Abstract:
Objective To explore the CT imaging features of renal mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma(MTSCC).Methods The CT images of 9 cases patients with renal MTSCC confirmed by pathology were analyzed retrospectively,and their size,shape,density,degree of enhancement and enhancement mode were analyzed.Results There were 6 cases of left renal and 3 cases of right renal,with the largest diameter ranging from 1.6 cm to 7.7 cm.The shape of renal MTSCC was round in 4 cases,oblong in 3 cases,and fan-shaped in 2 cases.The long axis of the oblong tumor was parallel to the renal column,the central angle of the fan-shaped tumor was located in the renal medulla,and the arc was located under the renal capsule.Renal MTSCC was mainly located in the renal medulla.There were 6 cases of complete endophytic tumors,5 of which compressed the renal sinus.The tumor density was uniform in 5 cases,and the CT value of the solid component of the tumor was(32.43±4.82)HU,and the difference was not statistically significant compared with that of the renal parenchymal density(P=0.859).After enhancement,the solid component of the tumor showed mild uniform enhancement in the cortical phase,with a CT value of(41.71±6.74)HU.In the parenchymal phase and excretory phase,there was progressive enhancement,and the CT values were(58.23±9.42)HU and(61.81±9.49)HU,respectively.The CT value of each phase of tumor after enhancement was lower than that of renal medulla in the same period,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P=0.001,P=0.005,P=0.002).Conclusion Renal MTSCC is mainly located in the renal medulla,which is easy to compress the renal sinus.It can be oblong or fan-shaped.Cystic,necrosis and calcification are rare.After enhancement,the tumor shows mild uniform enhancement in the cortical phase,progressive enhancement in the parenchymal phase and the excretory phase,and the CT value of each phase are lower than that of the renal medulla in the same period,which can suggest the diagnosis.
