Vegetations with a maximal diameter of > 10 mm were associated with a 50% incidence of embolic events, compared with a 42% incidence of emboli in patients with vegetations measuring < or = 10 mm.
An abdominal CT revealed an abscess in the psoas region on the left side with maximal diameter of 5.8 cm.
However, there were no significant differences of the TTV among the four groups (one, two, three and four or more nodules) of patients with maximal diameter of 3-6 cm (p = 0.054) and 6 cm (p = 0.177).
Accordingly, 58 patients with the maximal diameter of the upper segments more than 1.0 cm were performed with traditional HJ, and 54 patients with that less than 1.0 cm were performed with the new designed procedure HJPBD.
The proximal aneurysm was located higher than the Hunter's canal with the maximal diameter of 15 mm, while the distal aneurysm (which was ruptured, but only with localized hematoma, not progressive bleeding) was located within the Hunter's canal with the maximal diameter of 26 mm.
The mechanically ventilated group exhibited an increased IVC maximal diameter compared with the nonventilated group (2.3 ± 0.5 cm versus 1.9 ± 0.5 cm, respectively; P = 0.015 [equal variance assumed; Levene's test P = 0.88]).
Indeed, the detection rate for small peritoneal lesions is poor, with reported sensitivities of only 7 50% for those with a maximal diameter of less than 10 mm.
Substructures with a maximal diameter of 4 bonds were considered.
An IVC with a maximal diameter of ≤ 2 cm and > 50% collapse was considered collapsible.
An IVC with a maximal diameter of ≥ 2 cm and < 50% collapse was considered plethoric.
The son consulted the Department of Gastrointestinal Medicine at our institute with dysphagia, and an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a gastric submucosal tumor with a maximal diameter of approximately 50 mm.
