Abstract:
Objective To study the aesthetic standard and parameters of abdominal profile in young females, in order to provide anatomic data for abdomino plasty and umbilicus reconstruction or transposition. Methods Measurements were conducted in 281 young health females, including height, weight, abdominal length, abdominal width and umbilicus location. All data were analyzed. Results The abdominal length, abdominal width, length from appendix ensiformis to omphalion, length from appendix ensiformis to middle point between appendix ensiformis and symphysion were (37. 93 ± 2. 15), (36. 98 ± 2. 71), (21. 10±1.80), and (18. 96±1. 08) cm, respectively. Abdominal length was positively correlated with height. Abdominal width, and the ratio between abdominal length and width were positively correlated with weight. The location of umbilicus was lower 2. 1 cm than middle point between appendix ensiformis and symphysion. Conclusion The abdominal profile is significant for clinical reference during abdomino plasty and umbilicus reconstruction or transposition.
