Orbital cavernous hemangioma is the most common primary tumor in the orbit. With the development of histopathology, it has been confirmed that cavernous hemangioma is not a real tumor, but a special type of vascular malformation. Cavernous hemangioma malformation(CVM) is a more appropriate way to name it. At present, surgical resection is the main treatment for CVMs. The prognosis of the surgery mainly depends on the location and the size of the lesion as well as its relationship with the optic nerve. Therefore, effective imaging information is of great importance. This paper analyzes the radiological imaging characteristics and the advantages and disadvantages between them, including ultrasound, CT, MRI, and SPECT/CT imaging of CVMs, hoping to help improve our understanding of CVMs.
眼眶海绵状血管瘤是眼眶最常见的原发性肿瘤。随着组织病理学的发展,已证实海绵状血管瘤并非真正的肿瘤,而是一种特殊类型的血管畸形。海绵状血管畸形(CVM)是更合适的命名方式。目前,手术切除是CVM的主要治疗方法。手术预后主要取决于病变的位置、大小及其与视神经的关系。因此,有效的影像学信息至关重要。本文分析了CVM的放射影像学特征及其优缺点,包括超声、CT、MRI和SPECT/CT成像,希望有助于提高我们对CVM的认识。
