摘要
目的探讨自身免疫性胰腺炎(AIP)的CT表现特征。方法收集4例经临床、实验室检查和类固醇激素治疗有效的AIP患者的CT资料。CT检查包括平扫、双期(动脉期和门静脉期)增强扫描,在CT图像上观察胰腺的形态、大小、质地、强化程度、胰管、胰腺边缘、胰周及腹膜后各间隙等情况并分析AIP的CT表现特征。结果3例AIP表现为胰腺弥漫性肿大,1例为胰头的局限性肿大;病变区域胰腺实质在动脉期强化减弱但出现明显的延时强化;2例在胰腺病变区周围环绕包膜样结构;2例伴胆总管胰头段狭窄,1例ERCP显示胰管不规则狭窄;经类固醇激素治疗后,CT复查显示胰腺情况明显好转。结论AIP的CT表现具有一定的特征性。
Objective To investigate the CT imaging features of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) with report of 4 cases and literature review. Methods The CT imaging data of 4 AIP patients proved on the basis of clinical findings, laboratory tests, response to steroids therapy and follow-up observation were retrospectively collected. Plain CT and contrast-enhanced dual phase CT scan at arterial and portal venous phases were performed for all 4 patients. All imaging data were reviewed, focusing on the shape, size, parenchyma density and enhancement patterns of the pancreas, as well as the biliary and pancreatic ducts, peripancreatic fat, blood vessels, retroperitoneal spaces, lymph nodes, and other positive findings. Results Three patients showed diffuse swelling of the pancreas on CT and 1 had focal enlargement of pancreatic head. Swelled pancreas was hypodense on plain CT images, showed decreased enhancement on artery phase and moderate enhancement on portal venous phase images of contrast-enhanced CT. Capsule-like enhanced rim was found around swelled pancreas in 2 patients. Stricture of distal common bile duct was present in 2 patients, and ERCP showed irregular narrowing of the main pancreatic duct in 1 cases. After steroid therapy, all patients showed significant morphological improvement of the pancreas at follow-up CT examina- tion. Conclusion CT scan reveals certain characteristic imaging findings of AlP, thus it is helpful for the diagnosis of AIP.
