ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) in diagnosis of vascular rings associated airway abnormalities in children. Methods CT image data were retrospective analysis in 159 cases of vascular rings, including multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), maximum and minimum density project reconstructions. The relationship between the vascular rings and airway had been observed. Results Of 159 cases of vascular rings as-sociated with airway stenosis in 101 cases, the main airway stenosis in 79 cases, left main bronchial stenosis in 14 cas-es, right main bronchus in 8 cases, tracheal bridge in 14 cases, tracheal bronchial in 11 cases, symmetry bronchial in 2 cases. Conclusions Vascular ring often causes compression of airway narrow and dysplasia. MSCT can clearly display vascular rings and its relationship with airway, providing help for surgical and reasonable treatment.
