Objective To explore the CT and MRI manifestations and clinical features of juxtaglomerular cell tumor (JGCT). Methods A retrospective analysis the data of eight JGCT patients who resected by surgery and comfirmed by histopathology. Seven cases were examined by CT before operation, five of whom underwent CT scan and dynamic enhanced scan, two of whom underwent CT scan, and all of the eight underwent MRI scan and dynamic enhanced scan. The clinical manifestations of patients were also observed, whether they have hypertension and reduced blood potassium, recorded the results of lying and standing test, and collected the segmental renal vein blood to detect the renin levels. Meanwhile, the CT and MRI manifestations were also recorded. Results (1) We found that all of the eight patients appeared hypertension, and hypokalemia were found among five cases. Seven patients proceeded the lying and standing test, six of whom the plasma renin activity (PRA) were elevate in erect position, and the levels of angiotensin Ⅱand aldosterone (ALD) were rised among all of the seven cases in erect position. Four patients were collected the segmental renal vein blood, and one of whom has positive result of the renin activity. (2) The tumors of all the eight cases were single, the border was clear, and the average size was 2.7 cm (range 1.9 to 3.8 cm). The CT scan results showed there's no calcification or pseudocapsule were detected, four cases showed homogeneous iso-density, one case with slightly high density, another one showed low density with dotty high density and one case with low density. The dynamic enhanced CT scan showed that four cases performed continuous enhancement from cortical to medullary phase, and no obvious enhancement was found in one case. The T2WI results of MRI scan showed six cases had pseudocapsule, 6 cases had heterogeneous signal (4 cases with patchy low signal and 2 cases with patchy high signal), and 2 cases had homogeneous signal (one case with iso-high signal and another with high signal). The T1WI results showed two cases performed low signal, anther two cases showed iso-signal, and four cases with heterogeneous signal. The DWI results showed all of the 8 lesions with homo-or peripheral high signal. The dynamic enhanced MRI scan results showed seven cases performed gradual enhancement, and the border of another case became clear on delay phase. Conclusions JGCT has specific clinical and imaging features, and the combination will help make a correct diagnosis.
