Abstract

Aim The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence and  clinical significance of extracolonic findings in the screening  population undergoing computed tomography (CT)  colonography. Material and Methods A total of 52 patients (24 females, 28 males) have been included  in this study. CT colonography has been performed  1 or 2 days after optic colonoscopy. Patient history and the  results of optic colonoscopy have never been informed to  the radiologist. Extracolonic findings were classified as normal, minor, moderate and major by CT colonography  reporting and data system. Results A total of 75 extracolonic findings have been recorded  and 75% of patients (39/52) had at least one extracolonic  finding. Nineteen patients (36.5%) had more than one  extracolonic findings. In total, 59 (59/75= 79%) minor, 7  (7/75= 9%) moderate and 9 (9/75= 12%) major extracolonic  findings were found. Four of 11 colorectal cancer patients  had moderate findings and 7 of colorectal cancer patients  had major findings. Extracolonic significant findings were  mostly seen in patients with colorectal cancer. Conclusion The evaluation of extracolonic findings on CT colonography  with using intravenous contrast material in colorectal  cancer patients is critical because important extracolonic  findings of this patient can be effect his/her survey. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 8.0px Helvetica; color: #6b6a6a}

Özet

p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 8.0px Helvetica; color: #6b6a6a} Amaç Bu çalışmada, bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) kolonografi yapılan  hastalardaki kolon dışı bulguların sıklığı ve klinik  öneminin araştırılması amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem Toplamda 52 (24 kadın, 28 erkek) olgu çalışmaya dahil  edildi. BT kolonografi optik kolonoskopiden 1-2 gün sonra  gerçekleştirildi. Tetkikler, hasta öyküsü ve optik kolonoskopi  verilerini bilmeyen bir radyolog tarafından raporlandı.  Kolon dışı bulgular; BT kolonografi raporlama ve veri  sistemine uygun olarak normal, minör, orta ve majör derecede  önemli olarak sınıflandı. Bulgular Hastaların %75’i (39/52) en az bir ekstrakolonik bulguya  sahipti. 19 hastada (%36,5) birden fazla kolon dışı bulgu  gözlendi. Toplamda 75 kolon dışı bulgu saptandı. Bunlardan  59’u (59/75=%75) minör, 7’si (7/75= %9) orta ve 9’u  (9/75= %12) majör derecede önemli kolon dışı bulgulardı.  11 kolorektal kanserli olgudan 4’ü orta, 7’si ağır kolon dışı  bulguya sahipti. Ağır kolon dışı bulgular kolorektal kanser  olgularında görüldü. Sonuç Orta ve yüksek önem dereceli kolon dışı bulguların hastanın  yaşam beklentisi üzerine etkisi olduğundan, intravenöz  kontrast madde kullanılarak yapılan BT kolonografilerde  kolon dışı bulguların da değerlendirilmesi çok  önemlidir.
