Diagnostic Ability of Laparoscopic Ultrasonography(LUS) for Urinary System Injury Induced by Laparoscopic Surgery in Animal Experimental Study / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To appraise the diagnostic capability of laparoscopic ultrasonography (LUS) for urinary system injury induced by laparoscopic surgery in goats. Methods Animal models of different types of urinary system injury at different sites were established in five goats. One goat without injury was set as a negative control. LUS was used to examine the animals following randomization and single-blind principles. Results The sensitivity of LUS was 76.9% (10/13),specificity was 100%,and the false-negative rate was 23.1% (3/13). No false-positive results were detected in this study. The sham injury was accurately detected through LUS. The scan time of LUS ranged from 19 to 25 min with a mean of 21 min. Conclusions LUS is of value in the diagnosis of urinary system injury.
