Abstract:

The ultrasonographic images of 11 patients with ureteral tuberculosis confirmed by pathology or laboratory examination were retrospectively analyzed. According to the ultrasonographic images, 11 cases of ureteral tuberculosis with thickened wall could be divided into two types: 3 cases of segmental thickening type, single or multiple, each lesion was less than 3 cm in length, the thickness from 0.2 to 0.4 cm, the mucosal layer of the wall was localized rough and thickened, showing low or high echo, the color flow signal was not obvious, with ureteric irregular thinning and narrowing. In 8 cases with diffuse thickening type, the length of the lesion was more than 3 cm, of which 1 case was a whole-course lesion with symmetrical or asymmetric thickening, and the thickness from 0.3 to 0.6 cm. The thickened tube wall echo was uneven, and the mucosal surface was smooth. Ultrasound examination can display the degree of wall thickening and internal echo of ureteral tuberculosis, which has high application value in the diagnosis and monitoring of ureteral tuberculosis.
