MORPHOMETRIC FEATURES OF UNPAIRED BRANCHES OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA IN TERMS OF AGE AND SEX

Background. Currently, there is an increasing interest in studying the anatomical structure of the unpaired branches of the abdominal part of the aorta in connection with the development of transplantology, endovascular and minimally invasive surgery. Objective. To study changes in the morphometric parameters of unpaired branches of the abdominal aorta in men and women at different age periods of adult life. Material and methods. An analysis of 190 (93 men and 97 women) computer scans of unpaired aortic branches was performed.Results. It has been established that individual morphometric parameters of unpaired branches of the abdominal aorta in men and women change significantly with age. Conclusion. In general, a number of morphometric indicators of unpaired branches of the abdominal aorta change significantly with age. The data obtained are important for carrying out X-ray endovascular interventions.
