.
Materials and Methods. The axial computer tomograms have been studied. Under examination there were 140 patients at the age of 20—80 years without pathology of the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal area.
Results. The new live data on anatomy of the great vessels of the retroperitoneal area in men and women of different age groups have been received. The diameters of the abdominal aorta, an inferior vena cava and their branches have been studied. Individual, age and sexual differences of the vessels` live anatomy and topography are described. An analysis of the vessel interrelations between each other, with the surrounding organs and anatomical formations have been carried out.
Conclusion. A CT-investigation allows to distinctly describe live anatomy and topography and make a morphometry of the great vessels of the retroperitoneal area.
