dc.description.abstractObjective: There is no study in the literature investigating the association of hepatic steatosis both gynecomastia and epicardial fat thickness together. We determined the correlations between hepatic steatosis through liver density, gynecomastia and epicardial fat thickness in patients undergoing computed tomography (CT) scans due to suspected coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) symptoms. Methods: A total of 599 male patients who underwent chest CT scans because of a presumed diagnosis of COVID-19 in our radiology clinic were included in the study. Patients’ age, diameters of the subareolar glandular tissues of the right and left breasts, the right retroareolar fatty tissue, liver and spleen density, epicardial fat thickness and biochemical parameters were recorded and analyzed. Laboratory analyses were performed according to the standard methods. Results: The mean age of the patients was 47.21±15.00 years. The left subareolar tissue thickness and the right retroareolar fatty tissue thickness that are used to indicate gynecomastia were significantly correlated with liver density in the negative direction (r=-0.137, p<0.001; r=-0.172, p<0.001; respectively). Epicardial fat thickness was statistically significantly correlated with right subareolar tissue thickness (r=0.085, p=0.037), left subareolar tissue thickness (r=0.101, p=0.014) and right retroareolar fatty tissue thickness (r=0.148, p<0.001). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that gynecomastia was significantly correlated with both age and hepatic steatosis. Epicardial fat thickness is also associated with hepatic steatosis. We demonstrated the significant correlations between epicardial fat thickness and gynecomastia for the first time. Nevertheless, our results need to be confirmed by further comprehensive studies. © Copyright 2022 by Medical Journal of Bakırköyen_US
