Abstract

A study was done to find oat the intim, thickness of abdominal aorta of Bangladeshi males of different ages. The subjects were divided into lower (8-29 years). middle (30-40 years). higher (42-92 nears) age groups. Six good Mallory-Awn stained histological slides. section front lower most 2 cm portion of the abdominal norm along the margin fits bifurcation of three age groups were prepared for this study. After standardizing the ocular micromerer with rite stage micrometer for the particular objective and eyepiece, each study slide was placed in rite place of stage micrometer and intimal thickness was measured in ocular micrometer division. Unpaired student 9' test Jiff statistical analysis revealed that the mean !tinnier thickness varied significantly (P<0.05) in the middle and the higher age groups comparison to that in the lower age group.
