[Complex ultrasonic diagnosis of large and gigantic non-parasitic cysts of liver].

The results of clinical and complex ultrasonic examination of 95 patients with large and gigantic liver non-parasitic cysts (LNC) are analyzed. The morphological examination was performed in all the cases. The mean diameter of large LNC was 105+/-7 mm, of gigantic cysts -- 149+/-33 mm (p<0,05), cyst volume was respectively 600+/-142 and 1721+/-954 ml (p<0,05). Analysis of clinical, ultrasonic and laboratory data allowed to describe three variants of large and gigantic, complicated and non-complicated cysts with 97,9% accuracy. The 3-D US reconstruction permitted to precise the anatomic structure and trace selection during transcutaneous US-assisted treatment.
