The purpose of this pictorial essay is to present and summarize findings of various images of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). CGD represents a heterogeneous group of disorders caused by defective generation of respiratory bursts in human phagocytes. This defect results in abnormal phagocytic functions and defective killing of bacteria by phagocytes. CGD may involve many organs and present with recurrent infections and inflammations. Radiologists should consider the possibility of CGD when a patient presents with atypical and recurrent infection. They must also consider other concurrent infections a patient may have.
这篇图文并茂的文章旨在展示和总结慢性肉芽肿病(CGD)各种影像检查的结果。CGD是一组由人类吞噬细胞呼吸爆发缺陷引起的异质性疾病。这种缺陷导致吞噬功能异常以及吞噬细胞对细菌的杀伤能力缺陷。CGD可累及多个器官,并表现为反复感染和炎症。当患者出现非典型和反复感染时,放射科医生应考虑CGD的可能性。他们还必须考虑患者可能同时存在的其他感染。
