摘要
目的:探讨臂丛神经损伤的MRI表现、分型及应用价值。方法:70例臂丛损伤患者(59例手术,11例经临床随访)术前行MR检查,将术中所见、肌电图及随访结果与MRI结果比较。结果:47例节前损伤患者的196对受损神经根中MR检出176对,准确度、敏感度及特异度为89.1%、89.8%、84.8%。节前损伤征象:①椎管内神经根消失161对;②前后根增粗、僵硬,无法连续追踪至椎间孔处20对;③椎管内脑脊液囊性聚集,假性脊膜膨出96对;④神经根袖形态异常54对;⑤脊髓变形移位79节段;⑥椎间孔区瘢痕形成11对;⑦脊髓损伤5例;⑧椎旁肌肉信号异常42例。节后损伤表现:①神经走行自然,结构及信号与健侧一致2例;②神经连续、走行自然、增粗、信号增高18例;③神经连续、走行僵硬、结构紊乱19例;④神经断裂,断端分离2例;⑤神经断裂,断端假性神经瘤形成2例。臂丛损伤M R表现分型:正常表现型、神经变性水肿型、神经瘢痕纤维化型、神经断裂型、神经根性撕脱伤、混合型。结论:MRI能对臂丛损伤做出准确的诊断,对患者手术方案的制定和预后改善有重要价值。
Purpose:To evaluate MR performance and application in diagnosis and classification of brachial plexus injury.Methods:Seventy cases of brachial plexus injury patients(operation was undertaken in 59 and followed - up exam without operation was done in 11) underwent MR scanning before operation.MR results were compared with the operation findings,electromyogram and following up results. Results:Of these 196 pairs of injured roots,MRI detected 176 pairs.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of MRI in diagnosing preganglionic brachial plexus injury were 89.1%,89.8%and 84.8%, respectively.The signs of preganglionic injury include:①lack or mutilation of nerve root,161 pairs;②coarsening,stiff and can not be traced to the intervertebral foramen continuously,20 pairs;③cystoid cerebrospinal fluid concentrating in vertebral canal,posttraumatic spinal meningocele,96 pairs;④abnormal shape of nerve sleeve,54 pairs;⑤displacement and deformity of spinal cord,79 segments;⑥fibrae scar in intervertebral foramen region,11 pairs;⑦spinal cord injury,5 patients;⑧abnormal signal of paraspinal muscles,42 patients.The signs of postganglionic injury include:①natural courser of the nerve,the same structure and signal intensity with normal side,2 cases;②thickening of the nerve,with continuity and natural courser,and increased intensity,18 cases;③thickening of the nerve,with continuity and stiff courser,19 cases;④losing of continuity completely,with isolated broken ends,2 cases;⑤traumatic nerofibroma,2 cases.The MRI performances of brachial plexus injury contained 6 subtypes: normal appearance,neural degeneration and edema,neural scarification and fibrosis,neurotmesis,root avulsion and the mixed type.Conclusion:MRI can help making a correct diagnosis in brachial plexus injuries,and is important for making treatment plan and improving the prognosis.
