ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the correlation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) classified by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) Liver Imaging Data and Report System (LI-RADS) with differentiation degree and Ki-67 index.Methods:A multicenter, retrospective study was conducted.The clinical and CEUS imaging data of 208 patients with 208 HCC lesions from December 2017 to December 2020 in China CEUS database were included and analyzed. According to the CEUS LI-RADS version 2017 proposed by the American College of Radiology, the HCC was classified. The diagnosis and pathological information of all lesions were confirmed by pathology. The differentiation degree of HCC and the distribution of Ki-67 index in different LI-RADS categories were evaluated, and their correlation was analyzed.Results:The degree of differentiation and Ki-67 index among HCC of different CEUS LI-RADS were statistically significant ( P<0.001, P=0.009). LI-RADS M HCC was more likely to be poorly differentiated and showed a higher Ki-67 index. The category of LI-RADS was positively correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation (tau-b=-0.250, P<0.001) and the Ki-67 index (tau-b=0.178, P=0.002), that is, the higher the category of LI-RADS, the lower differentiation degree and the higher the Ki-67. Conclusions:The CEUS LI-RADS classification of HCC is correlating with the degree of differentiation and Ki-67 index.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the ultrasound imaging features and clinical characteristics in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma ( HCC ) , and assess the value of ultrasound in preoperatively predicting microvascular invasion ( M VI) of HCC . Methods One hundred and seventy‐one patients with HCC were retrospectively collected from January 2016 to July 2018 . T he ultrasound imaging features and clinical data that may be associated with M VI were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses ,and the diagnostic efficacy of independent risk factors was further evaluated . ROC curves were plotted to compare the diagnostic efficacy of combined diagnostic mode 1 ,mode 2 ,peritumoral enhancement ,and tumor margin . Results Univariate analysis showed that the serum AFP level ,tumor size ,peritumoral hypoechoic halo , peritumoral enhancement , and tumor margin were significantly correlated with M VI ( P < 0 .05 ) . M ultivariate logistic regression analysis further indicated that peritumoral enhancement and non‐smooth tumor margin were the independent risk factors for predicting M VI . T he sensitivity ,specificity ,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of peritumoral enhancement and non‐smooth tumor margin were 51 .4% vs 83 .8% ,81 .4% vs 48 .5% ,67 .9% vs 55 .4% ,and 68 .7% vs 79 .7% ,respectively . T he AUC of mode 1 ,mode 2 ,peritumoral enhancement and tumor margin were 0 .741 ,0 .716 ,0 .664 ,and 0 .661 , respectively . Conclusions Preoperative ultrasound is valuable in predicting M VI of HCC . Peritumoral enhancement and non‐smooth tumor margins are independent risk factors for predicting M VI of HCC . T umor size ,hypoechoic halo around the tumor ,and serum AFP levels must be taken into account w hen predicting MVI of HCC by using preoperative ultrasound .

ABSTRACT

To evaluate the anti-cicatricial and anti-restenosis effect of verapamil on anterior urethral stricture.
 Methods: A total of 32 patients received anterior urethral stricture were enrolled in this study. They were divided into 4 blocks according to the duration of previous urethral operations and dilations. Every block was further randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group. Experimental groups received 2 mL injection of verapamil around the anastomosis site of urethra before and after the surgery (2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 weeks after the surgery), while the control groups only received the anastomosis surgery. After surgery, maximal urinary flow rate (Qmax) was examined for all patients once the catheter was removed. In addition, they were also conducted palpation of urethral scar range. The sum of long transverse diameters of urethral scar was measured, and the narrowest urethral inner diameter was examined. The Qmax was rechecked and the urethral scar range was assessed by penis color Doppler elastography after 12 weeks of surgery. The above 4 indexes were used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of verapamil on urethral scar.
 Results: The length of palpated urethral scar in the Block 1 to 4 of the experimental groups was (22.75±1.03), (21.25±0.25), (20.75±1.03), and (20.0±0.58) mm, respectively; and those in the control groups (26.00±0.82), (24.5±1.04), (25.75±1.65), and (28.25±1.75) mm, respectively. The Qmax rates in the Block 1 to 4 of the experimental groups were (11.85±0.77), (11.33±0.81), (10.23±0.26), and (10.35±0.17) mL/s, respectively; and those in the control groups were (10.85±0.39), (10.50±0.76), (10.53±1.00), (12.60±0.39) mL/s, respectively. The Qmax rates in the Block 1 to 4 of the experimental groups were (11.73±0.87), (10.65±0.25), (10.23±0.19), and (10.35±0.29) mL/s, respectively; and those in the control groups were (8.05±0.28), (7.73±0.68), (7.53±0.92), and (9.60±0.32) mL/s, respectively. The narrowest diameters of urethral in the Block 1 to 4 of the experimental groups were (9.00±0.58), (7.50±2.89), (7.00±0.10), and (7.00±0.41) mm, respectively; and those in the control groups were (5.50±0.29), (5.00±0.41), (4.75±0.48), and (6.75±0.48) mm, respectively. The ultrasound strain ratio in the Block 1 to 4 of the experimental groups were 6.10±0.22, 6.10±0.17, 5.10±0.16, and 6.90±0.19, respectively; and those in the control groups were 8.00±0.25, 10.60±0.29, 11.30±0.16, and 8.90±0.33, respectively. Compared with the control groups, the experimental groups displayed smaller urethral scar range, less severe scarring, improved Qmax rates and wider inner diameters (all P<0.05).
 Conclusion: Urethral regional injection of verapamil intraoperatively or postoperatively can prevent overgrowth of urethral scar tissues after the transperineal anastomosis surgery, and reduce the tendency of postoperative restenosis of anterior urethral stricture.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of dynamic three-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (3D-CEUS) in evaluating therapeutic response of hepatoma treated with radiofrequency ablation (RFA).Methods Totally 48 cases of patients with hepatic carcinoma (48 lesions) admitted in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from September 2012 to January 2014 were selected.All patients underwent radiofrequency ablation,of which 30 patients were diagnosed by pathology after surgery,18 patients by clinical diagnosis.All patients underwent two-dimensional contrast-enhanced ultrasound (2D-CEUS) and 3D-CEUS 1 month and 3 months after RFA treatment to evaluate the therapeutic response,and the results of contrast-enhanced ultrasound and enhanced computed tomography (CT) [or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)] were compared.The final diagnostic results of pathologic biopsy or more than two imaging examinations [ultrasonography,CT,MRI,positron emission tomography (PET)],tumor markers,and more than 3 months follow-up of patients were used as the gold standard.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of dynamic 3D-CEUS,2D-CEUS,enhanced CT (or MRI) in the diagnosis of tumor inactivation were calculated respectively.Results After radiofrequency ablation,dynamic 3D-CEUS could provide more valuable information in 75.0% (36/48) lesions,which contribute to assess the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation.While compared with 2D-CEUS,3D-CEUS did not change the diagnosis or clinical management in 12 (25.0%) lesions.40 of 48 lesions were found no-enhancement in entire CEUS procedure suggesting that the tumor completely inactivated,while 8 lesions showed local enhancement on the edge of lesion suggesting that part of the tumors were active.39 of 48 lesions showed no-enhancement and other 9 with irregular enhancement on enhanced CT (or MRI).The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of CEUS and enhanced CT (or MRI) in detection of residual tumor after radiofrequency ablation were 80.0%,100%,95.8% and 80.0%,97.4%,93.8%,respectively.Conclusions There was no statistical significance among 3D-CEUS,2D-CEUS and enhanced CT or MRI in evaluating therapeutic response of hepatoma treated with radiofrequency ablation.But 3D-CEUS can provide more valuable information,3D-CEUS has potential usefulness in the evaluation of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation of hepatic tumors.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the corelation between quantitative index and the grade of the liver function with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in hepatic cirrhosis. Methods Seventy-five patients of cirrhosis after HBV were divided into 3 groups (each n=25) on the basis of the liver function by Child-pugh method, while 20 healthy subjects were enrolled in the control group. The inner diameter and Doppler spectrum of right hepatic vein (RHVD, RHVF) were measured. After intravenous bolus injection 1.2 ml SonoVue, RHA and RHV were observed continually on real time, hepatic artery transit time (HATT) and hepatic vein transit time (HVTT) were recorded, then HTTs were calculated. Results In hepatic cirrhosis groups, RHVD decreased remarkably, RHVF was abnormal, HVTT and HTT were obviously shorter, and HTTs were shortened significantly.Conclusion CEUS may play an important role in qualitative evaluation of liver function, and HTT is more valuable than HVTT.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore three-dimensional ultrasonographic features of common ocular diseases. Methods To acquire the data, the free-hand scanning without positioning system was employed in 3 to 5 seconds. Following or after acquisitions, the data were processed and 3D image was reconstructed. Then three-dimensional ultrasonographic features of ocular diseases were characterized. Results 3D images were rendered successfully on 46 eyes of 48 ones. The reconstruction of 3D ultrasonography provided clear stereo images in which shape, dimension, structure, location of retinal detachment, choroidal detachment, vitreous fibrous membrane, lens dislocation, intraocular foreign body and intraocular trauma could be clearly demonstrated. Conclusions 3D ultrasonography needs much shorter scanning time with good space visualization. In the diagnosis of ocular diseases 3D ultrasonic reconstruction can provide more useful information than traditional 2D ultrasonography.

ABSTRACT

Objective To sum up the effect and experience in radiofrequency ablation(RFA) for liver cancer(LC). Methods The clinical data of 102 patients with LC treated by percutaneous and intraoperative RFA were analysed retrospectively. Results RFA was used to treat 195 tumors (median diameter 5.6 cm,ranging from 1.5 to 9.5 cm) in 102 patients.Of them, primary liver cancer was found in 80 patients( 78.4%),and metastatic liver tumor was in 22 patients(21.6%). Percutaneous RFA(PRFA) and intraoperative RFA(IRFA) was performed in 77 patients(75.5%) and 25 patients(24.5%) respectively. There was no severe complications after RFA in this series. All of the 102 cases had been followed up for 3~24months,AFP positive returned to negative in 70.3%(52/74)of the patients.The rate of concreted necrosis of liver cancer showed by CT was 88.2%(90/102). The 1 year survival rate was 93.8%.Conclusions RFA is a safe and effective treatment for patients with LC. Patients with small and readily accessible tumor are the indications of PRFA;while the patients with large,multiple,perivascular or otherwise inaccessible liver tumor are also the indications for IRFA.The adoption of the TACE and other methods to occlude the vascular inflow can improve the efficacy of RFA.
