Hepatocellular carcinoma presenting only as portal venous tumor thrombosis: CT demonstration. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We describe two cases of hepatocellular carcinoma initially presenting with portal vein tumor thrombi but with no demonstrable tumor in the liver parenchyma outside the portal vein. Both patients had cirrhosis of the liver and had tumor thrombi in the main portal vein and its branches. The tumor thrombi were demonstrated on ultrasonography, CT, angiography as expanding intraluminal masses. 相似文献

High-attenuation recent thrombus of the portal vein: CT demonstration and clinical significance 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Attenuation characteristics of portal vein thrombi on nonenhanced computed tomographic (CT) scans were assessed in 122 patients with proved portal vein thrombosis. Portal vein thrombi of high attenuation were found in four patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. From pathologic and radiologic studies, it was concluded that the high attenuation was caused by blood clots of recent onset formed at the tip of tumor thrombus. Differentiation from choledocholithiasis, hematobilia, and calcification of thrombi could be easily made by means of ultrasonography (US). Although plain CT is usually considered noncontributory in the diagnosis of venous thrombosis, it enabled the differentiation of recent thrombus in these four patients. Tumor thrombus in the major branches or main trunk of the portal vein is indicative of poor prognosis. When hepatic mass and high-attenuation portal vein thrombi are demonstrated with plain CT and substantiated by US, enhanced CT and angiography may be unnecessary for treatment of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. 相似文献

Portal vein thrombosis is a rare complication of pancreatic inflammatory disease. Usually, the radiologic diagnosis is made either by ultrasonography, contrast-enhanced CT or angiography. Moreover, MRI seems a very promising method. CT during arterial portography (CTAP) focused on portal system proved to have a place in the evaluation of portal vein thrombosis in a particular case. 相似文献

A retrospective review of the medical and imaging records of 50 patients with portal hypertension examined in the authors' department during a 2-year period identified six patients with gallbladder wall varices. Imaging studies performed in these patients included computed tomography (CT) (four patients), duplex and color Doppler flow (five patients), and magnetic resonance (MR) (four patients). Five of six patients with gallbladder varices had portal vein thrombosis. Anechoic areas within the gallbladder wall detected with ultrasonography could be distinguished from intramural edema by using duplex or color Doppler flow imaging in all five patients in whom it was used. Contrast material enhancement of these varices was detected with CT in three patients, two of whom also had adjacent mesenteric collaterals. Gradient-echo MR imaging (fast imaging in steady precession/fast low-angle shot) showed flow-related enhancement within the gallbladder wall in two patients. The presence of gallbladder wall varices may imply the presence of portal vein thrombosis. Since these varices can be a source of major blood loss, surgeons must be made aware of them when operating on patients with portal hypertension. 相似文献

Congenital and acquired anomalies of the portal venous system. 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31

Knowledge of the normal anatomy, most frequent variants, and congenital and acquired anomalies of the portal venous system is of great importance for liver surgery and interventional procedures such as creation of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts. Radiologic studies of the portal venous system include color Doppler ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging, and arterial or direct portography. Among the most common branching variants of the portal vein are trifurcation, right anterior portal branch arising from the left portal vein, and right posterior portal branch arising from the main portal vein. Agenesis of the right or left portal vein is the most frequently reported congenital anomaly. Venous collateral vessels due to portal hypertension and cavernous transformation of the portal vein are best evaluated with cross-sectional imaging. Intrahepatic portosystemic, arterioportal, and arteriosystemic fistulas and associated perfusion anomalies have characteristic features at dual-phase helical CT. Color Doppler US is the single most useful tool for demonstration of aneurysms of the portal venous system and bland or neoplastic portal vein thrombosis. CT is also the best means of evaluating gas in the portal venous system, which is no longer an ominous sign and must be differentiated from aerobilia. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To determine the performance of radiologists with differing levels of expertise in the diagnosis of the most common types of liver tumors with central scars (ie, focal nodular hyperplasia [FNH], fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC], and large hepatic hemangioma) by using specific computed tomographic (CT) findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Review of medical records at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center identified patients with a total of 64 liver tumors that had central scars-including 29 cases of FNH, 20 fibrolamellar HCCs, and 15 large (>3.5 cm in diameter) hemangiomas-and with CT scans available for review. Retrospective review of these scans was performed individually by six radiologists who were blinded to the diagnosis, including two faculty abdominal radiologists, one abdominal imaging fellow, and three radiology residents. Individual performance was evaluated by means of receiver operating characteristic analysis, and interobserver agreement was measured by using the Cronbach alpha. Individual CT findings that may allow differentiation of tumor types were identified with the Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: CT allowed good to excellent interobserver agreement in the diagnosis of tumor type and in recognition of differential findings among the three types. The individual accuracy of diagnosis was very good, with the average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ranging from 0.81 to 0.90. Although the faculty radiologists performed the best, the differences in performance between the subgroups of readers and the levels of confidence in diagnosis were not statistically significant. The diagnosis of fibrolamellar HCC was the most accurate and had the highest sensitivity, followed by FNH and large hemangioma. Clinical and CT findings that were found to be statistically significant in differentiating tumor types were patient age and sex, tumor size larger than 10 cm, width of tumor scars, invasion of vessels, nodular centripetal enhancement, marked hyperattenuation on arterial phase images, lymphadenopathy, heterogeneity, extrahepatic metastases, surface lobulation, calcification, and isoattenuation with liver tissue on portal venous phase images. CONCLUSION: CT allows accurate differentiation of the most common types of liver tumors with central scars, including FNH, fibrolamellar HCC, and large hemangioma. 相似文献

Relationship between various patterns of transient increased hepatic attenuation on CT and portal vein thrombosis related to acute cholecystitis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

OBJECTIVE: We sought to investigate the prevalence of portal vein thrombosis in patients with acute cholecystitis and the relationship between portal vein thrombosis and the various patterns of transient increased hepatic attenuation on CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We studied 72 of 107 patients with acute cholecystitis who, during a 3-year period, underwent dual-phase contrast-enhanced CT before percutaneous cholecystostomy or cholecystectomy. CT scans were retrospectively reviewed for the presence of portal vein thrombosis and location of the thrombi and for patterns of transient increased hepatic attenuation, which were classified as either pericholecystic, segmental, or mixed. RESULTS: Portal vein thrombi (two in hepatic segment IV, three in the left portal vein, and one in the right posterior portal vein) were found in six (8.3%) of 72 patients, and in those patients, transient increased attenuation with a segmental (five patients) or mixed (one patient) pattern was seen on CT. The pattern of transient increased attenuation in the 54 patients without portal vein thrombosis was pericholecystic in 41 (75.9%) and mixed in 13 (24.1%). Nineteen patients had segmental distribution (segmental or mixed pattern) that in 31.6% (6/19) of the patients was associated with portal vein thrombosis. Segmental distribution was more frequently found in those patients who had acute cholecystitis with portal vein thrombosis than in those who had only acute cholecystitis (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: In patients with acute cholecystitis, portal vein thrombosis is not uncommon. Patterns of transient increased hepatic attenuation were found to vary, depending on the presence or absence of portal vein thrombosis. 相似文献

The aim was to compare the performances of contrast-enhanced (CE) ultrasonography (US) and spiral computed tomography (CT) in the detection and characterization of portal vein thrombosis complicating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We studied 50 patients with HCC who had biopsy-proven portal vein thrombi that had been detected with US and color Doppler US. Thirteen of the thrombi involved the main portal trunk and 37 the segmental branches. CEUS and CT were performed within a week of thrombus biopsies. For each imaging technique, diagnoses of thrombosis (present/absent) and thrombus nature (malignancy/benignancy) were made by experienced readers under blinded conditions and compared with pathological findings to determine accuracy rates for thrombus detection and characterization. Forty-four of the 50 thrombi were pathologically diagnosed as malignant and the remaining six were benign. CEUS detected 50/50 (100%) thrombi and correctly characterized 49/50 (98%). CT detected 34/50 (68%) thrombi and correctly characterized 23 of these 34 (68%). CEUS outperformed CT in terms of both thrombus detection (P < 0.0001) and characterization (P = 0.0001). CEUS appears to be significantly superior to CT for detection and characterization of portal vein thrombosis complicating HCC, and it should be considered in the staging of these tumors. 相似文献

CT of hepatoma: effects of portal vein obstruction 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
CT images were studied in five patients with hepatocellular carcinoma associated with obstruction of branches of the portal vein. Two were solitary tumors located near the porta hepatis and were seen as low density areas. In addition noncancerous areas with impaired portal drainage also had lower densities than normally perfused areas. In one instance, gross and histologic studies performed on the resected specimen showed atrophy of hepatic tissue. The other three patients had disseminated tumors with multiple low density areas on CT. Additional low density areas were seen in patients with concomitant obstruction of branches of the portal vein. A decrease in portal blood flow will change the appearance of hepatocellular carcinoma of CT. 相似文献

Change in the hemodynamics of the portal venous system after retrograde transvenous balloon occlusion of a gastrorenal shunt 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our investigation was to examine changes in the hemodynamics of the liver after artificial occlusion of a gastrorenal shunt. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Nine patients with portal hypertension underwent splenic arteriography and CT arterial portography during infusion of contrast material via the splenic artery. Images were obtained with the balloon catheter both inflated and deflated in the gastrorenal shunt, and results were compared. RESULTS: During the portal phase of splenic arteriography, the intrahepatic portal vein was more clearly seen when the balloon occluded the gastrorenal shunt. Mean CT attenuation values of branches of the intrahepatic portal vein on CT arterial portograms acquired when the balloon catheter was inflated were higher than values acquired when the balloon was deflated; however, results for the inferior vena cava were the opposite. Differences in CT attenuation values were statistically significant for the right branch of the portal vein, main portal vein, right lobe of the liver parenchyma, and inferior vena cava. CONCLUSION: Closure of large gastrorenal shunts (hepatofugal portasystemic shunts) causes the portal blood flow to switch from hepatofugal to hepatopetal, which increases the effective intrahepatic portal blood flow. 相似文献

Preoperative percutaneous portal vein embolization: evaluation of adverse events in 188 patients 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23

PURPOSE: To retrospectively assess the frequency of adverse events related to percutaneous preoperative portal vein embolization (PPVE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional review board did not require its approval or patient informed consent for this study. The adverse events that occurred during PPVE or until planned hepatic surgery was performed or cancelled were retrospectively obtained from clinical, imaging, and laboratory data files in 188 patients (109 male and 79 female patients; mean age, 60 years; range, 16-78 years). Liver resection was planned for metastases (n = 137), hepatocarcinoma (n = 31), cholangiocarcinoma (n = 15), fibrolamellar hepatoma (n = 1), and benign disease (n = 4). PPVE was performed with a single-lumen 5-F catheter and a contralateral approach with n-butyl cyanoacrylate mixed with iodized oil as the main embolic agent. The rate of complications in patients with cirrhosis was compared with that in patients without cirrhosis by using the chi(2) test. RESULTS: Adverse events occurred in 24 (12.8%) of 188 patients, including 12 complications and 12 incidental imaging findings. Complications included thrombosis of the portal vein feeding the future remnant liver (n = 1); migration of emboli in the portal vein feeding the future remnant liver, which necessitated angioplasty (n = 2); hemoperitoneum (n = 1); rupture of a metastasis in the gallbladder (n = 1); transitory hemobilia (n = 1); and transient liver failure (n = 6). Incidental findings were migration of small emboli in nontargeted portal branches (n = 10) and subcapsular hematoma (n = 2). Among the 187 patients in whom PPVE was technically successful, there was a significant difference (P < .001) between the occurrence of liver failure after PPVE in patients with cirrhosis (five of 30) and those without (one of 157). Sixteen liver resections were cancelled due to cancer progression (n = 12), insufficient hypertrophy of the nonembolized liver (n = 3), and complete portal thrombosis (n = 1). CONCLUSION: PPVE is a safe adjuvant technique for hypertrophy of the initially insufficient liver reserve. Post-PPVE transient liver failure is more common in patients with cirrhosis than in those without cirrhosis. 相似文献

Five patients with partial or complete portal vein thrombosis were examined by both computed tomography (CT) and pulsed Doppler duplex scanning. Duplex scanning correctly identified portal vein thrombosis in all five. Duplex sonography may be the preferred technique to detect and follow portal vein thrombosis because of lower cost, lack of need for intravenous contrast material, and easier availability for multiple follow-up examinations. 相似文献

Hepatic lobar atrophy following obstruction of the ipsilateral portal vein from hilar cholangiocarcinoma 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Gross deformity of the liver associated with hilar carcinoma is rare. In 17 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and intrahepatic bile duct dilatation, the relationships between lobar or segmental atrophy, compensatory hypertrophy, and patency of portal vein branches were evaluated with computed tomography (CT) and angiography. All six patients with obstructed or narrowed portal veins (group A) had lobar or segmental atrophy on CT scans and angiograms. Compensatory hypertrophy was observed in the unaffected lobe with a patent portal vein in five. In contrast, neither hepatic atrophy nor hypertrophy was demonstrated in the other 11 patients with patent portal veins. All group A patients had differences in hepatic attenuation on CT scans or dense opacification during the hepatogram phase of angiography. Biliary decompression was optimized when the bile duct selected for percutaneous drainage paralleled a patent portal vein. Knowledge of radiologic findings will assist in determining the primary site along the bile duct from which carcinoma has arisen. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To determine the presence and location of portal vein thrombi in patients who have undergone ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and who were scanned with computed tomography (CT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: During a 4-year period, 92 of 702 patients underwent contrast medium-enhanced CT after a total proctocolectomy with an IPAA. These CT scans were retrospectively reviewed for portal vein thrombus presence, location, and occlusive nature, as well as any accompanying enhancement abnormalities of the hepatic parenchyma. Only 13 patients who had initial CT scans that were positive for thrombi underwent follow-up examinations, and these were reviewed for resolution or progression of the original findings. RESULTS: Portal vein thrombi were present in 41 (45%) of the 92 patients; 24 (59%) of the 41 were isolated, often multiple, segmental right lobe thrombi. Five patients had both right and left segmental vein involvement. Eleven patients had various combinations of main portal vein, right and left portal vein, or segmental vein thrombi. One patient had an isolated superior mesenteric vein thrombus. Twenty-two of 25 superior mesenteric vein, main portal vein, and right and left portal vein thrombi were nonocclusive, while most (63 of 86) of the segmental vein thrombi were occlusive. Wedge-shaped, peripheral areas of hepatic parenchymal hyperenhancement that were distal to the thrombi were present in 30 (73%) of the 41 patients. Follow-up scans obtained in the 13 patients with portal vein thrombi showed thrombi resolved in five patients, progression to cavernous transformation occurred in one patient, and parenchymal enhancement changes persisted in seven patients. In the seven patients with persistent enhancement changes, four had complete resolution of thrombi. CONCLUSION: Portal vein thrombi appear to be relatively common after IPAA surgery and are most likely segmental, multiple, and occlusive. Peripheral wedge-shaped areas of hepatic parenchymal hyperenhancement commonly accompany these thrombi. 相似文献

Hepatocellular carcinoma: assessment of resectability by computed tomography and ultrasound 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A retrospective review of the CT and ultrasound scans from examinations of 30 patients who had hepatocellular carcinoma (hepatoma) was undertaken with special emphasis placed on evaluation of hepatic distribution of tumor, vascular invasion, and extrahepatic spread. Although both CT and ultrasound detected hepatoma in 29 of 30 patients (96%), CT showed more extensive hepatic parenchymal involvement in eight of the patients. Vascular invasion was seen more frequently with ultrasound than with CT. Invasion into the main portal vein was seen by ultrasound in 11 of 30 patients (37%). Extrahepatic spread of tumor was much more frequently detected by CT and was present in 21 of 30 patients (70%). A reasoned approach to the diagnostic workup of hepatomas that will minimize invasive procedures and unnecessary surgery is presented. 相似文献

Summary Twenty-five infants with histologically verified brain tumours presenting during the first year of life and diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) were studied. The clinical features are presented, the results of surgery assessed and the CT findings analysed and compared with the macroscopic appearance of the tumours. Since the introduction of CT, the number of intracranial tumours diagnosed in infancy has increased, particularly in the supratentorial location. In our study, astrocytomas were the most common, followed by choroid plexus papillomas, ependymomas and primitive glial tumours. At diagnosis, many tumours had become large, but usually had a well-defined edge, suggesting expansion rather than infiltration. The CT features generally corresponded to the macroscopic appearance of the tumours. The operative mortality in the series was 20%. 相似文献

We describe a case of a ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma supplied by the portal vein that was successfully treated with portal vein embolization via a percutaneous transumbilical approach. A contrast material-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) scan showed the presence of a large hypervascular tumor on portal venous phase as well as right hepatic vein thrombosis and hemoperitoneum that prevented portal vein embolization by the use of the percutaneous and transjugular transhepatic approach. The use of percutaneous transumbilical portal vein embolization can be an alternative option in this situation. 相似文献

Summary Twentyone primary intracranial haemangiopericytomas (HPC) were operated on from 1953 to 1983. The mean age of the 12 male and nine female patients was 38 years (17–64). Plain skull films showed well-defined bone destruction in two patients. Angiograms of 18 tumours (14 primary and four recurrent) showed the following when analysed according to the criteria of Marc et al. [4]: dual arterial supply (17/18), one-three main feeders giving rise to many irregular corkscrewlike vessels (16/18), dense, well-defined and long-lasting tumour stain (17/18), but early venous drainage rarely (1/18). The overall impression was that eight tumours appeared to be typical HPCs on angiogram. Five tumours had suggestive features, though not enough to justify specific angiographic diagnosis, and five were more like classical meningiomas. The larger tumours were more typical of HPCs, the smaller ones resembled meningiomas.CT scans of eight tumours (three primary and five recurrent) were available. The tumours were attached with a broad base to the convexity or other dural surfaces, often bilaterally. No calcifications were seen. There was little, if any, surrounding oedema. Contrast enhancement was strong and homogeneous. Four of the tumours were ring like, but the ring was thick and regular, in contrast to that in glioblastomas. The tumour margin was well-defined and smooth in three tumours, and nodular margins were seen in five; two of the latter grew extensively along dural surfaces. This sign may suggest aggressive biological behaviour. If both angiograms and CT scans are available, HPCs can be differentiated from glioblastomas and classical meningiomas, but perhaps not from anaplastic meningiomas. 相似文献
