Abstract:
Objective To evaluate CT characteristics of pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma(PSH) so that to improve the knowledgeof this disease.Methods CT characteristics of PSH pathologically verified were retrospectively analysed.Conventional scan andcontrast-enhanced scan were performed in all the patients.Results 14 lesions were in right lung,while 10 were in left,Diameters of these lesions ranged from 0.8 to 10 cm,and the average diameter was 3.08 cm.3 lesions were located in hilum of lung,while the rest(87.5%)were located in peripheral lung tissue.20 lesions were oval,and 4 were lobulated in morphology.21 lesions were smooth in edge.45.8% of the cases had calcification.All the lesions enhanced obviously on contrast-enhanced scan,and average CT value of(46.62?9.47) HU was increased.The dilated and distorted blood vessels could be detected in 2 large lesions.Conclusion On the basis of general benign tumor features, obvious enhancement and calcification are the characteristics of PSH on CT.
