Colour Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Left Renal Vein Entrapment Syndrome / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Purpose To discuss the main index of the colour ultrasonographic diagnosis of children's left Renal Vein Entrapment Sydrome(LRVES).Methods By colour ultrasonography,urine microscope examination and urine Ca/Cr ratio determination,eighty-two LRVES children were diagnosed and compared with forty healthy children.Observed at supine position whether narrow caused by pressure or the expanding phenomenon of LRV after being pressed,to examine the ratio of the abdominal aorta(AO) left internal diameter(a) to the front internal diameter(b) of LRV,by using CDFI,blood flow rate in the left lateral position of LRV was judged.Simultaneously,the angle(?) between superio mesentery artery(SMA) and AO was detected.Then standing upright for twenty minutes,and determined a/b ratio.Results In the LRVES group,the LRV blood vessels become narrower,a/b was over 3 at supine position,after standing upright for twenty minutes,a/b was over 4;and LRV blood flow rate becomes slower,? angle becomes smaller,compared with the healthy group,there was statistical significance.Conclusions The main indexes of the LRVES of ultrasonographic diagnosis is to observe the a/b ratio of LRV before and after being pressed (lying on the back and standing upright for twenty minutes) and to detecte the blood flow rate of LRV before pressure and judege the angle between SMA and AO.
