Özet
Mediastinal lipomatozis, belirgin kapsüllü bir tümör oluşturmadan mediastinal yağ dokusunun yaygın artışıdır ve çoğu kez tesadüfen fark edilir. BT, yağın makroskopik atenüasyonunu, dağılımın simetrisini ve damarlar ile organların bu yağ içinden doğal biçimde geçip geçmediğini gösterir. Bu görünüm mediastinal kitle izlenimi yaratabilir; ancak yaygın dağılım ve korunmuş anatomik planlar fokal neoplaziden ayrımı sağlar. Mediastinal lipomatozis kitle benzeri görünümlerle karışabileceğinden, BT'de yağ içeriği ve lezyonun doku bileşimi değerlendirilmelidir.
Faz ve pencere
- Kontrastsız tanısal
- Yağ dokusu mediastinal kompartımanlarda yaygın, çoğu kez simetrik ve düşük atenüasyonlu görünür; çevrelenen damar ve organların sınırları izlenebilir. Bu faz, yağ atenüasyonunu belirlemek için tanısaldır.
Önerilen pencereler: Mediasten (G 350 / M 50), Yumuşak doku (G 400 / M 40).
BT bulguları
- Prevasküler alanda sınırlı kalmayıp birden fazla mediastinal kompartımana yayılan, kitle oluşturmayan yağ artışı.
- Mediastinal yağ artışının kitle oluşturmadan birden fazla kompartımana yayılan, diffüz ve non-kapsüllü biçimde dağılması.
- Aorta, vena kava superior, pulmoner damarlar ve kalbin yağla sarılmasına karşın konturların seçilmesi.
- Damarların doğal seyirlerini koruması ve yağ planları içinde yer değiştirmeden izlenebilmesi.
- Belirgin kapsül veya tek bir çıkış noktası olmaması, fokal lipom ya da timolipomdan ayrımı sağlar.
- Aşırı yağlanma trakea, bronş veya venöz yapılarda bası yapabilir; bu durum dağılımı tanımlamakla birlikte ayrıca raporlanır.
- Mediastinal yağ dokusu BT’de makroskopik yağ içeriyorsa saptanabilir; kaynaklar belirli bir HU aralığını veya ROI ölçüm tekniğini doğrulamıyor.
Normalde
Mediastinal yağın BT’de tanınması, makroskopik yağ içeriğinin görüntülenebilmesine bağlıdır.
Normal BT ile kıyasla
Aynı bölgenin, kaynak veri setinde patoloji içermediği belirtilen bir BT incelemesini kesit kesit kaydırın; organ sınırlarını açarak anatomiyi hasta görüntüsüyle karşılaştırın. Küçük rastlantısal bulgular tümüyle dışlanmamıştır.
Kaynak: TotalSegmentator v2.01 veri seti (Wasserthal ve ark., Radiology: Artificial Intelligence 2023), CC BY 4.0, vaka s1278; organ sınırları veri setinin otomatik segmentasyonundan, birleştirilerek sadeleştirildi. Görüntüler 2,5 mm kesit aralığına yeniden örneklendi.
Ayırıcı tanı
- Mediastinal lipom
- kapsüllü veya iyi sınırlı, fokal ve homojen yağ atenüasyonlu kitle.
- Timolipom, mediastinal kitlelerin ayırıcı tanısında düşünülmesi gereken nadir ve benign bir timus lezyonudur.
- Liposarkom
- kalın/düzensiz septa, nodüler yumuşak doku ve komşu planlara infiltrasyon.
- Morgagni hernisi
- ön diyafram defektinden uzanan omental yağ ve takip edilebilir damarlar.
- Mediastinal lipomatozis, mediastende fazla yağ dokusu birikimidir.
Tuzaklar
- Geniş mediastinal silüeti tek başına solid kitle kabul etme; yumuşak doku penceresinde attenüasyonu ölçüp yağ olduğunu doğrula.
- Yağ dokusu içindeki damar ve yapıları kitlenin septası ya da yumuşak doku bileşeni sanma; gerçek septa kalınlığı ve nodülarite benign-malign ayrımında belirleyici risk ölçütleridir.
- Yaygın yağlanma içindeki odaksal yumuşak doku nodülünü lipomatozise bağlama; ayrı odak olarak karakterize et.
- Kitle etkisini yalnız görüntü genişliğine göre varsayma; trakea, ana bronş, SVC ve kalp konturunda gerçek bası/yer değiştirme ara.
Kendini dene
Mediastinal lipomatoziste biriken dokunun niteliği hangisidir?
Cevabı göster
Olgun yağ dokusu. Mediastinal lipomatozis, mediastende olgun yağ dokusunun birikmesidir.
Mediastinal kitlelerin değerlendirilmesinde BT'nin temel katkılarından biri nedir?
Cevabı göster
Doku bileşimini değerlendirmek. BT, mediastinal kitlelerde sıvı, yağ ve kalsifikasyon dahil doku bileşimini değerlendirebilir.
