摘要: 目的:探讨肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤(AML)术前误诊为肾癌的重要因素,总结诊治经验以指导临床。方法:回顾性分析我院2014年5月~2018年3月36例误诊为肾癌的肾AML患者的临床资料。筛选同期96例典型肾AML作为肾AML对照组及132例肾透明细胞癌作为肾癌对照组,将研究组分别与肾AML对照组和肾癌对照组进行比较分析。结果:与肾AML对照组比较,研究组肿瘤最大径更小[(3.69±3.06) cm vs.(5.77±3.45) cm],超声低回声比例更高(58.82% vs.3.06%),CT可见脂肪密度比例较低(5.56% vs.98.98%),接受保留肾单位手术患者比例更低(75.00% vs.90.82%),两组比较差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。与肾癌对照组比较,研究组肿瘤最大径更小[(3.69±3.06) cm vs.(4.60±2.15) cm],接受保留肾单位手术患者比例更高(75.00% vs.49.24%),差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05);研究组和肾癌对照组CT可见脂肪密度的比例分别为5.56%和1.51%,差异无统计学意义。结论:肿瘤较小且脂肪密度低的肾AML极易误诊为肾癌,超声低回声及CT不可见脂肪密度是其特征,超声、CT、MRI等新技术有助于鉴别诊断。对于性质难以确定的肾肿瘤,当肿瘤<4 cm或有条件实施保留肾单位手术时,可行保留肾单位手术以免过度治疗。Abstract: Objective: To explore the important factors involved in misdiagnosing angiomyolipoma(AML) as renal cell carcinoma(RCC) preoperatively, and summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience to guide clinical work. Method: We retrospectively analysed the clinical manifestations and imaging data of 36 renal AML patients which were misdiagnosed as RCC before surgery from May 2014 to March 2018. Then we randomly selected 96 cases of renal AML and 132 cases of RCC at the same time as control groups. Pertinent data of the study group and its matched control groups were recorded and analyzed. Result: Compared with the renal AML control group, the misdiagnosed AML group had smaller mean tumor size[(3.69±3.06) cm vs.(5.77±3.45) cm, P<0.05]. The proportion of misdiagnosed AML patients with hypoechoic on ultrasonography was higher(58.82% vs. 3.06%, P<0.05), and the proportion of patients with fat density on CT was significantly lower(5.56% vs. 98.98%, P<0.05). Compared with the RCC control group, the misdiagnosed AML group's mean tumor size was smaller[(3.69±3.06) cm vs.(4.60±2.15) cm, P<0.05]. The proportion of patients undergoing partial nephrectomy was higher(75.00% vs. 49.24%, P<0.05), but the proportion of patients with fat density on CT has no statistical significance(5.56% vs. 1.51%).Conclusion: The misdiagnosed AML of the kidney is frequently seen in people with small tumor size and low fat density. The hypoechoic on ultrasonography and the absence of fat density on CT are the major characteristics. The development of new technologies such as ultrasonography, CT, and MRI may contribute to the diagnosis of benign and malignant renal tumors. For cases with difficult clinical diagnosis, if the tumor size is <4 cm, partial nephrectomy can be used to avoid excessive treatment.
