To evaluate the imaging characteristics of central neurocytoma (CN) with different Ki-67 indices and reveal its biological behavior.
Sixty-nine cases of intraventricular CN confirmed by histopathology were collected retrospectively. According to Ki-67 indices, they were divided into CNs with high Ki-67 (30 cases) and CNs with low Ki-67 (39 cases). Their clinical and imaging findings were compared and analyzed.
Compared to CNs with low Ki-67, CNs with high Ki-67 were larger (P < 0.001) and more solid (P = 0.019). Restricted diffusion (P = 0.020), CT hyperdensity (P < 0.001), abnormal vessels (P = 0.018), and marked MRI enhancement (P < 0.001) were more common in CNs with high Ki-67.
Different Ki-67 indices could affect the imaging characteristics of CNs. Tumor size, radiologic solidity, abnormal vessels, and marked MRI enhancement suggested CNs with high Ki-67. Combining these imaging characteristics and Ki-67 indices offered meaningful insights into their clinical diagnosis and biological behavior.
评估不同Ki-67指数的中枢神经细胞瘤(CN)的影像学特征,并揭示其生物学行为。
回顾性收集69例经组织病理学确诊的脑室内CN病例。根据Ki-67指数,将其分为高Ki-67指数的CN(30例)和低Ki-67指数的CN(39例)。比较并分析它们的临床和影像学表现。
与低Ki-67指数的CN相比,高Ki-67指数的CN体积更大(P < 0.001)且实性成分更多(P = 0.019)。高Ki-67指数的CN中,扩散受限(P = 0.020)、CT高密度(P < 0.001)、异常血管(P = 0.018)及MRI明显强化(P < 0.001)更为常见。
不同的Ki-67指数可影响CN的影像学特征。肿瘤大小、放射学实性、异常血管及MRI明显强化提示为高Ki-67指数的CN。结合这些影像学特征和Ki-67指数有助于深入了解其临床诊断及生物学行为。
