Value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound in improving surgical precision for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans
To investigate the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in improving the surgical precision for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP).
Methods
2
Twenty-three patients with pathologically confirmed DFSP (23 lesions) were enrolled in this study. Before surgical resection of DFSP
the patients received examinations with conventional ultrasound and CEUS to evaluate the perfusion features of the lesions
surgical margins
and tumor dimensions; The differences between the measurements based on the 2 ultrasound modalities and postoperative pathological measurements were analyzed.
Results
2
In all the 23 cases
DFSP showed enhanced perfusion earlier than the surrounding subcutaneous tissue
and the contrast agent was washed out slowly. Seventeen patients presented with rapid contrast agent filling with high and homogeneous perfusion in the tumor compared with the surrounding normal skin; 4 patients showed rapid contrast agent filling and high and inhomogeneous perfusion with filling defects; 2 patients showed iso-enhancement with rapid contrast agent filling. In CEUS
DFSP lesions showed clear and enlarged tumor margins. The tumor dimensions measured by traditional ultrasound and CEUS were significantly different from those by pathological measurements (
P
<
0.05)
but the measurements by CEUS were closer to the pathological measurements.
Conclusion
2
CEUS can show the internal and peripheral microcirculation of DFSP and clearly displays the enlarged tumor margins after contrast enhancement to improve the precision of surgical resection.
