Gastric Schwannoma Diagnosed by Endoscopic Ultrasonography-Guided Trucut Biopsy
Schwannomas of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are rare subepithelial tumors comprising approximately 3.3% to 12.8% of all mesenchymal tumors of the GI tract. On endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) they are seen as hypoechoic tumors arising most commonly from the 4th proper muscle layer. Although EUS helps to distinguish tumor characteristics, tissue sampling is required for differentiation with other ...
متن کاملMediastinal Schwannoma Diagnosed by Endoscopic Ultrasonography-Guided Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
Schwannoma is the most common neurogenic tumor that is derived from the peripheral nerve sheath. There are no specific serologic markers or characteristic imaging abnormalities associated with schwannoma. Tissue diagnosis and immunohistochemistry are required to diagnose this lesion. We describe a 65-year-old male with a finding of three mass lesions in the superior and middle mediastinum on co...
متن کاملThe combined use of duplex ultrasonography and magnetic resonance angiography most accurately diagnosed carotid artery stenosis.
D e s c r i p t i o n o f t e s t s a n d d i a g n o s t i c s t a n d a r d DUS, MRA, and DSA were done within 4 weeks. The degree of stenosis on DUS was based on the peak systolic velocity (PSV) in the proximal internal carotid artery; analysis of DUS was based on a threshold of 70% stenosis, represented by a PSV of 270 cm/s. DSA was the diagnostic standard: A positive test result was define...
متن کاملVertebrobasilar transcranial color-coded duplex ultrasonography: improvement with echo enhancement.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The diagnostic yield of vertebrobasilar transcranial color-coded duplex ultrasonography (US) is often hampered by insufficient acoustic penetration, anatomic variations, and vessel tortousity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of echo enhancement on vertebrobasilar transcranial color-coded duplex US. METHODS In 23 consecutive patients (mean age, 61.0 ...
متن کاملRenal artery stenosis: evaluation with colour duplex ultrasonography.
BACKGROUND Detection of renal artery stenoses (RAS) by means of duplex Doppler ultrasound with direct scanning of the main renal arteries is subject to numerous limitations. Using semiquantitative analysis of the Doppler curve, which can be recorded from intrarenal arteries, it is possible to detect RAS unaffected by the problems of direct Doppler scanning of the renal arteries. METHODS Both ...
