Objective: To discuss the clinical application value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in testicular occupied lesions.
Methods: Nine conventional-ultrasound-found testicular occupied lesions which underwent CEUS meantime were analyzed retrospectively. The CEUS perfusion pattern was compared with the surgical pathological result or follow-up findings.
Results: Among all the 9 testicular occupied lesions, there were 5 testicular malignant tumors, 1 testicular benign tumor, 1 testicular tuberculosis, and 2 testicular hematomas. CEUS diagnosed 6 testicular malignant tumors, 1 testicular benign tumor, and 2 testicular hematomas, and its diagnostic accuracy was about 88.9%.
Conclusion: CEUS has high clinical application value in the differential diagnoses of benign and malignant testicular occupied lesions.
