The Ultrasound Diagnosis of Abdominal Wall Scar Endometriosis

Objective To discuss the two-dimensional and colored Doppler supersonic characteristics of abdominal wall scar endometriosis.Methods The supersonic images of 15 cases with abdominal wall scar endometriosis,which confirmed by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results The region of abdominal wall scar present as low level echo lump shade,with obscure boundary,irregular shape and uneven interior.The colored Doppler flow imaging demonstrated that the periphery blood stream signal was rich.Doppler frequency characterized as low speed high-resistance.PSV 6.5~19 cm/s,RI 0.71~0.85.Conclusions Colored Doppler ultrasound is helpful to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the abdominal wall scar endometriosis.
