AI Article Synopsis
- Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is when a fertilized egg implants in the scar left by a cesarean delivery, and this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of 2D and 3D ultrasound in diagnosing CSP.
- Researchers analyzed data from 65 patients and found that using both 2D and 3D ultrasound together resulted in a detection rate of 98.46%, outperforming each method used independently.
- The study concluded that the combination of 2D and 3D ultrasounds significantly enhances the accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of CSP diagnosis, making it a valuable tool in clinical practice.
Article Abstract
Background: Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) refers to the phenomenon in which a fertilized egg implants and develops in the scar of the uterus in a woman with a history of cesarean section.
Objective: The study aimed to explore the differential diagnostic value of two-dimensional ultrasound (2D US) combined with three-dimensional ultrasound (3D US) for CSP.
Methods: Clinical data of 89 patients with CSP admitted to our hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 65 patients met the inclusion criteria. Patients underwent 2D US, 3D US, and combined 2D and 3D US imaging. Using the clinical pathological diagnosis as the "gold standard", the differential diagnostic value of 2D US, 3D US, and 2D US combined with 3D US for CSP was compared.
Results: The detection rate of CSP using a combined 2D US and 3D US was 98.46%, which was higher than 84.62% and 89.23% achieved with 2D US and 3D US alone, respectively (P<0.05). The pathological results showed that among 65 patients, CSP type I accounted for 24.62%, type II accounted for 55.38%, and type III accounted for 20.00%. The coincidence rate of 2D US combined with 3D US was 98.46%, which was higher than that of 2D US (83.08%) and 3D US 89.23%) alone (P<0.05). The accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of 2D US combined with 3D US in diagnosing CSP were higher compared to the two methods alone (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The combination of 2D US and 3D US can accurately detect and classify CSP, further improving diagnostic efficiency.
