Abstract

Between September 1990 and August 1991, 2291 men aged 65 years were invited for ultrasonographic screening of the aorta in the Gloucestershire aneurysm screening programme; 1748 (76.3 per cent) attended. An aortic diameter less than or equal to 2.5 cm was found in 1547 (88.5 per cent); 174 (10.0 per cent) had diameters in the range 2.6-4.0 cm, and 26 (1.5 per cent) had diameters greater than 4.0 cm. The mean(s.d.) aortic diameter was 2.1(0.55) cm and 97.5 per cent of patients had a diameter less than or equal to 3.3 cm. Any man over the age of 65 years with an aortic diameter greater than 3.3 cm has an aortic aneurysm.

摘要

在1990年9月至1991年8月期间，格洛斯特郡动脉瘤筛查项目邀请了2291名65岁男性进行主动脉超声检查；1748人（76.3%）参加了检查。1547人（88.5%）的主动脉直径小于或等于2.5厘米；174人（10.0%）的直径在2.6 - 4.0厘米之间，26人（1.5%）的直径大于4.0厘米。主动脉平均（标准差）直径为2.1（0.55）厘米，97.5%的患者直径小于或等于3.3厘米。任何65岁以上主动脉直径大于3.3厘米的男性都患有主动脉瘤。
