Abstract
This was a descriptive cross sectional study carried out in Ribat teaching hospital
- Khartoum state - Sudan from January to April 2017, which aimed to estimate of
normal main portal vein diameter using Ultrasonography.
There were one hundred cases of age ranged from seven to seventy four years, all
cases had normal liver, any patient had age eighty years old or had any hepatic
and portal vein disorder was excluded from this study.
Transabdominal scanning was done for all cases using Siemens with curvilinear
probe of 2 to 3.5 Megahertz (MHz).
Data collected using special data collection sheet designed to evaluate geneder
age, weight, height and Portal vein. For analyzing of collected data study used
Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS).
Study resulted that mean of age for cases under study was 29.9 years with stander
deviation 15.9 years, while the mean of weight 59.6 kilograms (Kgs) with stander
deviation 13.3 (Kgs), mean of height 1.65 meter with stander deviation 0.13
meter, while mean portal vein diameter 0.98 centimeter with stander deviation
0.01 centimeter. Study concluded that there was a weak correlation between portal vein diameter with age and height of cases, while there was strong correlation between portal
vein diameter with weight The study also concluded that there was no
significance correlation between portal vein diameter with gender.
Study recommended that further studies should be done with increased number of sample and introduced other age groups
