Findings of CT of the spleen were compared with those of histologic examination in 35 patients who had Hodgkin disease. CT provides a simple way to calculate splenic size. This index is also of value in the assessment of the histologic state of the spleen. An accuracy rate of 91%, specificity of 94%, and a sensitivity of 89% in diagnosing splenic localization of lymphoma was found in this study. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To correlate pretherapeutic thin-section computed tomographic (CT) findings in patients with pulmonary hypertension with the risk of fatality with treatment with epoprostenol. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy-three consecutive patients with severe pulmonary hypertension treated with epoprostenol were retrospectively separated into two groups. The first group included 12 patients who had a fatal outcome with epoprostenol therapy. The second group (n = 61) was a reference group of patients with epoprostenol-induced clinical improvement. Pretherapeutic thin-section CT scans of each patient were reviewed. RESULTS: Poorly defined nodular opacities (P =.003), septal lines (P =.04), pleural effusion (P =.01), and adenopathy (P =.009) strongly correlated with a risk of clinical worsening with treatment. In six patients in group 1, postmortem examination of the lung revealed either pulmonary veno-occlusive disease or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis. CONCLUSION: On pretherapeutic thin-section CT scans, poorly defined nodular opacities, septal lines, pleural effusion, and adenopathy should raise suspicion for pulmonary veno-occlusive disease or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis and provoke possible further evaluation before epoprostenol therapy. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Pulmonary venoocclusive disease is a rare cause of pulmonary hypertension that is often difficult to distinguish from severe primary pulmonary hypertension. Unfortunately, medical treatment of primary pulmonary hypertension with prostacyclin can be fatal in patients with venoocclusive disease, and an early pretreatment diagnosis of this uncommon condition is critical. The aim of our study was to evaluate this disease noninvasively using CT of the chest. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed cross-referenced records from 1996 to 2001 in our departments of radiology and pathology and identified 15 patients with initial pretreatment CT scans who had pathologically confirmed pulmonary venoocclusive disease. Their CT scans were compared with the CT scans of 15 consecutive patients with pathologically confirmed primary pulmonary hypertension. All patients had undergone a postmortem or posttransplantation examination. RESULTS: Ground-glass opacities were significantly more frequent in pulmonary venoocclusive disease (p = 0.003); the opacities were abundant with random zonal predominance and preferentially centrilobular distribution (p = 0.03). Subpleural septal lines and adenopathy were also significantly more frequent (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: On the initial pretreatment chest CT scan, the presence of ground-glass opacities (particularly with a centrilobular distribution), septal lines, and adenopathy are indicative of pulmonary venoocclusive disease in patients displaying pulmonary hypertension. Caution should be exercised before vasodilator therapy is initiated in the patients whose scans show such radiologic abnormalities. 相似文献

Thirty-four men with left ventricular mechanical dysfunction were admitted to an intensive care unit with either an acute myocardial infarction (Group 1, n = 18) or worsening of clinical respiratory signs and symptoms in the setting of a chronic congestive cardiomyopathy (Group 2, n = 16). On admission, all individuals had pulmonary venous hypertension classified as at least Grade 3 by standard radiographic criteria. In each subject, mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (mm Hg), extravascular lung water (EVLW) (ml/kg), and chest radiographs were serially evaluated. In the patients in whom pharmacologic therapy successfully returned left ventricular filling pressures to near normal levels (less than or equal to 15 mm Hg), the chest radiograph returned to its baseline level (defined by the discharge radiograph) later in the patients with chronic heart failure (5.1 +/- 1.0 days) than in the patients with acute myocardial infarctions (2.1 +/- 1.2 days, p less than 0.01). Radiographic changes in extravascular water (interstitial and alveolar edema) mirrored changes in EVLW, although EVLW was initially greater in Group 2 (16.3 +/- 1.8 ml/kg) than in Group 1 (10.7 +/- 1.3 ml/kg, p less than 0.01). In the patients in whom filling pressures either worsened or changed less than 3 mm Hg, EVLW and chest radiographs did not markedly change. It is concluded that changes in radiographic pulmonary edema mirror changes in indicator-dilution measurements of EVLW. Radiographic phase lag represents a slow decline in EVLW after therapy for heart failure, which is prolonged in patients with chronic failure and greater EVLW. 相似文献

Intestinal pneumatosis (IP) has been traditionally associated with intestinal infarction and poor outcome in adults; recent
studies have questioned its clinical value. To assess its diagnostic and prognostic significance, we have retrospectively
evaluated 102 patients correlating the CT finding of gastrointestinal parietal gas with clinical data and outcome. Fifty-three
patients (52%) had surgical evidence of intestinal infarction. In the remaining patients, a variety of lesions were found
including intestinal obstruction, cancer, volvulus, ulcer, hernia, trauma, Crohn's disease, diverticulitis, and iatrogenic
causes. We observed the presence of portal vein gas (PVG) associated to IP in 25.5% of cases. In patients having both IP and
PVG, intestinal infarction was observed in 69.2% of cases. In our series, overall mortality was 30.4% (31/102), and when PVG
was present, it rose to 50% (13/26). In our study, IP has been observed in a broad range of lesions with very different prognosis,
the most frequent of which was intestinal infarction. When associated to PVG, there was a much higher prevalence of intestinal
infarct, and the prognosis was definitively worse. 相似文献

Portomesenteric pneumatosis has been traditionally associated with intestinal infarction and poor outcome; however, recent
studies have questioned its clinical value. To assess its diagnostic and prognostic significance we have retrospectively evaluated
47 patients correlating the CT finding of portomesenteric vein gas with clinical data and outcome. Thirty-nine patients (83%)
had surgical evidence of intestinal infarction, four had necrotic small bowel volvulus (8.5%), two had blunt trauma, one had
necrotic gastric volvulus, and one a gastric mucosal lesion induced by a nasogastric tube. Fifteen patients survived (31.9%);
only 8/39 patients with intestinal infarction survived. Portomesenteric pneumatosis is a reliable marker of intestinal infarction
and poor outcome; however, in trauma patients this sign is associated with a better prognosis.

In 83 patients with acute pancreatitis, the initial computed tomographic (CT) examinations were classified by degree of disease severity (grades A-E) and were correlated with the clinical follow-up, objective prognostic signs, and complications and death. The length of hospitalization correlated well with the severity of the initial CT findings. Abscesses occurred in 21.6% of the entire group, compared with 60.0% of grade E patients. Pleural effusions were also more common in grade E patients. Grades A and B patients did not have abscesses, and none died, regardless of the number of prognostic signs. Abscesses were seen in 80.0% of patients with six to eight prognostic signs, compared with 12.5% of those with zero to two. The use of prognostic signs with initial CT findings results in improved prognostic accuracy. Early CT examination of patients with acute pancreatitis is a useful prognostic indicator of morbidity and mortality. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Beta-blockade (BB) has been shown to improve outcomes among patients with heart failure (HF). The impact this pharmacological approach has on the prognostic information gained from cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) is, however, unclear. METHODS: Four hundred seventeen subjects diagnosed with HF underwent CPX. The numbers of subjects prescribed and not prescribed a BB agent were 167 and 250, respectively. Subjects were tracked for cardiac-related mortality after CPX. RESULTS: Values are reported for the no-BB versus the BB group throughout. Age (57.9 +/- 13.3 vs 55.6 +/- 12.5), peak VO2 (16.2 +/- 5.7 vs 16.5 +/- 5.5 mL x kg(-1) x min(-1)), VE/VCO2 slope (34.2 +/- 9.0 vs 33.2 +/- 7.4), and peak RER (1.07 +/- 0.16 vs 1.05 +/- 0.14) were similar between groups (P > 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that the VE/VCO2 slope was the superior predictor of death in both groups (chi-square: 71.9, P < 0.001; and 18.4, P < 0.001). The optimal threshold values for VE/VCO2 slope in the no-BB and BB groups were 36.0 and 34.3, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study indicate that BB does not alter the prognostic value/characteristics of the VE/VCO2 slope. Findings from previous investigations examining the prognostic significance of CPX predominantly using HF groups not receiving a BB agent may, therefore, still be applicable in modern-day clinical practice. 相似文献

Symptomatic drug-induced hepatic adverse events due to trovafloxacin, a new fluoroquinolone antibiotic, are uncommon, but
recent severe reactions have led to restriction on its use. We report the clinical course and computed tomography findings
in a patient who developed acute liver failure shortly after commencing treatment with trovafloxacin. Extensive hepatic necrosis
occurred and the patient ultimately died of her liver disease. 相似文献

Pulmonary Aspergillus infection in patients with chronic granulomatous disease tends to involve the chest wall and consequently carries a high mortality rate. We report the findings of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in three such cases. One patient underwent both CT and MRI, one, CT only, and one, MRI only. In all three, both CT and MRI demonstrated pulmonary consolidations with direct extension to the adjacent chest wall. In both patients who were examined by CT, scans revealed permeative osteolytic changes of adjacent rib or spine compatible with osteomyelitis. In both patients who were examined by MRI, adjacent chest wall involvement was depicted on T1-weighted images and showed increased signal intensity on T2-weighted images. In one of these patients, the chest wall lesion was well defined on T2-weighted images, an appearance compatible with abscess. Epidural extension was demonstrated on MRI in the other patient, who later developed paraparesis. We suggest that CT and MRI have a complementary role in evaluating chest wall invasion by pulmonary Aspergillus infection in chronic granulomatous disease. 相似文献
