Ultrasonic examination in diagnosis of pelvic lymph node metastasis of endometrial carcinoma of uterus / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical value of ultrasonography in diagnosis and the significance in the pelvic lymph node metastasis in endometrial carcinoma.Methods Endometrial carcinoma admitted for initial treatment of patients with a total of 60 cases,take color Doppler imaging (GE730),the uterine,vaginal examination, accessories and tumor size,internal echo,and the relationship with the surrounding tissue boundaries of tumor four weeks and internal flow characteristics were observed.Results 60 cases of endometrial carcinoma,50 cases of patients with ultrasound findings with operation pathologic examination results,which were positive in 45 cases (75%),8 cases of false negative (13.33%),false positive in 2 cases (3.33%),5 cases were negative (8.33%). The detection sensitivity was 84.91% (45 /53);the rate of missed diagnosis was 15.09% (8 /53);the rate of misdi-agnosis was 28.57% (2 /7);the specificity was 71.43% (5 /7);Youden index 0.5634.Resistance index,CDFI value of carcinoma of endometrium and pelvic lymph node metastasis,there were significant differences (P <0.05). Conclusion Node metastasis in endometrial carcinoma by ultrasonography in diagnosis of pelvic lymph,ultrasonic diagnosis accuracy rate reaches 83.33%,so by ultrasonographic features can be found audio -visual abnormalities in patients,and timely diagnosis of pelvic lymph node metastases in endometrial carcinoma,to lower the risk of blind treatment to the female brought.
