Abstract:
Objective To analyze MRI features of breast intraductal papilloma,to improve the acquaintance of this disease.Methods The preoperative MRI images (T2 WI-SPAIR,DWI,ADC,TIC and MIP)of eight patients with breast intraductal papilloma confirmed by surgery were reviewed retrospectively,which were compared with the postoperative pathology.The morphology,distribution, enhanced methods and signal characteristics of the lesion were summarized.Results Of 8 cases,the lession was dormant,and MRI revealed three patterns:the first type was occult papilloma,which presented distention of ducts and no solid nodule in 3 cases (37.5%);the second type showed tiny nodules in bar-like dilatation of ducts in 3 cases (37.5%);and the third type presented small round nodules scattering distribued in terminal ductules in 2 cases (25%).The maximum diameter of nodular lesions was 0.4-1.0 cm(average 0.7 cm).The lesions on T2 WI-SPAIR showed equal signal intensity or mixed signals with isointensity/hypointensity,and dilatation catheter.enhancement. The ADC and TIC value were various,therefore,diagnosis of the tumor should be combined with morphology and associated symptoms. Conclusion At early stage,the occult focus of breast intraductal papilloma can be sensitively detected and localized on MRI.It reveals that MRI has advantage in showing morphology of lesion and functional imaging,which is of important value in clinical diagnosis and early treatment.
