Abstract
Objectives: Analyze the clinical and ultrasound characteristics of 15 cases of abdominal pregnancy (AP) to improve the ultrasonography-based diagnosis.
Methods: A retrospective research of AP patients from 2010 to 2021 with pathology was performed, clinical and ultrasound characteristics were analyzed and summarized.
Results: Fifteen cases of AP occurred in early pregnancy. Most cases of AP were implanted in the pelvic cavity, with a few on the greater omentum and diaphragm, etc. Eight cases showed mixed hyperechoic, four cases had gestational sacs, and three cases exhibited mixed hypoechoic.
Conclusion: Combined with the characteristics of AP, ultrasound can provide a valuable diagnosis.
目的:分析15例腹腔妊娠(AP)的临床和超声特征:分析15例腹腔妊娠(AP)的临床和超声特征,以提高超声诊断水平:对2010年至2021年有病理结果的腹腔妊娠患者进行回顾性研究,分析并总结其临床和超声特征:结果:15 例 AP 发生在妊娠早期。大多数 AP 植入盆腔,少数植入大网膜和膈肌等部位。8例表现为混合性高回声,4例有妊娠囊,3例表现为混合性低回声:结论:结合 AP 的特征,超声检查可提供有价值的诊断。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography.
The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents.
JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
