Over a 26 month period, 34 patients with histologically proven ovarian malignancy were studied by computed tomography (CT). In nine patients, CT was obtained for evaluation of a pelvic or abdominal mass. Computed tomography was diagnostic of ovarian malignancy in seven and indeterminate regarding the origin of the tumor in two patients. Ten patients were evaluated by CT in order to rule out recurrent ovarian neoplasm. Disease free intervals prior to CT ranged from 6 to 36 months with an average of 18 months. In eight surgically proven cases, CT was true positive for recurrent tumor in six patients, true negative in one, and false positive in one. In 20 patients, serial CT examinations were valuable in the objective assessment of measurable tumor response following chemotherapy and radiation therapy. A major limitation of CT was its inability to detect peritoneal and liver surface implants smaller than 2 cm in size.
在26个月的时间里,对34例经组织学证实为卵巢恶性肿瘤的患者进行了计算机断层扫描(CT)研究。9例患者因盆腔或腹部肿块接受CT检查以进行评估。CT诊断出7例卵巢恶性肿瘤,2例肿瘤起源不明。10例患者接受CT检查以排除复发性卵巢肿瘤。CT检查前的无病间期为6至36个月,平均为18个月。在8例经手术证实的病例中,CT对6例复发性肿瘤诊断为真阳性,1例为真阴性,1例为假阳性。在20例患者中,系列CT检查对客观评估化疗和放疗后可测量的肿瘤反应很有价值。CT的一个主要局限性是无法检测到直径小于2厘米的腹膜和肝表面转移灶。
