Abstract:
Objective To investigate the contrast-enhanced ultrasonography appearances characteristics of intrahepatic peripheral cholangiocarcinoma( ICC) and to improve the diagnosis level of ICC on contrast-enhanced ultrasonography . Methods Thirty cases with ICC confirmed by pathological examinations of surgeries were retrospectively analyzed for findings of ultrasonography , clinic and pathology ,to explore the typical contrast-enhanced ultrasonography appearances and the correlation with pathological differentiation . ResultsOn contrast-enhanced ultrasonography , 30 lesions showed enhancement on the arterial phase and appeared hypo-echoic enhancement on the portal phase ,which displayed fast-in and fast-out" enhancement pattern . During the hepatic arterial phase of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography ,10 lesions showed peripheral enhancement ,10 lesions showed relatively homogeneous hyper-enhancement ,6 lesions showed heterogeneous enhancement ,2 lesions showed iso-enhancement ,and 2 lesions showed hypo-enhancement . To the 30 lesions ,the average initial time of enhancement was ( 18 .81 ± 4 .66)s (12 －28 s) ,the average time of washing-out was (36 .00 ± 12 .30) s (18 －60 s) . There was no significant difference in time of washing-in and washing-out among different pathological differentiation groups ( P＞0 .05) . Conclusions ICC often shows fast-in and fast-out" enhancement pattern on contrast-enhanced ultrasonography ,and the time of washing-out is generally in late arterial phase or early portal phase ,but there is no significant difference in time of washing-in and washing-out among different pathological differentiation groups .
