Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of treating adrenal gland neoplasms by CT-guided absolute alcohol injection. Methods Eleven patients with adrenal gland neoplasms were examined by CT to identify the lesion′s size, location, and the relationship with its surrounding tissue. The needling direction was first chosen, and the syringe needle was placed at the center of tumor or the destined position. Absolute ethyl alcohol was injected after rescanning to confirm the position of syringe needle was inerrant. The blood sugar and blood pressure were checked before operation. After operation, analysis of the clinical manifestations was performed and the blood sugar and blood pressure were measured at once, 24 h, 48 h, one week, one month, and two months, respectively. To observe the absorption of the lesions, postoperative follow-up CT scans were performed at one month and later on. Results Significant differences in blood pressures and blood sugar were observed between preoperation and 24 hours after the operation (P
