Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of MRI in diagnosis of congenital cystic lung disease.Methods The MRI was per-formed in 105 fetuses with congenital cystic lung disease.Subjects were classified into two groups including group A (the gestational age ranged from 12-20 w)and group B (the gestational age>20 w).The MRI and ultrasonography characteristics,as well as path-ologic diagnosis were compared.Results Among 105 cases,there were 80 cases of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM)(including 23 cases of typeⅠ,38 cases of typeⅡ and 1 9 cases of typeⅢ),18 cases of bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS),5 cases of congenital lobar emphysema,1 case of bronchogenic cyst,and 1 case was BPS with CCAM.In group A,MRI can diagnose the majority of the anomalies (41/45),ultrasonography can diagnose anomalies of 39 cases.There was no significant differ-ence of diagnostic accuracy between the two methods (P >0.05).In group B,compared with ultrasonography,MRI could diagnose more cases accurately (58 vs 52),with statistical significance (P <0.05).Conclusion MRI is a reliable method in diagnosing con-genital cystic lung disease;MRI can provide more useful information for the cases in the gestational age >20 w compared with ultra-sonography.
