Kimura病的CT、MRI表现

Objective To study the imaging features of Kimura disease to improve diagnostic ability prior to surgery.Methods The clinical manifestations and CT and MR findings of 11 patients with histologically confirmed Kimura disease were retrospectively analyzed.All 11 tumors originated from (or involved)the parotid region in 7 cases, the maxillofacial region in 2 cases, the palate in one case and the groin in one case.Clinically, the lesions showed asymptomatic tumors with the mean clinical course over 2 years.The increase of cosinophilic granulocyte was found in all 11 cases.Results On CT and MRI,5 patients were single masses and others were muhi-nodular masses.The smallest lesion was 6 mm×3 mm,and the largest lesion was 60 mm × 34 mm.The lesions were almost ill-defined in the subcutaneous tissue,especially 10 locating underlying superficialfascia in head and neck.On CT,the lesions showed homogeneous hypodense to the muscle in 9 patients.The lesions appeared isointeuse signal or slightly hypointense on MR T1WI and slightly hyperinteuse on T2WI in 3 patients.All lesions revealed moderate or marked, and homogeneous or inhomngeneous enhancement.Regional lymph nodes (eight cases in the maxillofacial region and one in the groin) enlarged without necrosis and fusion, and with marked enhancement.Conclusion The clinical and imaging findings of Kimura disease have some characteristics, the diagnosis can be made combined with the laboratory examination.     

Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the abdominal cavity: CT findings and pathological correlation

AIM:To study computed tomography(CT)features of abdominal malignant fibrous histiocytoma(MFH)in various rare locations.METHODS:We retroprospectively identified cases of MFH involving the abdominal cavity.Particular attention was paid to details regarding imaging features and histological types.RESULTS:The study population consisted of seven men and one woman,with a mean age of 52.5 years.Seven patients had some physical symptoms,while one was incidentally detected.The sites of origin were liver(n=3),greater omentum(n=1),superior mesentery(n=1),ileum(n=1),right psoas muscle(n=1)and right kidney(n=1).With the exception of the ileum lesion,all were of huge size.The contour of the lesions was more or less clear.Foci of necrosis were present in six lesions(n=6).On plain CT scan,all lesions were hypo to iso dense.The lesion in the greater omentum was cystic.One lesion(n=1)showed significant enhancement and the cystic lesion showed mild peripheral enhancement.An abundance of blood vessels surrounding the mass was seen in two lesions(n=2)and both were of the inflammatory variety.Pathological examination revealed storiform-pleomorphic variety(n=4),inflammatory variety(n=3)and myxoid variety(n=1).Two of the patients with inflammatory MFH had a clinical presentation of fever and one was afebrile,however,blood investigations in all three showed leukocytosis.CONCLUSION:Primary MFHs of the abdominal viscera and gastrointestinal tract are generally huge soft tissue masses containing areas of low attenuation and mild to moderate contrast enhancement.     

脉络膜血管瘤的MRI表现及动态增强研究

Objective To characterize the regular and the dynamic contrast enhancement MR imaging in choroidal hemangioma.Methods MR imaging findings of 30 cases (31eyes, 32 lesions) with choroidal hemangioma confirmed by follow-up results were retrospectively analyzed.Among them, postcontrasted T1-weighted imaging was performed in 30 patients and dynamic contrast enhancement scanning was performed in 26 cases.MRI findings and the time-intensity curve of dynamic contrast enhancement were analyzed.Results Among the 32 choroidal hemangiomas, 26 of them were at the temporal side of optic disc and 28 lesions were fusiform.Before enhancement, 23 lesions showed isointense T1-weighted signal and 31 lesions were isointense on T2-weighted imaging.All the lesions showed strong enhancement on postcontrast T1-weighted imaging, including 31 homogenously enhanced lesions and one heterogeneously enhanced lesion.Retinal detachments were found in 18 eyes.Fill-in sign were observed in 12 lesions during dynamic contrast enhancement.The time-intensity curve of dynamic contrast enhancement in 28 lesions suggested a pattern with rapid enhancement and slow washout, time to peak (91.00±25.27) s, slope ratio 3.03±1.13, the median of washout ratio 17.06%, enhancement ratio 2.87±0.79.Conclusion MRI showed a few features of the location, shape, signal characteristics, and enhancement pattern in choroidal hemangioma, which may contribut to diagnosis and treatment plan of this disease.
