ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the ultrasonographic performance of infantile hepatic hemangioendothelioma(IHHE).Methods Clinical and ultrasonographic findings in 14 cases with IHHE were reviewed retrospectively,and compared with CT and MR.Results Among 14 cases,there were 6 cases with single mass,5 cases with multiple masses and 3 cases with diffuse masses.Ultrasonography displayed single mass and multiple masses with clear boundary,heterogeneous inner echo,calcification was detected in 4 cases and anechoic areas were detected in 6 cases.Diffuse masses were small,ill-defined,the echogenicity of the whole liver was extremely disorder.The hepatic artery and the proximal abdominal aortic dilatation was found in 4 cases,and the abdominal aorta which below the coeliac artery became relatively thinner in these cases.Color Doppler showed rich blood supply and intratumoral vasodilation in 8 cases,PW detection of intratumoral arteriovenous fistula in 4 cases.Conclusions Ultrasonography findings of IHHE have some characteristic feature.
