Evaluation of blunt pancreatic injury with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in comparison with contrast-enhanced computed tomography

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to evaluate acute blunt pancreatic injury using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in comparison with contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT). Superficial and deep lesions were established by blunt pancreatic injury in 40 Chinese Guangxi Bama miniature pigs. Conventional ultrasound (US), CEUS and CECT were performed to detect traumatic lesions in the pancreas. A total of 40 lesions were established, including 20 deep lesions and 20 superficial lesions. US identified … Show more

“…In 2013, blunt pancreatic injury was evaluated in 40 miniature pigs using conventional ultrasound, CEUS, and CECT. CEUS detection rates were significantly higher than conventional ultrasound (85% vs 52.5%, P < 0.05), and slightly higher than CECT (85% vs 82.5%, P > 0.05) [23]. Lower detection rates were seen in CECT when the depth of the lesion was less than the slice thickness; a problem that can be avoided by using CEUS.…”

“…Pancreatic contusion and laceration (PCL) is classified as a grade I-II injury based on the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) organ injury scaling (2), with a conservative strategy being recommended as its primary form of management (3). Ultrasound (US)-guided percutaneous intervention (UGPI) plays an important role in the clinical management of PCL, as it is used for the delivery of local drug therapy and fluid drainage (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). In addition, particular precision in the delivery of UGPI is required in PCL because of the retroperitoneal location of the pancreas.…”

“…In another model, following the sharp separation of the distal pancreas and hemostasis with minimal cauterization, a pig PT model was established that exhibited severe inflammation, fibrosis and necrosis ( 8 ). In a third model, the pancreas was squeezed in front of the spine using hemostatic forceps to establish a minipig model with various degrees of PT, and increased levels of amylase and lipase in the serum ( 9 ). Although these models reflect the disease symptoms of PT, they have certain limitations, such as model instability, difficult procedures, unsatisfactory levels of damage and poor clinical applicability.…”
