OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of @entity694 ( @entity694 ) and its relation with other clinical and radiological findings of @entity101 . EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Retrospective observational study. The follow-up period was at least 1 year. The colon wall was considered to be thickened when it measured > 6 mm. SUBJECTS: The study included 63 @entity1 , what were admitted in Liver Unit of University and General Hospital of Alicante with @entity1575 who had an abdominal CT scan performed between March 1996 and December 1998. RESULTS: 21 (33.3%) @entity1 showed @entity694 . This finding was particularly associated with the presence of collateral circulation [ OR = 10.3(1.5-100.8)] and portal @entity715 [OR = 12.8(1.4-118.4)] p<0.05. @entity1 with @entity694 tended to develop spontaneous @entity298 ( @entity694 14.3% vs no @entity694 4.8%) [RR = 3(0.5 -16.6)] but this did not reach statistical significance (p= 0.18). CONCLUSIONS: A third of the @entity1 with @entity82 and @entity101 present @entity694 . This finding is related to radiological features and clinical consequences of @entity101 .
