127 abdominal aortas of children and adolescents aged 0-20 years were examined histomorphologically. The quantitative analysis gave the following results: (1) The intimal thickness increases continuously with age. The maximal intimal growth can be observed between the 1st and 3rd and the 12th and 19th year of age, respectively. (2) The media exhibits a similar increase in thickness with a maximal growth between the 1st and 3rd and in the 12th year. (3) The intima-media index rises rapidly from birth until the 3rd year, with a plateau thereafter, and then increases again between the 14th and 18th year. (4) The mean values for these measurements were higher in males than in females in all the age groups except for the 1st year.
对127例0至20岁儿童及青少年的腹主动脉进行了组织形态学检查。定量分析结果如下：(1)内膜厚度随年龄持续增加。分别在1至3岁以及12至19岁之间可观察到最大内膜生长。(2)中膜厚度也有类似增加，在1至3岁以及12岁时生长达到最大。(3)内膜中膜指数从出生到3岁迅速上升，此后保持平稳，然后在14至18岁之间再次增加。(4)除1岁组外，所有年龄组中这些测量值的平均值男性高于女性。
