Abstract:
Objective MRI manifestations of infiltrative renal pelvis carcinoma were analyzed and evaluated,to improve its diagnostic accuracy. Methods MRI features of 21 cases of infiltrative renal pelvis carcinoma confirmed pathologically were analyzed retrospectively.All patients underwent plain MRI scan and DWI examination,3 cases underwent PWI examination.Results The center of lesions for all cases were located in the renal collection system,with no change of the renal contour.Most lesions were presented as low signal intensity on T1 WI and slightly low signal intensity on T2 WI,and heterogeneous signal intensity were showed on T1 WI and T2 WI in 5 cases.All lesions were presented as high signal intensity on DWI.After contrast enhancement,mild and moderate enhanced lesions were demonstrated in 3 cases.Renal arteries were wrapped by renal pelvis carcinoma on renal AMRA in 3 cases.4 patients were accompanied with venous tumor thrombus and 1 1 patients with retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis.Adrenal gland metastases were showed in 3 cases.1 case was accompanied with ureter urothelial carcinoma,and 2 cases with bladder carcinomas.Conclusion MRI has a multi-parameter imaging capability and high resolution of soft tissue,and can clearly show the boundary of lesions and surroundings.MRI plays an important role in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of infiltrative renal pelvis carcinoma.
