Ultrasound patterns of metastatic tumors in the gallbladder.

Eleven cases of sonographically detected metastatic disease to the gallbladder are reported. This paper represents the first comprehensive review of the ultrasonographic findings in this not infrequently encountered disease process. Four distinctive sonographic diagnostic patterns have evolved and are described. The suspicion of metastatic tumors in the gallbladder should be raised, particularly in the presence of focal gallbladder wall thickening in association with nonshadowing intraluminal soft tissue masses. In contrast to primary carcinomas of the gallbladder, cholelithiasis usually is absent. The differential diagnosis, which includes various benign conditions of the gallbladder, is discussed.

CT and angiographic correlates: surgical image of renal mass lesions.

Twenty-three consecutive patients with surgically proved renal mass lesions were examined preoperatively by means of computerized tomography (CT) and renal angiography. Histopathology of the 23 renal masses included the following: hypernephroma (17), transitional cell carcinoma (3), oncocytoma (2), benign cyst (1). Computed tomography was correct in the preoperative diagnosis of 21 of 23 masses (91 per cent); angiographic diagnosis was correct in 18 of 23 consecutive masses (78 per cent). Correlation of the findings on CT and angiography resulted in correct diagnosis in 22 of the 23 lesions (96 per cent). Independently, CT and angiography each contribute essential information for diagnosis and preoperative planning. CT discloses anatomic detail, tissue consistency, organ system relationships, and relatively precise estimates of tumor bulk. Angiography remains a necessary complement providing a surgical image of tumor vascularity and vessel origins.

Computed tomography in ileofemoral venous thrombosis: extension to inferior vena cava defined with foot vein infusion.

Two cases of ileofemoral venous thrombosis and occlusion are presented in which cephalad extension of venous thrombosis to the inferior vena cava (IVC) is demonstrated on computed tomography (CT). Proximal venous obstruction does not diminish the utility of foot vein infusion simultaneous with the CT study. Delineation of intraluminal thrombosis in the IVC is excellent with good definition of occluded and patent segments of the IVC.
