Abstract:
Objective To explore CT manifestion of multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC)and to improve the recognization of MPLC.Methods The CT manifestions of 12 cases with MPLC proved by pathology were retrospectively reviewed.Results All the 12 cases were double primary lung cancer.There were 24 lesions with 21 peripheral and 3 central,the average diameter was (2.2 ± 0.6)cm.Lesions located in contralateral lobes were in 2 patients,and located in ipsilateral lobes were in 10 patients,with 3 located in the same lobe and 7 in the different lobes.There were 7 cases of adenocarcinoma-adenocarcinoma,3 cases of squamous cell carci-noma-adenocarcinoma,1 case of squamous cell carcinoma-squamous cell carcinoma and 1 case of squamous cell carcinoma-carcinoid. 1 1 cases were metachronous and 1 case was synchronous.3 lesions were lump located at hilus of the lung,21 lesions were intrapul-monary nodules,showing masses with lobulated shape,spicules of margin,vascular convergence,vacuole and pleural indentation sign.Most foci displayed moderate intensity enhancement and homogeneous density in triphase enhanced scans,the CT value of le-sions on enhanced images ranged from 20-60 HU.Conclusion MPLC are synchronous and peripheral adenocarcinoma type,all of the lesions have typical CT features of primary lung cancer.
