Objective To discuss the value of CT combined with MRI in defining the localization and qualitative diagnosis of female pelvic tuberculosis mass. Methods A total of 20 cases of pelvic tuberculosis mass patients which confirmed by pathology were enrolled in our study, all cases underwent CT and MRI scans. Results Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in serum increased in all patients in varying degrees, cancer antigen CA199(CA199) increased in 5 cases. There were 6 cases with complete cystic changes, and 11 cases were cystic-solid masses, 3 cases were solid mass. All the cases showed different degree of ascites. And there were 15 cases with varying degrees of peritoneal thickening, or linear, nodular shape of tihckening. Lymph nodes enlargement were found in 10 cases, and 7cases were misdiagnosed by CT while 6cases were misdiagnosed by MRI. Conclusion With a comprehensive analysis of MSCT combined with MRI , we can improve the accuracy rate in the diagnosis of pelvic tuberculosis mass, and can provide more information for clinic to alleviate the psychological burden and pressure of patients with pelvic tuberculosis mass.
