Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of color Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosing cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery . Methods The ultrasonographic images of 12 patients with cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery confirmed by surgery and pathology were retrospectivly analyzed . The ultrasonographic features were summarized . Results The ultrasonographic images showed the location ,number ,size and the compression of popliteal artery . Cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery showed cystic masses within popliteal artery wall . The tunica media and tunica externa were separated . Slender separations could be found in some cysts . Color Doppler ultrasonography showed no blood flow inside the cysts . When the popliteal artery was compressed ,the velocity of blood flow increased significantly . The affected popliteal artery diameter was less than that of the contralateral side [ ( 2 .858 ± 1 .256)mm vs (5 .500 ± 0 .095)mm , t ＝7 .531 , P ＜0 .01] ,the peak flow velocity of the affected popliteal artery was higher than that of the contralateral side[(213.750±119.464)cm/svs(57.417±4.209)cm/s, t ＝4 .465 , P ＜0 .01] ,the peak flow velocity of the affected posterior tibial artery was lower than that of the contralateralside[(32.417±14.569)cm/svs(47.250±4.115)cm/s,t ＝4.318,P ＜0.01] .Conclusions Color Doppler ultrasonography is the preferred imaging method for diagnosis of cystic adventitial disease of the popliteal artery .
