假肿瘤性胰腺炎10例影像诊断

本文报告了10例假肿瘤性胰腺炎（PseudotumorousPancreatitis），结合文献报道分析了该病的临床表现、影像学征象、手术探查结果和病理表现。笔者认为：本病在组织学论断前难以和胰腺肿瘤鉴别，对年龄较轻且无黄疸的患者可作经皮穿刺活俭及随诊明确诊断，对年龄较大或有黄疸者应考虑手术探查。     

Ultrasonography of rotator cuff tears: a review of 500 diagnostic studies

Ultrasonography of the rotator cuff has been shown to be of value in diagnosing rotator cuff tears. This report summarizes our experience with our first 500 diagnostic examinations. All patients were examined in the hyperextended internal rotation view with commercially available high-resolution real-time ultrasound equipment. Patients were diagnosed as having a rotator cuff tear if a focal echogenic lesion or a defect within the rotator cuff was identified. This study confirmed the value of ultrasonography for the diagnosis of rotator cuff tears. Accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity all exceeded 90%, and correlated with surgical findings. This was better than arthrography in the same patient population. Ultrasound is an accurate noninvasive method of examining the rotator cuff for the presence of tears. We suggest that rotator cuff ultrasonography is the procedure of choice for the diagnosis of tears if adequate instrumentation is available.     

超声显像与膀胱镜对膀胱肿瘤的诊断价值

对经手术和病理证实的８３例膀胱肿瘤进行超声显像和膀胱镜检查的对比性分析。结果表明，膀胱镜对膀胱肿瘤的诊断符合率为９７．５％，略高于超声显像符合率的９５．２％；但对膀胱肿瘤的术前分期，膀胱镜检查尚存在局限性，而超声显像可弥补膀胱镜检查的不足。本文超声显像对膀胱肿瘤的术前分期准确率达８９．５％。超声显像对小于０．５ｃｍ的小膀胱肿瘤之检出率不如膀胱镜高。因此在常规检查以及对肿瘤的术前分期时，应以超声显像作为首选，同时结合膀胱镜检查，可进一步提高膀胱肿瘤的术前诊断正确率。     

Role of transrectal ultrasonography in the evaluation of azoospermic men with low-volume ejaculate.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the incidence of distal ejaculatory system defects with transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS) among patients evaluated for azoospermia. METHODS: Forty-two patients with low-volume ejaculate and azoospermia were evaluated by physical examination, serum follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone level determination, karyotyping, selective screening for cystic fibrosis mutations, and TRUS. RESULTS: On physical examination, in 29 patients (69%), either 1 (12 patients) or both (17 patients) of the vasa deferentia could not be palpated. In the group of 17 patients with bilateral involvement of the vasa deferentia, the ultrasonographic imaging universally showed bilateral absence or hypoplasia of the seminal vesicles with bilateral agenesis of the vasa deferentia and nonvisualization of both ejaculatory ducts. In the patients with a unilateral abnormality on physical examination, the ultrasonographic imaging showed absence of the ipsilateral seminal vesicle in 7 patients and the hypoplastic seminal vesicle in 5. In the group of 13 patients with normal physical examination findings, a variety of obstructive causes were diagnosed by TRUS examination. CONCLUSIONS: According to this study, TRUS appears to be a sensitive method for evaluating the anatomy of the distal ejaculatory system. Its safety and low costs make it a good alternative to the other invasive and expensive methods.     

单心室复合畸形超声诊断

目的 探讨单心室复合畸形的超声诊断。方法 总结我院经静脉造影和手术证实的9例单心室畸形的超声探查方法和结果。首先经仰卧位剑下探查，然后经胸骨旁、心尖切面、胸骨上窝切面完善和证实各种心内畸形并对比分析。结果 9例中男6例，女3例，年龄3．5～Il岁。其单心室均伴大动脉转位、心内畸形。结论 剑下切面可确认内脏心房位，初步确认大动脉关系硬心内畸形。多切面寻找室间隔或始基室间隔的位置和形态是鉴别诊断的关键，肺动脉发育状况可估测病情程度。     

Haemodynamic studies in early stroke

Summary We investigated prospectively a consecutive series of 81 patients suffering from acute middle cerebral artery (MCA) ischaemia by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) within 24 h of the onset of symptoms. To monitor the haemodynamic changes follow-up recordings were carried out at short intervals during the next 2–3 weeks until stable haemodynamic status was achieved. In order to estimate the value of early TCD examinations in predicting the extent of brain damage seen later on, initial MCA flow reduction was correlated with infarction size and pattern on computed tomography. Fifty-three cases showed sufficient ultrasound penetration through the temporal bone. MCA flow asymmetries were recorded in 45 patients (85%); occlusion was observed in 17. Recanalization occurred in 11 patients followed by transient hyperaemia in 3, leaving residual stenosis in 2. Initial increase of flow velocities normalized within days or weeks in 7 out of 9 patients, while 2 developed residual MCA stenosis. Nineteen patients showed a considerable flow reduction on admission, which returned to normal in 9; transient hyperaemia was detected in 5 of these. Eight patients did not show any MCA flow asymmetry. Our study revealed very variable haemodynamic changes in acute stroke, which influenced further diagnostic and therapeutic management. The high rate of spontaneous recanalizations of MCA occlusions followed by transient hyperaemia in many cases has an important bearing on thrombolytic or theological therapy. Flow velocity differences could be related to infarction pattern rather than to infarction volume. Early MCA flow asymmetry recorded by TCD within the first 24 h could not reliably predict the extent of persistent brain damage or clinical outcome.

目的 研究彩色多普勒超声诊断房间隔缺损(ASD)的准确性。方法 回顾性分析经手术证实的64例ASD患者的超声检查结果并和手术结果对照。结果 64例患者中有1例三房心合并房间隔缺损畸形，1例合并右下肺静脉异位引流漏诊，术前超声正确诊断63例，定性诊断准确率达98．4％，有1例混合型定位不准确，定位准确率在98．4％，而且64例患者中超声检查结果显示在无合并其他畸形时房间缺损大小与右心系统扩大及肺动脉扩张呈正相关关系。结论 ASD是以右室容量超负荷为特征，彩色多普勒超声是诊断房间隔缺损的首选检查方法，并具有较高的准确性。     

Localized wall thickening of the gallbladder mimicking a neoplasm

Clinical diagnosis of chronic cholecystitis is made based on diffuse hyperechoic thickening of the gallbladder wall as shown by ultrasonographic examination. We herein report three cases of chronic cholecystitis showing localized hypoechoic thickening of the gallbladder wall that mimicked gallbladder cancer by ultrasonography. Histologically, hypertrophy of the muscularis propria was a common characteristic finding in these three patients. A smooth surface of the inner hypoechoic layer of the thickened wall was considered to be a reliable finding in the differential diagnosis between this type of chronic cholecystitis and gallbladder cancer.
