Use of up-to-date ultrasound technologies in the diagnosis of metastatic ovarian tumors in gastric cancer

Abstract

We analyzed the results of ultrasound and postoperative histological studies of 14 patients with primary diagnosis of gastric cancer who received treatment at the cancer research center in 2014. Metastases to the ovaries detected in all cases with disseminated gastric cancer as the primary diagnosis, and in monitoring the effectiveness of treatment. The most characteristic ultrasound signs of metastatic ovarian tumors. When elastography in all cases, metastatic the affected ovaries were determined in the solid sections of the component of high-density (stiffness), charterhouses type 5 (blue), the average rigidity coefficient was 10.2–32.2. Solid-cystic masses in cases of tumor were mapped to 4 of Krukenberg type (which met as the dense and elastic stretches, charterhouses blue and green colors).
