肝脏少见肿瘤的CT诊断

目的：探讨CT增强扫描在肝脏少见肿瘤的诊断及治疗方案选择中的价值。方法：回顾性分析8例经手术及病理检查证实、2例经肝脏穿刺活检证实的肝脏少见肿瘤的CT增强表现特征，并对比分析相关的临床表现、实验室检查和手术所见。结果：病理组织学检查证实，本组10例中良性肿瘤3例、恶性肿瘤7例，CT增强扫描显示，5例为囊实性，5例为实质性；8例表现为不均匀强化，2例淋巴瘤无明显强化。CT可较准确地显示肿瘤与肝内血管的毗邻关系以及对肝邻近组织器官的推压与侵犯等，与手术所见一致。临床表现和实验室检查对肝脏少见肿瘤定性诊断价值不大，但有助于与肝细胞癌鉴别。结论：CT增强扫描对肝脏少见肿瘤定性诊断较困难，但结合临床表现与实验室检查仍有助于与肝细胞癌相鉴别；CT增强扫描可准确判断肿瘤的解剖部位及其对邻近组织器官侵犯的情况，从而帮助制定合理、详细的手术方案。

CT Diagnosis of Rare Liver Tumors

Objective To evaluate the role of contrast enhanced CT (CECT) scanning in the diagnosis and treatment planning of some rare liver tumors. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the CECT imaging features of 10 cases with rare tumors of the liver proved by surgical pathology in 8 cases or by liver biopsy in 2 cases, with correlation of relevant clinical manifestations, laboratory results and surgical findings. Results Three cases were histopathologically proved to be benign, and 7 cases were malignant. On CT images, the liver lesions were mixed cystic solid in 5 cases, totally solid in the other 5. Eight cases demonstrated heterogeneous enhancement, while 2 cases of liver lymphoma had no enhancement. The anatomic relationship of tumors to intrahepatic vasculature, the compression and infiltration of neighboring abdominal structures were accurately delineated by CT as compared with findings at operation. Clinical manifestations and laboratory findings were not useful for the qualitative diagnosis of rare liver tumors, except for hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusion CECT is very useful for the detection of rare liver tumors and the fine depiction of local extent of these tumors. When correlated with clinical and laboratory information, it helps to differentiate rare liver tumors from hepatocellular carcinoma. But its role in the characterization of rare liver tumors is limited.
