PURPOSE: To evaluate clinical and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) features associated with the presence and size of microaneurysms in @entity8 ( @entity359 ). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The MDCTs and digital subtraction angiographies (DSAs) of 31 @entity1 who had further percutaneous @entity1416 of @entity359 were retrospectively reviewed. They were 22 @entity1 and 9 @entity1 (mean age, 47.7  27.7 years). The medical files of the included @entity1 were reviewed for age, gender and clinical features. MDCT and DSA images were analyzed by two readers working in consensus. RESULTS: Of the 31 @entity1 , 15 had @entity2916 ( @entity2916 ) or @entity3008 ( @entity3008 ). In total, the 31 @entity1 had 54 @entity359 (5 ruptured). On DSA, 28 clusters of microaneurysms were found in 17 @entity1 (21 @entity359 ). Four of the five ruptured @entity359 had microaneurysms. None of the 12 @entity359 <=40mm and 21 of the 42 @entity359 >40mm had microaneurysms. Among @entity359 >40mm, history of @entity2916 / @entity3008 (P=0.5), RENAL score (P=0.7) and relative volume of fat (P=0.11) did not significantly predict the presence of microaneurysms. Microaneurysms were significantly larger in ruptured (9.5  5.7mm) than non-ruptured (3.9  1.9mm, P=0.02) @entity359 . No associations were found between the size of microaneurysms and the size of @entity359 . CONCLUSION: Microaneurysms were found in no AML  <=40mm and in 50%of @entity359 >40mm. In @entity359 >40mm, history of @entity2916 / @entity3008 , RENAL score and relative volume of fat did not significantly predict the presence of microaneurysms.

XXXX : Can clinical and computed tomography features predict their presence and size?
