目的

评估淋巴超声造影(LCEUS)联合静脉超声造影(IVCEUS)诊断甲状腺乳头状癌(PTC)颈部淋巴结转移(CLNM)的价值。

方法

回顾性选取2019年11月至2021年6月在中日友好医院经穿刺病理证实为PTC的患者47例。所有患者均进行常规超声、LCEUS和IVCEUS评估颈部淋巴结,且超声造影后均行颈部淋巴结穿刺活检明确病理。分析比较正常淋巴结与CLNM的超声及超声造影特征。以病理结果为金标准,绘制ROC曲线,对常规超声、LCEUS、IVCEUS及LCEUS联合IVCEUS诊断CLNM的效能进行比较。

结果

47例PTC患者共76枚淋巴结纳入研究。所有观察淋巴结中,穿刺病理证实59枚为CLNM,17枚为正常淋巴结。LCEUS时,CLNM中94.6%(56/59)内有灌注缺损区,71.2%(42/59)内有亮环中断;与正常淋巴结比较,差异均有统计学意义(P均<0.001)。IVCEUS时,CLNM中61.0%(36/59)呈向心性强化,57.6%(34/59)为不均匀强化;与正常淋巴结比较,差异均有统计学意义(P=0.001、<0.001)。LCEUS联合IVCEUS对CLNM的诊断准确性为92.1%,高于LCEUS(86.8%)、IVCEUS(76.3%)及常规超声(64.5%);二者联合的ROC曲线下面积为0.865,高于IVCEUS(0.764,P=0.044)及常规超声(0.553,P=0.0005)。

结论

LCEUS联合IVCEUS对PTC合并CLNM具有较高的诊断价值。

Objective

To assess the value of the combination of lymphatic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (LCEUS) and intravenous contrast-enhanced ultrasound (IVCEUS) in the diagnosis of cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) from papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).

Methods

From November 2019 to June 2021, 47 patients with PTC confirmed by puncture pathology at China-Japan Friendship Hospital were selected. All patients underwent routine US, LCEUS, and IVCEUS examinations. The accuracy of routine US, LCEUS, IVCEUS, and LCEUS combined IVCEUS in the diagnosis of CLNM was compared using pathological results as the gold standard.

Results

Perfusion defects (94.6%, 56/59) and interruption of the bright ring (71.2%, 42/59) were the two typical LCEUS signs for diagnosing CLNM. On IVCEUS, CLNM appeared as centripetal perfusion (61%, 36/59) and heterogeneous hyper-enhancement (57.6%, 34/59). The diagnostic accuracy of the combination of LCEUS and IVCEUS in CLNM was 92.1%, which was higher than those of LCEUS (86.8%), IVCEUS (76.3%), and routine US (64.5%). The area under the ROC curve for the combination of LCEUS and IVCEUS was 0.865, which was higher than those of IVCEUS (0.764, P=0.044) and routine US (0.553, P=0.0005).

Conclusion

The combination of LCEUS and IVCEUS has promising diagnostic value for CLNM from PTC.
