Abstract:
Objective To explore the ultrasonographic features of the gallbladder with malaria in stage of attack (MSA) at Sudan.Methods A total of 67 cases of MSA patients were divided into common type of malaria (CM) and sever malaria (SM).All patients underwent routine abdominal ultrasound examination and the ultrasonographic features of the gallbladder were divided into type Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ according to the volume of gallbladder,thickness of the gallbladder wall and chole stasis.The relationship between clinical types and the ultrasonic types were analyzed.Then the differences of liver function among normal,Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ types were compared statistically.Results In all of the 67 MSA patients,52 cases were CM and 15 cases were SM.The gallbladder ultrasonography showed that normal gallbladder were in 14 cases,type Ⅰ in 28 ca ses,type Ⅱ in 19 cases,type Ⅲ in 6 cases.The ultrasonic types of the gallbladder had significant difference in SM patients (type Ⅰ 3 cases,type Ⅱ 7 cases,type lⅢ 5 cases) and CM patients (normal 14 cases,type Ⅰ 25 cases,type Ⅱ 12 cases,type Ⅲ 1 case;P＜0.001).Ultrasonic types of the gallbladder had no difference between Chinese and Sudanese (P＞ 0.05).There were statistical significant differences of liver function among normal,Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ types of the gallbladder (P＜0.001).Conclusion Most of the MSA patients have ultrasonic changes of gallbladder.And there are more serious pathological changes of gallbladder in SM than that in CM.
