The objective of this study was to evaluate pretransplant sinus computed tomography (CT) as predictor of post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant sinusitis.
We evaluated pretransplant and posttransplant CT findings in 100 children using the Lund-Mackay system and "common-practice" radiology reporting and correlated these with the presence of acute sinusitis.
Fourteen percent of patients with normal screening CT developed posttransplant sinusitis, compared with 23% with radiographic abnormalities and 22% with clinical sinusitis alone, not statistically significant. Sensitivity of CT findings for clinical sinusitis ranged between 19% and 56%. Except for mucosal thickening (71% specificity), other findings had high specificity between 92% and 97%, particularly when combined. Lund-Mackay score change of 10 or greater from baseline was associated with a 2.8-fold increased likelihood of having sinusitis (P < 0.001).
Screening CT can serve as a baseline, with a Lund-Mackay score change of 10 or greater constituting a significant threshold. The strongest correlation with the presence of acute sinusitis was seen with combined CT findings.
本研究的目的是评估造血干细胞移植前鼻窦计算机断层扫描(CT)作为移植后鼻窦炎预测指标的价值。
我们使用Lund-Mackay系统和“常规”放射学报告评估了100名儿童移植前和移植后的CT表现,并将这些表现与急性鼻窦炎的存在情况进行关联。
筛查CT正常的患者中有14%发生了移植后鼻窦炎,相比之下,影像学异常患者为23%,仅临床诊断为鼻窦炎的患者为22%,差异无统计学意义。CT表现对临床鼻窦炎的敏感性在19%至56%之间。除黏膜增厚(特异性为71%)外,其他表现的特异性较高,在92%至97%之间,尤其是联合出现时。Lund-Mackay评分较基线升高10分或更多与患鼻窦炎的可能性增加2.8倍相关(P < 0.001)。
筛查CT可作为基线,Lund-Mackay评分变化10分或更多构成显著阈值。联合CT表现与急性鼻窦炎的存在相关性最强。
