Abstract:
Objective To explore the CT and MR features of duodenal stromal tumors(DST).Methods The clinical,imaging and pathological data of patients with pancreaticoduodenal groove(PDG)mass detected by CT and/or MR,and pathologically diagnosed as DST were retrospectively analyzed.All imaging features were analyzed.Results Finally,all 11 patients were included,all of whom presented external mass in descending duodenum with clear boundary.There were 5 patients with irregular mass and 6 patients with circular mass.Two patients showed homogeneous mass on plain CT and MR imaging,while 9 patients presented heterogeneous mass(with varying degrees of calcification,hemorrhage,cystic degeneration,and necrosis),showed heterogeneous density on CT findings or high,low and iso signals on T1WI and T2WI without high signal on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI),and high enhancement on arterial phase,portal venous phase and delayed phase.There were no signs of air accumulation in all masses.Conclusion Stromal tumors commonly present external heterogeneous mass in descending duodenum with clear boundary.Familiarity with its predilection location and corresponding CT and MR findings are helpful for the qualitative diagnosis of DST.
