Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relation of the MR manifestations and the pathological characteristics of dissociated discherniation.Methods Characteristics of pathology and MRI of 23 cases of dissociated disc herniation were retrospectively analysed.Results Of 23 cases,the dissociated disc was low signal intensity(compared with spinal cord) on T_1WI and T_2WI with distinct margine in 7 cases,the adhere and inflammation were slight on pathology;iso-or hypo-signal intensity on T_1WI,low signal intensity in the center and slight high signal intensity at periphery on T_2WI with an distinct margine in 13 cases,while the adhere and inflammation were obvious on pathology;on T_1WI slight high signal intensity on T_1WI and iso-intensity on T_2WI in 3 cases,and fibroplasia was showed on patholgy.In the 12 cases with enhanced MRI,the lesions were slight enhancement at periphery and enhancement in the center in 7 cases,no enhancement in 3 cases,slight enhancement in 2 cases.Conclusion MRI signal characteristic can reflect pathologic changes expressly of the dissociated disc herniation.
