目的　探讨超声诊断肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤的价值。方法　对经临床手术及病理证实的 16例肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤的超声检查资料进行回顾性分析 ,总结其声像图特征 ,提出鉴别诊断。结果　肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤的声像图特征为 :肿块一般较大 (3～ 5 cm) ,边界清楚而回声较强 ,形态规则 ,中心常发生液化坏死 ,血流信号丰富。结论　超声对肾上腺嗜铬细胞瘤的诊断具有一定价值。 Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound in the diagnosis of adrenal pheochromocytoma. Methods The clinical data of 16 cases of adrenal pheochromocytoma confirmed by clinical operation and pathology were analyzed retrospectively. The sonography features were summarized and the differential diagnosis was proposed. Results The characteristics of adrenal pheochromocytoma were as follows: the lumps were generally large (3-5 cm), the boundaries were clear and the echoes were strong, the morphology was regular, and liquefaction and necrosis were often found in the center with abundant blood flow signals. Conclusion Ultrasound has some value in the diagnosis of adrenal pheochromocytoma.
