Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of intraoperative ultrasound in the resection of hemangioblastoma.Methods Intraoperative ultrasound was applied in 17 patients who underwent resection. The size,number,location ,depth,feeding arteries and draining veins of the tumors were clearly displayed.Results Intraoperative ultrasound could real-time locate the tumor with high accuracy. Totally there were 35 tumors in 17 patients, and intraoperative ultrasound found 32 of them.The diameter of thr smallest tumor was 7 mm. Intraoperative ultrasound could displayed clearly the feeding arteries and draining veins in bigger tumors. Conclusions Intraoperative ultrasound should be routinely used in the operation of hemangioblastoma for its high detection rate.
