Normal values of liver and spleen size by ultrasonography in Indian children.
Indian Pediatrics 2010 June
OBJECTIVES: To establish normative data for the ultrasonographic measurement of liver and spleen size in healthy Indian children.
SETTING: Tertiary-care pediatric teaching hospital.
DESIGN: Cross-sectional, hospital-based study.
PARTICIPANTS: 597 healthy children between the ages of 1 month to 12 years.
MEASUREMENTS: Ultrasonographic evaluation for the assessment of liver and spleen size. These were correlated with the age, sex, height/length and weight of the participants.
RESULTS: Normal liver and spleen length and range were obtained sonographically. The liver and spleen length significantly correlated highly with the height/length of the subjects (P=0.0001).
CONCLUSIONS: The study provides the normal values of liver and spleen size by ultrasonography in healthy Indian children.
