The size of normal appendix under B ultrasound?

summary

The appendix, also known as vermis, is a slender and curved blind tube. It is located at the right lower part of the abdomen, between the cecum and ileum. Its root is connected to the posterior medial wall of the cecum, and its distal end is free and closed. The location of its range of motion varies from person to person, and it varies greatly. Affected by the mesentery, the appendix can extend to any position of the abdominal cavity. The appendix is located in the right lower part of the abdomen, between the cecum and ileum. It is a slender and curved blind tube with distal atresia. What is the proper diameter of normal appendix? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

The size of normal appendix under B ultrasound?

First, the length of appendix is 1.58cm, the diameter is 4-7mm. The appendix was vermiform in 18 cases (18 / 31, 58%), tubular in 10 cases (10 / 31, 32.3%), short tubular in 3 cases (3 / 31, 9.7%), and blind in the distal end.

Second, the diameter of appendix is uniform, the proximal part is thinner, the distal part is thicker, and the distal part is beaded. The frequency of appendix diameter was mostly 4.6-5.4mm, with an average of 5mm. The maximum length of appendix was 9 cm, the minimum was 1.7 cm, and the average was 5.2 cm,

Third, the root of Appendix (27 / 31, 87.1%) was located in the posterior part of cecum, and 4 / 31, 12.9% in the tip of cecum. The distance between the appendix and the tip of cecum was mostly concentrated in 1-4cm, with an average of 2.5cm, rarely more than 4.2cm.

matters needing attention

1. Don't overeat: if you are hungry and full, your diet is irregular, and your gastrointestinal tract will lose its normal filling and emptying; And overeating, can suddenly increase the gastrointestinal burden, increase the mechanical stimulation of food. 2. Pay attention to the changes of seasons and climate, adjust the relationship between the body and nature in time, reduce clothing in hot weather and add clothing in cold weather, especially to protect the abdomen from cold stimulation and maintain the normal functional state of gastrointestinal tract.
