To investigate the anogenital distance in patients with and without testicular microlithiasis (TML).
A total of 101 patients underwent a conventional standard clinical B-mode scrotal ultrasonography and scrotal MRI. The patients were divided into two groups: patients with TML and non-TML. The latter served as control group. The anogenital distance was measured by a straight line from center of the anus to the posterior base of scrotum using MRI.
In the TML group, mean AGD was 5.4 (± 1.07) cm (range 29-79 mm), and in non-TML 5.9 (± 1.03) cm (range 35-85 mm) (p = 0.04).
MRI is a useful tool to measure the AGD. It is easy to perform without any discomfort to patients. We found AGD to be lower in patients with TML.
研究有无睾丸微结石症(TML)患者的肛生殖距离。
共101例患者接受了常规标准临床阴囊B型超声检查和阴囊MRI检查。患者被分为两组:TML患者和非TML患者。后者作为对照组。使用MRI通过从肛门中心到阴囊后基部的直线测量肛生殖距离。
在TML组中,平均肛生殖距离为5.4(±1.07)cm(范围29 - 79mm),非TML组为5.9(±1.03)cm(范围35 - 85mm)(p = 0.04)。
MRI是测量肛生殖距离的有用工具。操作简便,患者无任何不适。我们发现TML患者的肛生殖距离较低。
