PURPOSE: Swallowing disorders can be secondary to different types of diseases in which, at least initially, patients succeed in establishing voluntary or involuntary compensatory mechanisms that enable them to maintain a sufficient nutritional state. When the compensatory mechanisms become insufficient massive food aspiration into the airways can occur and suffocation may prove to be the main pathology. It has been calculated that in the USA about 8,000-10,000 people die each year due to suffocation. The dynamic radiological examination of swallowing is considered important not only for diagnosis, but also for planning a rehabilitation therapy and type of nutrition for the patient and for verifying the results of the therapy. The aim of this study is to analyse the results of our experience in the use of the digital cineradiography system to evaluate patients with normal and pathological swallowing. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed the digital cineradiography of 220 patients that at no time had undergone surgery and presented no organic pharyngeal or oesophageal disease (excluding hiatus hernia). All the exams followed a standard protocol that included the dynamic evaluation of the larynx, soft palate, pharynx, and gastro-oesophageal junction with a cineradiographic sequence of 12 frames/second with a 512x1024 matrix. There was also an archive of the film in a post-processing console. The patients received single photograms (printed on laserfilm), videotape recordings or CD-ROM of the dynamic exam. RESULTS: 137 (62%) of the patients did not present swallowing alterations although only 7 patients had a negative examination. In 35 cases hiatus hernia was appreciable while in 69 cases the hernia was associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux. In 23 cases aspecific functional disorders of the oesophagus were demonstrated and in 3 cases achalasia. The remaining 83 patients (38%) (37 males and 46 females, average age 57.02 yrs) presented alterations of the oral and/or pharyngeal stages of swallowing: reduction in soft-palate motility (2 cases), unilateral paralysis of the vocal chords (1 case), incontinence of the bolus during the oral stage (8 cases), lingual movement anomalies (4 cases), subepiglottic penetration (62 cases), asymmetric epiglottic tilt, aspiration of the contrast medium in the airway (17 cases), reduction of laryngeal and hyoid bone movement (9 cases), bolus retained in the valleculae and pyriform sinus (13 cases), cricopharyngeal spasm (6 cases), pharyngeal paralysis (1 case); hiatus hernia was also evident in 20 cases and gastro-oesophageal reflux was associated in 13 of them. Overall, 36% of the cases presented an isolated form while 64% of the cases presented a complex dysfunction with several simultaneous alterations. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The videofluorographic swallow study is an important step in the diagnostic evaluation of a dysphagic patient not only as regards the analysis of the main alteration and its capacity to confirm the presence or absence of contrast medium aspiration in the airway, but also because it provides important information on rehabilitation and nutritional orientation (oral/no oral), as well as on the results of the therapy. The recent diffusion of the digital X-ray equipment has made possible its use for the study of the organic and functional diseases of the upper alimentary tract. Currently a standard protocol for the study of swallowing with digital fluorography is not available. The technique we applied, already verified in a significant number of dysphagic patients, has allowed us to distinguish patients with normal swallowing from those with disorders of the oral and pharyngeal stage, and thus to identify disturbance and establish an appropriate rehabilitation treatment. 相似文献

AIM: To report our experience with four cases of isolated hydatid disease of the spleen studied by spiral Computed Tomography (CT) and to review the literature with special attention to the differential diagnosis with other focal lesions of the spleen. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The spiral CT images and clinical records of four patients (1 man, 3 women; age range 26-45 yrs) affected by isolated hydatid disease of the spleen were retrospectively evaluated. None of the patients had a history of hydatid disease. All the patients were evaluated by plain and enhanced spiral CT of the abdomen. All patients underwent preoperative chest X-ray and surgery; all surgical specimens were studied by histology. RESULTS: Spiral CT depicted all the hydatid lesions of the spleen. It showed the location, size, low density of their content without enhancement after iv contrast medium injection, the possible presence of daughter cysts, the appearance of the wall with calcifications, and excluded the presence of complications. The preoperative chest X-ray was negative for focal pulmonary lesions in all cases. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis of hydatid disease in all cases. CONCLUSIONS: According to our results and to the literature, spiral CT plays an important role in the pre-surgical evaluation of patients with hydatid disease of the spleen, and provides useful information for differentiating the disease from other isolated cyst-like lesions of the spleen. 相似文献

Pitfalls and limitations of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in bucket-handle tears of knee menisci 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

PURPOSE: The aim of the present study was to assess the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of bucket-handle tears of the knee menisci, determining the sensitivity and specificity of the imaging for each of the signs typical of these tears. MATERIALS AND METHODS: MR examinations of 495 patients suffering from knee traumas were assessed retrospectively. Forty-eight patients had arthroscopically-proven bucket-handle tears of the meniscus. MR examinations were performed using a 0.5-T superconducting magnet, with T1-weighted spin-echo (SE) and gradient-echo (GE) T2*-weighted sequences. Imaging findings used for the diagnosis were: a) double posterior cruciate ligament sign; b) flipped meniscus sign; c) presence of a displaced fragment of the meniscus in the intercondylar notch, visible in coronal and axial images; d) truncated triangular shape of the peripheral non-displaced portion of the meniscus, visible in coronal images. RESULTS: A total of 43 out of 48 bucket-handle tears of the meniscus were correctly diagnosed at MR, thus overall MR accuracy was 98%. In 12 (28%) cases three signs were present simultaneously the double posterior cruciate ligament (sensitivity 28%, specificity 99%, accuracy 93%) + the displaced fragment in the intercondylar notch (sensitivity 69.8%, specificity 98.7%, accuracy 96.2%) + the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus (sensitivity 74.4%, specificity 98%, accuracy 96%). In 18 (42%) cases two signs were present together the displaced fragment of the meniscus + the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus. In 13 (30%) cases only one sign was presenting two cases the truncated triangular shape of the peripheral portion of the meniscus and in 11 cases the flipped meniscus sign (sensitivity 25.6%, specificity 93.4%, accuracy 87.5%). No statistically significant differences were found comparing the results for tears of the medial meniscus with those for the lateral meniscus. CONCLUSIONS: MR imaging is highly accurate in diagnosing bucket-handle tears of the menisci due to its ability to identify a displaced fragment of the meniscus in the intercondylar notch or flipped over the anterior horn of the meniscus of origin. We speculate that bucket-handle tears not found by MR imaging are cases where the meniscus was displaced after MR examination. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To describe the plain and enhanced MRI findings of lingual venous malformations and to discuss the importance of contrast medium in the differential diagnosis of high intensity lesions of the tongue on T(2) weighted images. METHODS: The clinical records and MR images of eight patients affected by a lingual venous malformation were retrospectively reviewed. Patients presented with a palpable submucosal bluish-red soft mass in the tongue. MRI examinations were performed on a 0.5 T superconducting unit. Plain and enhanced SE (spin echo) T(1) weighted and FSE (fast spin echo) T(2) weighted images were acquired in axial, sagittal and coronal planes. Axial SPGR (spoiled gradient recalled echo) T(1) weighted images were also obtained before and after intravenous (i.v.) injection of paramagnetic contrast medium. RESULTS: Five of eight venous malformations were located at the tip of the tongue. The other three involved the whole tongue and had an extralingual extent; two extended into the submandibular space and one into the glossoepiglottic valleculae. The largest diameter ranged from 2.5 cm to 8 cm. All lingual venous malformations presented as lobulated masses that were slightly hyperintense or isointense on T(1) weighted images and highly hyperintense on T(2) weighted images with respect to normal tongue and/or surrounding muscles. They showed a slow and homogeneous filling following iv injection of contrast medium. Millimetre-sized hypointense foci and linear hypointense strands were sometimes noticed, which were owing to phleboliths, flow void or septation. CONCLUSION: Knowledge of MRI findings of lingual venous malformations is useful for differential diagnosis with other high intensity lingual lesions on T(2) weighted images. This discrimination is achievable using iv paramagnetic contrast medium. 相似文献

To date, the lesions of the popliteal system, which are responsible for the so-called postero-lateral knee instability, are still an imperfectly known chapter of knee conditions. We retrospectively analyzed 215 consecutive MR examinations performed May-August 1991 to evaluate MR capabilities in correctly depicting both the normal anatomy and the pathologic conditions of the popliteal system. Using our standard protocols for knee study and two different magnets (0.064 and 0.5 T), we identified 23 lesions of the popliteus and of its meniscal and peritoneal insertions, and 17 lesions involving also other capsular and ligamentous structures of the knee. Coronal T1-weighted images were the best ones to correctly identify normal knee anatomy, whereas sagittal T2-weighted images were more sensitive in detecting popliteal lesions. Our results had clinical or surgical confirmation in all cases. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness and diagnostic accuracy of the radiologic examination of the oesophagus and stomach in the follow-up of patients who had an anti-reflux procedure with the purpose of identifying the normal radiographic pattern, possible surgical complications and the causes of failure of the surgical treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From February 1999 to September 2000, we radiographically reviewed 11 patients (5 men and 6 women) age range 17-69, mean age 49, who had a surgical procedure of fundoplication for hiatal hernia and/or gastroesophageal reflux (7 Nissen procedures, 2 Belsey-Mark IV, 1 Toupet, 1Dor). Four surgical procedures were laparoscopic, seven were open. All patients were reviewed with single contrast (barium sulphate 60% weight/volume) and/or double contrast technique (effervescent powders + barium sulphate 250% weight/volume) and with the acquisition of radiographs in upright, supine, prone, oblique and lateral positions. RESULTS: 5 of the patients who had a fundoplication procedure suffered complications. In one patient the fundoplication was tight; in two patients the fundoplication had broken and migrated in the thorax; in one the fundoplication had loosened; in one patient it had looseed and migrated in the thorax. In the remaining 6 cases, the passage of the barium column through the fundoplication was normal, as well as the intra-abdominal position of the fundoplication. CONCLUSIONS: The possibility to perform laparoscopic fundoplication procedure has increased the number of patients selected for surgical treatment. Successful relief of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms can be achieved in 90% of patients treated with antireflux fundoplication. Less than 10% of cases may have complications, with recurrence of gastroesophageal reflux manifestations. The radiographic examination of the esophagus and stomach still represents an effective diagnostic test in the follow-up of these patients. 相似文献

This paper examines the diagnostic potential of multislice computed tomography enteroclysis (MSCT-E) to detect and assess different diseases affecting the small bowel, emphasising the increasingly important role assumed by the technique in the study of this anatomical region. After a short summary of the technical aspects, we discuss the different findings that can be observed during an MSCT-E study and that enable detection of small-bowel disease and, if necessary, assessment of the extent and stage of disease. 相似文献
