The authors demonstrate the interest of the association among echography, angiography and angiotomography in the diagnosis of the primitive or secondary expansive formation of the liver. The casuistry is based on 22 multiple metastases of the liver, 5 primitive tumours, 3 hepatic echinococcus, 1 abscess of the left lobe, 1 renal tumour and 1 retroperitoneal neuroblastoma with secondary hepatic localizations. The analysis of the comparison of the results among the various methods employed has shown that the identification of the lesion is (resolvable) by echography; the study of the intrahepatic vessels compromise pertains to angiography; echography, even giving significant help in judging about a possible engagement of the vena cava, necessarily needs cavography.
作者展示了超声检查、血管造影和血管断层摄影联合使用在诊断肝脏原发性或继发性扩张性病变中的作用。病例包括22例肝脏多发转移瘤、5例原发性肿瘤、3例肝包虫病、1例左叶肝脓肿、1例肾肿瘤以及1例有肝脏继发性定位的腹膜后神经母细胞瘤。对所采用的各种方法的结果进行比较分析表明，超声检查可（明确）识别病变；肝内血管受累情况的研究属于血管造影的范畴；超声检查在判断下腔静脉是否可能受累方面虽有重要帮助，但仍需进行腔静脉造影。
