The value of contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS) for diagnosis of portal vein invasion in patients with pancreatic cancer was evaluated.
This single-center, retrospective study included consecutive patients with pancreatic cancer who underwent both surgical resection after preoperative EUS, CH-EUS, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CE-CT) examinations between April 2015 and August 2017. CH-EUS evaluation was performed during the late phase. Portal vein invasion on EUS and CH-EUS was defined as no continuity in the line of the vessel wall. Definition of portal vein invasion on CE-CT was based on the Loyer's criteria. The accuracy of three modalities for diagnosis of invasion into the portal vein was compared using the McNemar's test.
Eighty-eight patients (mean age: 71.0 years, ratio of male to female: 48:40) were eligible. Postoperative pathological results were as follows: seven cases of portal vein invasion; 81 cases without. Diagnostic accuracy of EUS, CH-EUS, and CE-CT for diagnosing invasion into the portal vein was 72.7%, 93.2%, and 81.8%, respectively. The differences between CH-EUS and CE-CT (P = 0.0094) and CH-EUS and EUS (P = 0.0022) were significant. EUS and CE-CT were comparable.
CH-EUS is useful for diagnosis of portal vein invasion by pancreatic cancer.
评估对比增强谐波内镜超声(CH-EUS)对胰腺癌患者门静脉侵犯的诊断价值。
这项单中心回顾性研究纳入了2015年4月至2017年8月期间连续接受术前超声内镜(EUS)、CH-EUS及对比增强计算机断层扫描(CE-CT)检查后行手术切除的胰腺癌患者。CH-EUS评估在晚期进行。EUS和CH-EUS上的门静脉侵犯定义为血管壁线的连续性中断。CE-CT上门静脉侵犯的定义基于洛耶标准。采用McNemar检验比较三种检查方式对门静脉侵犯诊断的准确性。
88例患者(平均年龄:71.0岁,男女比例:48:40)符合条件。术后病理结果如下:7例门静脉侵犯;81例无侵犯。EUS、CH-EUS和CE-CT对门静脉侵犯诊断的准确率分别为72.7%、93.2%和81.8%。CH-EUS与CE-CT(P = 0.0094)以及CH-EUS与EUS(P = 0.0022)之间的差异具有统计学意义。EUS和CE-CT相当。
CH-EUS对胰腺癌门静脉侵犯的诊断有帮助。
