ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the ultrasound characteristics of benign and malignant endometrial lesions in postmenopausal women terminology.Methods:
Patients with endometrial lesions who underwent transvaginal ultrasound examination in Beijing Tiantan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2019 to November 2021 were selected.Pathological diagnosis after surgery was used as the gold standard, and endometrial lesions were divided into a benign group(including endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial polyps)and a malignant group(endometrial cancer)according to surgical pathology results.Endometrial thickness and Doppler flow parameters were compared between the benign group and the malignant group.The chi-square test was used to compare the echogenicity, the presence or absence of cystic areas, the integrity of the endometrial-myometrial junction, the blood flow score, and the blood supply vessels between the benign and malignant groups.A prediction model was established according to the ultrasonic characteristics.Results:
A total of 136 participants received surgery at our hospital with definitive pathological diagnoses, including 72 patients in the benign group and 64 patients in the malignant group.Peak systolic velocity(PSV) and end diastolic velocity(EDV) in malignant lesions were higher than those in benign lesions[(28.75±14.66)cm/s vs.(22.94±13.62)cm/s, (14.75±8.10)cm/s vs.(11.56±6.21)cm/s]. The thickness of malignant lesions was significantly greater than that of benign lesions[(19.31±8.97)mm vs.10.14±4.31)mm], and the blood flow resistance index was lower than that of benign lesions(14.75±8.10 vs.11.56±6.21). The differences were statistically significant( t=2.393, 2.597, 7.452, 2.028, all P<0.05). The prediction model was established based on the above ultrasonic characteristics.The area under the ROC curve for ultrasound physicians to diagnose benign and malignant endometrial lesions was 0.905( P<0.001), indicating that the prediction model had high diagnostic value.Conclusions:
Both benign and malignant endometrial lesions in postmenopausal women have different ultrasonic characteristics.Malignant lesions tend to have a larger lesion thickness, an interrupted or irregular endometrial-myometrial junction, higher blood flow signal scores, and multiple blood supply patterns.The ultrasonic prediction model has high diagnostic value for benign and malignant endometrial lesions.
