A 26-year-old woman presented with urinary frequency. Findings were negative on voiding cystourethrography. Cystourethroscopy failed to reveal a urethral diverticulum. A new method of virtual CT urethroscopy was performed using a 16-MDCT scanner. The orifice of the diverticulum was identified clearly on 3D virtual urethroscopy. Intraoperatively, the diverticulum was identified, with the orifice location compatible with that seen on virtual urethroscopy.
Virtual CT urethroscopy provides more information than conventional urethral examinations and is less invasive than conventional urethroscopy.
一名26岁女性出现尿频症状。排尿性膀胱尿道造影检查结果为阴性。膀胱尿道镜检查未发现尿道憩室。使用16层螺旋CT扫描仪进行了一种新的虚拟CT尿道镜检查方法。在三维虚拟尿道镜检查中清晰地识别出了憩室口。术中发现了憩室,其开口位置与虚拟尿道镜检查所见相符。
虚拟CT尿道镜检查比传统尿道检查提供更多信息,且比传统尿道镜检查侵入性更小。
