ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the enhanced CT features of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC)and its subtypes (PRCC-Ⅰ, PRCC-Ⅱ)and chromophobe renal cell carcinoma(CRCC).Methods The CT features of 30 tumors with pathologically proved PRCC and CRCC were analyzed retrospectively,including location,size,enhanced types,calcification and necrosis etc.The differences in the CT features among PRCC and its subtypes and CRCC were evaluated.Results 1 2 cases of PRCC with single lesion (7 in the right kidney and 5 in the left)were shown;1 case was multifocal PRCC with 1 lesion in the right kidney and 2 lesions in the left.1 5 cases of CRCC were single lesion(9 in the right kidney and 6 in the left).The medium tumor maximum size of CRCC was larger than that of PRCC,and the PRCC-Ⅰ tumors tended to be smaller than PRCC-Ⅱ ones.53% of the PRCC had heterogeneous enhancement,and all calcification and necrosis were found in PRCC-Ⅱ lesions.Of all the CRCC,27% had uniform enhancement,20% had calcification and 40% had necrosis or central scar.There was no significant difference between PRCC and its subtypes and CRCC in location, maximum size,heterogeneity,calcification,necrosis and central scar.The degree of enhancement of CRCC(89.53 HU)was significantly greater than that of PRCC(66.60 HU),PRCC-Ⅰ(71.75 HU)and PRCC-Ⅱ(64.73 HU)in the cortical phase(P<0.05).The enhancement peak in the nephrographic phase was CRCC,PRCC-Ⅰ,PRCC and PRCC-Ⅱ from high to low in turn,which were all higher than that in cortical phase.In the excretory phase,the enhancement of all lesions was declined.Conclusion Contrast-enhanced CT is of certain value in the differential diagnosis among PRCC and its subtypes and CRCC.The enhancement degree of CRCC in the cortical phase is significantly greater than that of PRCC and its subtypes.The enhancement peak of PRCC and its subtypes and CRCC appears in the nephrographic phase.
