多层螺旋CT对先天性内耳发育畸形的诊断价值

目的探讨多层螺旋CT(multi-slice computed tomography，MSCT)对先天性内耳发育畸形的诊断价值。方法对44例先天性感音神经性聋患者做MSCT横断面螺旋方式扫描及多平面重建(multi-planar reformation，MPR)，必要时做单侧重叠放大重建，并利用容积漫游技术(volume rendering technique，VRT)对骨迷路进行三维重建。结果44例患者中25例CT表现正常，19例(36耳)表现为内耳发育畸形。畸形有以下几种：Michel型(1耳次)，共同腔畸形(3耳次)，不完全分隔Ⅰ型(3耳次)，不完全分隔Ⅱ型(Mondini型，5耳次)，前庭及半规管畸形(14耳次)，前庭导水管扩大(16耳次，其中6耳次伴随其他畸形)，内耳道畸形(8耳次均伴随其他畸形)。36耳畸形中33耳MSCT横断面图像和MPR图像、VRT图像均可以清晰的显示畸形的部位和程度，其中VRT图像可以直观、立体地显示畸形的空间形态结构；3耳水平半规管短小畸形患者VRT图像较断面图像更好的显示了畸形的部位和程度。结论MSCT提高了横断面图像以及MPR、VRT图像的空间分辨率。VRT图像直观、立体的显示了骨迷路畸形的空间形态结构，并且可以通过旋转多方位观察畸形的形态。MSCT扫描结合VRT可更加准确的对内耳骨迷路畸形的部位和程度做出诊断，加深了我们对各种畸形的理解，有助于人工耳蜗植入手术计划的制定。

Diagnostic significance of multi-slice computed tomography imaging in congenital inner ear malformations

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and usability of multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) in congenital inner ear malformations. Methods Fourty-four patients with sensorineural hearing loss(SNHL) were examined by a Somatom Sensation 16(siemens,Germany) CT scanner with following parameters: 120 kV, 100 mAs, 0.75 mm collimation, 1 mm reconstruction increment, a pitch factor of 1 and a field of view of 100 mm. The axial images of interested ears were reconstructed with 0.1 mm reconstruction increment, and a field of view of 50 mm. The 3D reconstructions were done with volume rendering technique(VRT) on the workstation (3D Virtuoso and Wizard,siemens). Results Twenty-five patients were normal and 19 patients (36 ears) were congenital inner ear malformations among 44 patients scanned with MSCT. Of the malformations, all the axial, MPR and VRT images can display the site and degree in 33 ears. VRT images were superior to the axial images in displaying the malformations in 3 ears with the small lateral semicircular canal malformations. The malformations were Michel deformity (1 ear), common cavity deformity(3 ears), incomplete partition I(3 ears), incomplete partition II(Mondini deformity, 5 ears), vestibular and semicircular canal malformations(14 ears),vestibular aqueduct dilate(16 ears, of which 6 ears accompanied by other malformations),the internal auditory canal malformation(8 ears, all accompanied by other malformations). Conclusion MSCT allows a comprehensively assessing various congenital ear malformations through high quality MPR and VRT reconstructions. VRT images can display the site and degree of the malformations three-dimensionally and intuitionisticly. It is very useful to the cochlear implantation.
