Adrenal bez kalınlığının multi-dedektörlü bilgisayarlı tomografi ile değerlendirilmesi [Evaluation of the thickness of the adrenal glands with multi-detector computed tomography]
Öz
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate adrenal gland size, and whether there is a thickness difference between two sides of adrenal glands by multi- detector computed tomography, by which anatomic details can be evaluate better. Materials and methods: Totally, 100 patients, who do not have adrenal gland pathology and outer adrenal gland body, are analyzed retrospectively by computed tomography with 16 and 64 detectors in regards of bilateral adrenal gland thickness. Results: After measurements, it was found that the difference between both adrenal gland medial and lateral limb thickness was statistically significant (p< 0.001, p=0.035). But no significant difference was found between both adrenal gland bodies (p=0.611). Conclusions: It was observed that left adrenal gland was thicker than the right in regards of variety. Further studies are necessary to conduct comprehensive investigations in regards of standardization of adrenal gland thicknesses.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı anatomik detayın daha iyi
değerlendirildiği multi-dedektörlü bilgisayarlı tomografi ile
adrenal bez boyutlarını ve her iki taraftaki adrenal bezler
arasında kalınlık farkının olup olmadığını araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve yöntem: Adrenal bez patolojisi bulunmayan,
adrenal bez dışı kitlesi olmayan 100 hasta bilateral adrenal
bez kalınlıkları açısından 16 ve 64 dedektörlü bilgisayarlı
tomografi ile retrospektif olarak incelendi.
Bulgular: Ölçümler sonucunda her iki adrenal bez ortalama
medial ve lateral bacak kalınlıkları arasında istatistiksel
olarak anlamlı farklılık saptandı (p< 0.001, p=0.035).
Her iki adrenal bez gövdeleri arasında ise istatistiksel olarak
anlamlı farklılık saptanmadı (p=0.611).
Sonuç: Sol adrenal bez sağa nazaran varyatif olarak kalın
izlenmiş olup, adrenal bez kalınlıkları standardizasyonu
açısından daha geniş çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
