To determine the diagnostic value of preoperative levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and E-selectin in patients with an adnexal mass who had surgery for ovarian torsion.
Prospective study.
University hospital.
PATIENT(S): Fifty consecutive women with adnexal mass who were admitted with a diagnosis of ovarian torsion.
INTERVENTION(S): All had a single preoperative measurement of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, and E-selectin by ELISA.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): To determine if a single preoperative serum sampling of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, and E-selectin by ELISA can diagnose ovarian torsion.
RESULT(S): Thirteen patients had proven torsion of the ovary. Serum levels of IL-6 were significantly higher in the 13 patients with proven ovarian torsion compared with the 37 without ovarian torsion. Patients with IL-6 serum values > or =10.2 pg/mL had a 16 times higher risk of having ovarian torsion. No significant difference was found in TNF-alpha, IL-8, and E-selectin between the two groups.
CONCLUSION(S): The IL-6 levels might assist in the prompt diagnosis of ovarian torsion and allow a timely surgical intervention.
确定术前白细胞介素-6(IL-6)、肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)、白细胞介素-8(IL-8)和E-选择素水平对附件包块且因卵巢扭转接受手术患者的诊断价值。
前瞻性研究。
大学医院。
连续50例诊断为卵巢扭转且伴有附件包块的女性。
所有患者术前均通过酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)对IL-6、IL-8、TNF-α和E-选择素进行单次检测。
通过ELISA对IL-6、IL-8、TNF-α和E-选择素进行单次术前血清采样能否诊断卵巢扭转。
13例患者经证实存在卵巢扭转。与37例无卵巢扭转的患者相比,13例经证实存在卵巢扭转的患者血清IL-6水平显著更高。IL-6血清值≥10.2 pg/mL的患者发生卵巢扭转的风险高16倍。两组之间TNF-α、IL-8和E-选择素无显著差异。
IL-6水平可能有助于卵巢扭转的快速诊断并实现及时的手术干预。
