回顾并分析2014年—2022年南京大学医学院附属鼓楼医院经病理学检查证实为乳腺黏液癌的患者63例(共63个肿块),并随机选取同期经病理学检查证实为乳腺纤维腺瘤的50例患者(共50个肿块)为对照组。113个肿块均行乳腺常规超声及应变式弹性成像检查,观察记录肿块大小、形状、边界、弹性评分等,并根据乳腺影像报告和数据系统(Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System,BI-RADS)分类标准分类。其中78例肿块应用剪切波弹性成像技术定量分析。比较两组患者的临床与超声特征差异。
To analyze the clinical characteristics and ultrasonic manifestations of breast mucinous carcinoma and explore the diagnostic value of conventional ultrasound combined with ultrasonic el
astography in breast mucinous carcinoma.
Methods:
The retrospective study analyzed 63 patients (63 masses) with mucinous breast carcinoma confirmed by pathological examination in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital
The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from 2014 to 2022. 50 patients (50 masses) with fibroadenoma confirmed by pathological examination during the same period were randomly selected as the control group. All 113 masses underwent conventional breast ultrasonography and strain elastography to observe and record the mass size
shape
boundary
elasticity score
etc. The masses were also classified according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) classification criteria. Among them
78 masses were quantitatively analyzed using shear wave elastography. The clinical and ultrasonic characteristics of the two groups were compared.
Results:
The sensitivity (85.71%
vs
65.07%)
specificity (94.00%
vs
88.00%)
positive predictive value (94.73%
vs
87.23%)
negative predictive value (83.93%
vs
66.67%) and accuracy (89.38%
vs
75.22%) of conventional ultrasound combined with strain elastography were higher than those of conventional ultrasound alone. The diagnostic consistency Kappa index of conventional ultrasonography combined with strain elastography was higher than that of conventional ultrasound (0.787
vs
0.514). Shear wave elastography showed that the maximum
minimum
and average shear wave velocities of the two groups were (7.26±2.41) m/s
vs
(3.77±1.79) m/s
(3.16±1.09) m/s
vs
(2.23±0.79) m/s
(4.82±1.39) m/s
vs
(2.91±1.02) m/s
respectively
with statistically significant differences (
P
<0.05).
Conclusion:
Conventional ultrasound combined with elastography has certain clinical value in the diagnosis of mucinous breast carcinoma.
