Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate bowel wall thickness in children, adolescents, and young adults as measured by ultrasonography. Ultrasonographic evaluation of the small bowel and the colon was performed in 128 subjects (age range, 3 days to 40 years). Bowel wall thickness increased significantly (P < 0.0001) increased with age, reaching a maximum colon wall thickness of 2.0 mm at the age range of 20 to 29 years. In the ileum, maximum wall thickness reached 1.5 mm at the age range of 10 to 14 years. The findings emphasize the need for age-specific normal values for bowel wall thickness measured by ultrasonography.

摘要

本研究的目的是通过超声检查来调查儿童、青少年和青年成人的肠壁厚度。对128名受试者（年龄范围为3天至40岁）进行了小肠和结肠的超声评估。肠壁厚度随年龄显著增加（P < 0.0001），在20至29岁年龄范围内结肠壁厚度达到最大值2.0毫米。在回肠中，最大壁厚度在10至14岁年龄范围内达到1.5毫米。这些发现强调了超声测量肠壁厚度时需要有针对特定年龄的正常参考值。
