Abstract

Objective To study the MRI manifestation of endometriosis cyst rupture. Methods Collected the MRI data of 23 patients with ECR treated in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2015, and analyzed the T1WI and T2WI manifestation. Results About 60.87%(14/23) of ECR shown high signal both on T1WI and T2WI, and on the T2 fat suppression sequences the signal did not reduce, and there were 21.74%(5/23) of ECR shown mild low signal on T1WI and T2WI, about 17.39%(4/23) shown low signal both on T1WI and T2WI, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were 18 cases complicated with pelvic hematocele, 5 cases complicated with intestinal and uterine adhesion, liquid-liquid plane could be seen in most of the cases(65.22%). Conclusion MRI had high application value in the diagnosis of ECR, and comprehensive grasp of the manifestation helps to improve the diagnosis rate.
