Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the application value of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination in clinical diagnosis of gallbladder tumor with perigallbladder invasion.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 80 gallbladder tumor patients with perigallbladder invasion who were admitted to 3 medical centers (21 cases in The First Affiliated Hospital of Northwest University, 42 cases in The First Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University, 17 cases in The First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University) from January 2021 to December 2022 were collec-ted. There were 45 males and 35 females, aged (56±4)years. Observation indicators: (1) CT and MRI examinations; (2) surgical conditions. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) CT and MRI examinations. Of 80 patients, cases with gallbladder cancer and gallbladder adenoma were 73 and 7, respectively. Cases with endoluminal nodular type, mass type and localized thick-walled type were 33, 39 and 8, respectively, with tumor diameter as 1.55 cm×1.35 cm×1.33 cm, 1.64 cm×1.37 cm×1.36 cm and 5.72 cm×4.07 cm×4.36 cm. Results of CT examination of endoluminal nodular type showed local nodular protrusions into the endoluminal area, and local enhancement on enhanced scanning. Results of CT examination of localized thick-walled type showed the cavity wall of lesion was locally or diffusely irregul-arly thickened, with a thickness of 1.10(range, 1.10-2.21)cm. Of 80 patients, results of CT and MRI examinations showed invasion of liver parenchyma in 68 cases, which was manifested as local mass, blurred demarcation, and abnormal protrusion. The maximum depth was (4.22±0.25)cm, (4.22±0.22)cm, (4.28±0.16)cm of cross-sectional, coronal, sagittal view in CT examination, respectively. The minimum depth was (0.22±0.10)cm, (0.25±0.08)cm, (0.24±0.12)cm. The depth of liver parenchyma invaded was (1.64±1.38)cm, (1.68±1.46)cm, (1.66±1.40)cm. Results of CT and MRI examinations showed invasion of perigallbladder, which was manifested as local invasion of the gastric antrum in 12 cases. (2) Surgical conditions. Of 80 patients, results of CT and MRI examina-tions showed that 60 patients had localized masses in the gallbladder cavity with or without infiltration of surrounding tissues. After confirming the absence of other organs and distant metastasis, cases undergoing radical resection and palliative resection were 44 and 16, respectively. Results of CT and MRI examina-tions showed that 20 patients had malignant gallbladder tumors with peri-pheral liver infiltration and multiple intrahepatic metastases with distant organ metastases, which were unresectable.Conclusion:For patients with gallbladder cancer and perigallbladder invasion, CT or MRI examina-tions can show their structural characteristics.
