Objective To investigate the MRI features of hepatic IgG4?related inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT). Methods Nine patients with 11 histopathologically proven IgG4?related hepatic IPTs were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical, morphological and MRI signal features on T1WI, T2WI, dynamic?enhanced, and diffusion?weighted imaging were assessed in detail and correlated with pathological findings. The paired t test was used to compare the ADC values of the tumors and the hepatic tissue. Results Hepatic IgG4?related IPT displayed certain MRI features. The dominant lesions were subcapsularly distributed (n=7) with a clear boundary (n=8), which typically showed hypointensity on T1WI (n=11), mild hyperintensity on T2WI (n=8), progressive (n=5) or persistent (n=4) enhancement pattern. Accompanied signs included delayed capsule?like enhancement (n=6) and central nonenhanced areas (n=7). Two lesions showed atypical wash?out pattern with iso or hypointensity on portal and delayed phases. In diffusion weighted imaging, all lesions were hyperintense, and the mean ADC value of the lesions [(1.42 ± 0.36) × 10?3mm2/s] was mildly lower than that of surrounding liver [(1.55±0.31)×10?3mm2/s], although no statistical differences were found(t=0.78, P=0.46). Conclusions Hepatic IgG4?related IPTs display various MRI manifestations. The lesions normally show progressive enhancement pattern with diffuse homogeneous or heterogeneous hyperintensity, accompanied by delayed capsule?like enhancement and central nonenhanced areas.

Objective To investigate the correlation between pathogens and spectrum of disease in infants with human cytomegalovirus(HCMV) active infection.Methods A total of 378 cases of HCMV infection diagnosed by the identification of HCMV IgM or PP65 antigen of HCMV.HCMV gB genotyping was carried out by nested PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP) in 107 cases.The results of pathogen,spectrum of disease and clinic feature were analyzed.Results In all 378 infant patients with HCMV,27.78% were systemic infection and 72.22% involved just single organ.Hepatitis,HCMV inclusion disease,thrombocytopenic purpura,pneumonia were pre- dominant with 33.07%,27.78%,13.49%,6.35% respectively.The rate of HCMV inclusion dis ease in infants younger than 2 weeks was higher than in those aged from 3 12 weeks(P ~ 0.05) and children older than 12 weeks(P<0.01).Infants with higher rate of PP65 antigen positive cells were apt to systemic infection than those with lower rate of PP65 positive cells(P<0.01).Infants,who were positive by detections of all three methods,were apt to systemic infection than others(P<0.01). Moreover,infants positive of IgM and PP65 antigen were apt to systemic infection than those just positive by one of the two methods(P<0.01).The result of gB genotype analysis in 107 cases showed 53 cases of gBⅠ,20 of gBⅡ.18 of gBⅢ.7 of gBⅠ+gBⅡ,5 of gBⅠ+gBⅢand 4 of gBⅡ+gBⅢ,and gBⅣwas not found.Conclusion HCMV could infect multiple organs and have some different clinic features.Combination of different methods can increase the sensitivity to detect the pathogen.The gBⅠgenotype is most prevalent in these infants.

Objective To compare the MR features of small hepatocellular carcinoma (sHCC) and small intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (sIMCC) (≤ 3 cm) and improve the accuracy in diagnosis.Methods Imaging studies of 318 patients with 351 sHCCs and 42 patients with 47 sIMCCs were retrospectively reviewed.Signal intensity on T2WI and on each phase of dynamic enhanced imaging,enhancement patterns,and accompanying findings of the two groups were compared by qualitative and quantitative studies.The qualitative imaging features of tumors were compared by the x2 test and the Fisher exact test,and the statistically significant variables obtained from univariate analysis were used to conduct multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis.Enhancement pattern between sHCCs with elevated AFP and normal AFP were assessed by thex2 test.Results Multivariate analysis indicated that signal features of enhancement pattern and the accompanying findings of tumor capsule and hepatic capsule retraction were key predictors in differentiating sHCC from sIMCC:Wash-out pattern (276/351) with enhanced tumor capsule (275/351) highly indicated sHCC,while progressive enhancement pattern (27/47) with hepatic capsule retraction (8/47) indicated the diagnosis of sIMCC (P < 0.01).Compared with sHCC with normal AFP,atypical patterns as progressive (n =4) and stable enhancement (n =32) were more commonIy seen in lesions with elevated AFP,dynamic enhancement pattern was different between the two subgroups (x2 =8.241,P < 0.05).Conclusions Enhancement patterns and the accompanying tumor capsule and hepatic capsule retraction were the most important predictors in differentiating sHCC from sIMCC.In addition,enhancement pattern was relatively more typical in sHCCs with normal AFP which provided valuable information in diagnosis for clinicians.
