The changes in the spleen volume between the AAA group and the control group. a Boxplots of the spleen volume in the AAA group and the control group.There was no significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.4546). b Correlation of spleen volume with age among all the patients. The correlation between spleen volume with age was not significant (P = 0.2377). c Boxplots of the spleen volume in large AAA (Dmax > 5.5 cm) (n = 15) and small AAA (Dmax < 5.5 cm) (n = 15). There was significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.0167). d Correlation of spleen volume with Dmax among patients between 50 and 80 years old. There was a significant moderate positive correlation between spleen volume and Dmax (r = 0.3611; P = 0.0423)
